The Moon Mask Rider

Released theatrically on March 14, 1981, The Moon Mask Rider features a narrative centered around a superhero and a religious cult. The film is often regarded as Japan's response to the American film The Legend of the Lone Ranger, which also premiered in the same year.

Starring Daisuke Kuwabara as George Owara, the new alter-ego of the Moon Mask Rider, the film includes performances from Etsuko Shihomi, Daijirō Harada, Junichi Inoue, and others. The film's appeal lies in its blend of action and adventure, characteristic of the tokusatsu genre, making it a fascinating piece for collectors interested in unique cinematic experiences from Japan's film history.
