Several years after being subjugated to an inhumane experiment, Masaru Asou wakes up in a forest, hearing the cries of an unknown voice to protect Hiroshi Mochizuki, the son of the scientist who experimented on him. Hiroshi's life is endangered by a humanoid monster, but is saved by Masaru, who becomes the cyborg Kamen Rider ZO. Masaru then realizes that Professor Mochizuki has gone missing for the past two years and the "Neo-Organism" experiment he was working on had cultivated to the monster that attacked Hiroshi. But when Hiroshi is abducted by the Neo-Organism, Kamen Rider ZO rushes to save him and find out the true whereabouts of Professor Mochizuki. Edit Translation

Reviews
a great execution of the kamen rider series's main idea
kamen rider ZO executed the kamen rider series's "using the power of evil for good" idea extremely well, ZO's design is fantastic and so are the monster designs, the cast and acting is good, i liked all of the characters (though some got pushed to the side) one of the main complaints i had is that it feels like it is a continuation of something but the info the movie gives you is already enough to understand who these characters are, i do think this movie is a good starting point if you want to dive in to the kamen rider series
̶S̶o̶ ZO Good
With its beautifully designed suits, fun to watch practical effects including moments of stop-motion, and foreboding atmosphere, this really feels like it hearkens back to the feeling the Original 13 episodes of classic Kamen Rider Ichigo. I love the tone of this one - the unsettling atmosphere and the insurmountable feeling of the main villain of this special gives it a action-horror feeling all to reminiscent of 70's anime OVAs. There's a single-take action shot in this movie that's done beautifully. The soundtrack is energetic when it needs to be and really exciting. I really wish that this movie had a longer run time, just because I'd like to have had some more opportunities to see the main character's struggle. However, what's here is a good and classic Kamen Rider feeling movie with an added grittiness in a short burst.
