So I just finished the Kamen Rider ZO film and wow...that was terrible.

I loved the Neo Life Form, he was a fantastic villain but also a fantastically built suit, it's a shame he was condemned to this film because I think he could have become quite iconic if he was utilised elsewhere. I'd love to see him fight with the stuff that seemed to inspire him, like The Terminator, a Xenomorph and The Predator.

But everything else about this film was just terrible, ZO would probably be my new least favourite Rider but there is so little to him in the human form, and so little to him in his Rider form, that almost feels wrong to award him anything, even if it is Worst Rider. Once again, it's a shame, because the actual ZO suit is fantastic.

Then again 'nothing to it' kind of sums up the whole movie, even the central plot of father and son is told in a stupidly overly melodramatic fashion, while taking itself so deadly seriously, any attempts to bridge emotional connections to the audience are laughable.

Finally the special effects were atrocious, minus ZO and Neo's suits, I would have assumed this film was made in the late seventies with those effects, not the early 90s
