Movies At Random: Masked Rider The First

Masked Rider The First (HU DVD 11528) has got to be one of the more intriguing things I've pulled off the shelf in a while. Like a lot of live action movies based on anime, the plot sounds completely bizarre when you read it. According to Wikipedia, the movie is based on a popular manga that also became a TV show.

I mean, based on the trailer, it looks like bug themed Power Rangers?? I don't know. Just weird.

Here's our summary:

Transformed into a locust-human hybrid by a nefarious organization known only as Shocker, a once-normal man makes it his mission to bring down the group that destroyed his life once and for all.

And here's the trailer:
Happy viewing!
