Review | THE GUYVER - DATA 1 to DATA 12 (12 vols.) THE GUYVER (Manga Video) 28 min, cert. 15, Vol. 1 of 12. £5.99 ea. The GUYVER is a mysterious alien bio-engineered armour. A school student finds it, and gets mixed up with some bad guys who transform into bio- engineered bipedal monsters. Scenes from the "Hellcat" original comic strip, which seems to have been penned by 18 yr. old horror fetishists, appear inside the box sleeve. Adults may find GUYVER well- animated but avoidable. It's juvenile stuff, but exciting and quite well produced. My young nephew likes it. The series has been in the video charts, mainly because of the low price. |
