Plot Summary: When a spaceship crashes near a small town in the American West, an inexperienced
U.S. Marshal must lead a mixed band of Union and Confederate veterans in a desperate attempt
to restore the Union ironclad Monitor with the new technology and stop an alien invasion.
Production Notes: This 1962 American-Japanese 3-D animated Western was never finished because of
technical problems with the 3-D process (several animators had nervous breakdowns drawing the blue and
red artwork). Parts of the plot would later be used in the "Yamato" and
"Macross" series.
