80's Ninja Movies

[Spawn67]

Anyone remember the movies Enter The Ninja, Revenge of the Ninja and Ninja 3:The Domination.
I was just watching some of them on youtube.I used to love those movies back in the day.Its been well over 20 years since Ive seen them and I can't believe how much scenes I remember. Our Local Mom and Pop Video store (remember those?) would have those silly movies reserved for weeks! I must have rented those movies a dozen times..hehe.
Anyone know if they ever made them on Dvd?

revenge of the ninja was released on US (MGM) and Japanese dvd. The MGM disc though is actually the uncut version of the film which we never had previously before in the US. The Japanese disc is widescreen however (not verified if it is a matted full frame or a true scope film) it is the cut down version we normally had in the US before the dvd came out

FUn stuff! I remember being a worshipper of Sho Kosugi even if we was mostly a villain. I even bought a few ninja magazines to learn some moves. I also remember American Ninja starring Michael Dudikoff. What a terribly wonderful movie.

Ninjas rule!

Sho Kosugi ... :smiley1:
I watched a couple of His Flicks..., I remember Van Damn in 1 of them ...., I had a Buddy that was a Huge Fan.


.. The Micheal Dudikoff Ninja Flicks were Fun ..., + He's got Dude in His Name. :grin:

My All Time Fav was Big Trouble in Little China though ...., That has Everything, + Russel's Pompusass character is Just so fun. :smiley1:

Kosugi formed a school in San Francisco for Asian actors to quickly learn English and get auditions. He's also starring in Ninja Assasin later this year. He was always a class act.

Big Trouble is in my top 15 all-time. What a goofy, fun flick. Let's see how long a ninja thread goes...

Anyone see that New Segal Movie yet ? ... Saw it at Walmart... I guess he is fighting Vampires in the Movie..., I will Admit ... I was Interested.... :please_y:

I loved them! I also really enjoyed the first two American Ninja movies. Sho Kosugi was great fun to watch, though. I read that he and his son were making another Ninja movie, but I guess it never happened.

I loved Sho Kosugi growing up in the 80's and was one of my favorites.He will be in Ninja Assassin in November as Lord Ozunu.Movie looks pretty cool and its been a while on a ninja flick.:wink_y:

Oooh, I still bust out the American Ninja hand thang... if you open the pinkies up it makes a little dragon face with the thumbs as a jaw. I hear it's not healthy to talk to your fingers though.

Anyone remember that show "The Master" around 84 I believe?
Wasn't on for very long but I remember watching it after it was off the air about a year later.

I used to watch "The Master". Sho Kosugi played the villain on that show. I own both "Revenge of the Ninja" and "NInja 3: The Domination" and I still enjoy them although I wish I had "Ninja 3" on DVD. I thought (edited for spoilers)'s evil chrome ninja mask (in 'Revenge') was awesome. Those movies made me want to be a ninja and I studied stealth for awhile. I can still walk silently without any effort and I often sneak up on my wife and scare her big time although I never kill her like a ninja would. I don't use my awesome ninja skills for evil.

:grin:
