Verbatim Box Synopsis
A rebel civilization in a far-off galaxy embark on a mission to capture and exploit the planet Earth. With it's gigantic spaceship their leader assembles a massive army of robots and the battle begins.
Thanks to the special metal from which their inter-galactic space transporter is constructed they break through the Earth's protective safety shield.
Meanwhile, the authorities on Earth are now convinced that normal means of defence will not stand in the way of the superior fire-power of the aliens.
A team of experts are recruited to formulate a strategy for defending the Earth.
Daring fights and large scale spectacular battles between the star-fighters of Earth and the space-transporters of the enemy continue.
Metallica ... full of action, suspense, a science fiction movie with a difference.

(At the time of this tape's release, Metallica's Master of Puppets album had already been officially certified gold and was making a 72-week run on Billboard's Top 200 chart. The band was also in the news following the death of their bassist, Cliff Burton, and their search for his replacement. Way to ride them coattails, Mogul!)
