Review title: One of the BEST Martial Arts Films made!
Product review: Okay... Sho Kosugi (star) and Sam Firstenberg's (director) first efforts (excluding Kosugi's minor appearance in "Enter the Ninja").Though full of holes in the story, this is THE BEST ninja flick made. Full of action, excessive-gore, unneeded nudity and language, it has everything you can ask for in a "popcorn-movie". Don't forget it was made in 1983 -- AND for around $850,000 (low-budget at that time still).The only thing that puzzles me is that the theatrical version is different then the video versions. HBO showed the theatrical version (with extented scenes with blood and gore), but for some reason MGM/UA decided to cut a few gory moments from the video release. Almost 20 years later, I still don't understand why: They were both rated-R so why cut anything?But sit back and enjoy this popcorn-flick -- BUT only if you enjoy the action-films of the 80s!
