Hanuman and the Five Kamen Riders

1975 · 106 min

A cheesy, fast-paced superhero romp with rubber-suited monsters and a mythological hero, played with earnest camp and low-budget charm.

He is opposed by the Monkey King and five supermen from different nations who prevent the capture of women and children needed for his survival." - Singaporean Newspaper Write Up . Semi-official Thai/Japan co-production between Chaiyo and Toei. Toei allowed the usage of the Five Riders vs. King Dark film while Chaiyo forgot to license the characters out (Source: Dubbing Wiki).
