Taken from footage of Super Robot Mach Baron - the sequel to Super Robot Red Baron - this Hong Kong version predates the notion of using native actors within a Japanese show that Power Rangers would perfect a decade or more later.
Stranger still, this was released in Spain as Spain Mazinger Z - El robot de las Estrellas, even though Go Nagai's famous robot is nowhere to be found.
The Universal Rescue team and their Super Iron Robot struggle to battle the evil that is within the Bermuda Triangle in a movie that smashes together an entire season of a TV show into 86 or so minutes. So you know that it's going to make no sense - and therefore be awesome - before you even start playing it.
Stephan Yip, who directed Lady Exterminator, acts in this, as does Godfrey Ho, who is probably better known for his multiple ninja movies and insanity like Robo Vampire, Scorpion Thunderbolt and Kickboxer from Hell.
This was originally directed by Koichi Takano, who did the puppet effects in King Kong vs. Godzilla before doing the effects for several Ultraman series, including Ultraman: Tiga, Ultraman Towards the Future, Ultraman 80 and Ultraman Leo.
