043 – The Walking Dead Kaijin (Kamen Rider Eps. 66-67)
Description
Nathan and Travis come to another pair of momentous episodes of Kamen Rider (1971). In the first, they learn that, just like Ultraman and Power Rangers, Kamen Rider has a monster graveyard—except in this one, Shocker performs demonic rituals with crosses made of skulls to resurrect dead kaijin. They never raise the dead the same way twice, do they? As epic as this is, in the next episode, the villains hold the Shocker World Conference (aka “Shocker-Con”). Hongo/Kamen Rider crashes this party of incredibly boring supervillains to learn the true identity of the Shocker Leader. But as a famous Mon Calamari once said, “It’s a trap!” Your intrepid hosts also ask one very important question about these episodes: Where the heck is Fujioka?
