Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Red-Barracuda Ninja Death is the first in a series of three films that seem to have been made at the same time. It begins as it means to go on with a truly crazed fight between three good guys defending a baby and a princess against a gang of ninja assassins and their evil overlord. It's a demented affair with an eye gouging, a suicide and men being kicked several metres along the ground. It gives a pretty good indication of the film we are about to see, as Ninja Death is quite clearly a very committedly ridiculous film, with characters such as a man in a gold all-in-one suit armed with a couple of hammers and another sporting a demon mask who pirouettes through the air. It's chock full of entertaining fights that are sometimes camped up to the max. Events seem to revolve around a bouncer at a brothel who is at one point attacked by a man disguised as a female prostitute.Essentially, this is a markedly better than average slice of chopsocky action. Its entertainment level is much better because it is more fearlessly ridiculous than most others and doesn't get bogged down with tedium like most in the genre do at some stage. Fast, frenetic and daft as a brush – that's this film.
John MacKenzie (GPLXTech) Having watched this movie, and it's second part, I am surprised that so many people have seen it. A friend of mine received it as a birthday gift and held onto it for a few years before finding people like myself to watch it with him. This movie is really something to be enjoyed (or detested) with friends who enjoy bad, bad, bad movies. being a fan of Mystery Science Theatre I have grown to love bad movies. This movie is right up there with the worst of the worst movies. But because of that fact it is watchable. In the second movie, I love the scene where Tiger is sitting by a waterfall and 5 (or so) ninjas jump out and surround him. If you watch the lower left hand corner of the ninja who jumps onto the rock, you can actually see him slip, fall on his butt, but keep his sword up as if nothing happened. There are so many pointless scenes that it's hard to recall all of them.
rottingcarrot I've seen parts II and III of the ninja death series and as far as I can tell I haven't missed anything essential from the plot. The plot has something to do with a guy named tiger played by the always exciting Alexander lou who is fighting ninjas. I'm not sure why he's fighting them but there are three guys from a different time period who were taught ninja arts in japan since they were kids and then they fight. One gets his eyes gouged out. Another teaches tiger kung fu and then he punches himself in the head and he dies. This was a very dramatic scene which had me in tears.But I was soon cheered up by some of the best ninja fight scenes i've ever witnessed! The fight choreography in this film is absolutely top notch, fast and accurate fighting! THe head evil ninja with the twin hammers wearing the gold suit should win every award at the academy awards. His kung fu is fabulous and His acting (along with the poorest quality English dubbing i've ever heard) is hilarious! In fact everyones acting in this is hilarious. Alexander lou shows just how bad an actor he can be in nonsensical love scenes that make them very funny to watch! If you like crazy Chinese kung fu movies you'll love this, if not, the fight scenes are still worth the admission.
primesuspect-1 This was the best entertainment value I have ever experienced. I paid .99 for this movie - it was in a bin in a computer store of all places. I have paid a dollar for things that have paled in comparison to the laughter, loud exclamations, and pure joy that this movie brought to myself and a group of friends that gathered 'round to watch it with me.If you ever find this movie - don't rent it.. Buy it.I can't really figure out if the movie was intentionally poorly edited, and I'm almost positive the lead character's voice actor changed from an American to a Brit midway through the movie.... However, you can't help but wonder at the insanely long "sex" scenes and I felt more as if I were watching a direct pipeline into the director's boyhood sexual fantasies rather than watching a kung-fu flick.The fighting actually is pretty good. Most kung-fu movies can be divided into "intro", "training sequence" and "boss fight / revenge battle", but this one breaks the mold. It's more like "intro/training sequence", "long training sequence", "pointless sex scenes" and then NOTHING. There is no proper end to this movie. There is no boss fight. It's really, really weird.I loved it.
