Movie Edition: Kamen Rider Kiva: The King of Hell Castle (劇場版 仮面ライダーキバ 魔界城の王 Gekijōban Kamen Raidā Kiba Makaijō no Ō?) is the theatrical film adaptation of the 2008 Kamen Rider series, Kamen Rider Kiva.

The film is produced by Ishimori Productions and Toei, the producers of all the previous television series and films under the Kamen Rider franchise. Following the tradition of all Heisei Kamen Rider movies, it is a double bill with 2008's Super Sentai movie, Engine Sentai Go-onger: Boom Boom! Bang Bang! GekijōBang!!, both of which will premiere on August 9, 2008. The film's title is translated into English as Masked Rider Kiva The Movie: The King of Hell Castle.

[edit] Production

The King of Hell Castle features two new Riders, the first of which was shown in silhouette in Japanese children's magazines, Kamen Rider Rey[1], who is a monster hunter named Takato Shiramine played by Syouma Yamamoto. He is partnered to Rey Kivat (Yukivat) (レイキバット(ユキバット) Reikibatto (Yukibatto)?, voiced by Norio Wakamoto) and belongs to an organization called the 3WA (World Wide Wing Association) (3WA(ワールド・ワイド・ウィング・アソシエーション) Wārudo Waido Wingu Asoshiēshon?) to which Keisuke Nago once belonged. The villian of the movie is Takashi Sugimura who is a death-row inmate and transforms into the black and horned Kamen Rider Arc, portrayed by Ken Horiuchi of the comedy troupe Neptune.[2] Arc is to be the tallest Rider without the use of powers at 3.2 m tall.[3][4] Also guest starring is Gal Sone, who will play a Medusa-like villainess named Sayaka who aids Arc. She will also show off her competitive eating skills as part of the role.[5] Toshihiko Seki, Kōji Yusa, Masaki Terasoma, Kenichi Suzumura, and Rina Akiyama of the Den-O cast are all to have cameo appearances in the film.

[edit] Internet spin-off film

On June 2, 2008, Toei announced on its various official websites that there would be a series of short five-minute internet movies that are spin-offs of both The King of Hell Castle and Boom Boom! Bang Bang! GekijōBang!! to be accessed by a mobile phone service. In the case of The King of Hell Castle, the featurettes are called Net Edition: Kamen Rider Backwards-Kiva: The Queen of Hell Castle (ネット版 仮面ライダー裏キバ 魔界城の女王 Nettoban Kamen Raidā Urakiba: Makaijō no Joō?). The internet films are set to be released on July 11, 2008.[6][7][8]
