The 6 Ultra Brothers Vs. the Monster Army (ウルトラ6兄弟VS怪獣軍団 - Urutora Roku Kyôdai tai Kaijû Gundan), known in Thailand as Hanuman and the 7 Ultramen (หนุมาน พบ 7 ยอดมนุษย์ - Hanuman pob Jed Yodmanud) is a tokusatsu SF/kaiju/superhero film produced in 1974 by Tsuburaya Productions of Japan and Chaiyo Productions of Thailand. It was released theatrically in Japan on March 17, 1979.

This film has the Ultra Brothers, Ultraman, Zoffy, Ultra Seven, New Ultraman (Ultraman Jack), Ultraman Ace and Ultraman Taro, teaming up with the Hindu monkey-god Hanuman (who was transformed by Ultra Mother from a young Thai boy who was cruelly murdered by a group of robbers) to fight 5 evil monsters: Gomora (from Ultraman
), Dustpan (originally from Mirrorman), Astromons, Tyranto and Dorobon (all from Ultraman Taro
), which were accidentally awakened by a rocket test gone terribly wrong.

Trivia

This film, along with Jumborg Ace & Giant
, marked the only time Tsuburaya Productions and Chaiyo Productions officially worked together. Decades after this film was made, relations between the two companies have deteriorated, leading to the current court battle (more details here) over rights to the Ultraman characters (specifically the ones depicted in this film).

Hanuman is, of course, based on the actual Hindu god of the same name.
