The Guyver is a 1991 American Science fiction Tokusatsu film loosely based on the Manga series of the same name. The film tells of a young man, Sean Baker who discovers an alien artifact called The Unit which manifests Baker into a alien-hybrid super soldier called The Guyver. Baker learns that a major corporation called Chronos is after The Guyver Unit and soon discovers that the people behind Chronos are not human after all. The film was met with a mixed to negative reaction from critics and fans. A sequel was followed in 1994 called Guyver: Dark Hero, which was received more favorably... than its predecessor. CIA agent Max Reed witnesses Dr. Tetsu Segawa—a researcher for the mysterious Chronos Corporation—being murdered. Dr. Segawa had stolen an alien device known as “the Guyver” from Chronos. College student Sean Barker, whose girlfriend’s father was Dr. Segawa, finds the Guyver’s hiding spot while watching the forensic team investigating the crime scene. Through further events, the Guyver fuses with Sean and causes him to be covered in a suit of bio-armor.
