When a disastrous experiment unleashes monstrous Blazers from another dimension, Dr. Maxey's invention threatens to consume Earth. His assistant, Jerry Bivins, and Bivins' courageous daughter Dora daringly step forth to challenge the unforeseen cataclysm, but their bold actions through alien realms ultimately warp the known realities of Earth.
