          Awful

          This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It is a Hong Kong This is a Hong Kong movie flick mixed with some American film. I have seen Imperial Films "Zombie versus Ninja" which was so bad it was laughable. Except for the American footage this movie was more gut wrenching painful then laughable.

          The plot was about rival gangs killing each other in 1980's Hong Kong, however this movie had ninjas!? The movie had spontaneous seen changes and spontaneously appearing and disappearing objects/ninjas.

          This movie is almost as bad as Manos the Hands of Fate.

          Note: This movie should be rated R for violence, sexuality (no nudity) and language.

          More IFD ninja goodness!

          Released here in the UK under the alternative title of, Ninja Operation 5: Godfather the Master, this is yet another utterly baffling but hilarious cut & paste effort brought to us by our good old friend Joseph Lai.

          Well, if you're reading this review, chances are that you've come across these glorious cut & paste ninja flicks before so rather than give yet another history lesson of the brazen scam that IFD and Filmark productions were running in the 1980's I'll instead offer you a glimpse of some of the highlights in the film in question.....

          Herein you'll find a plethora of God awful dubbing and inappropriate voice over work, some fabulously attired ninja, a soundtrack stolen from pop group Ah Ha(!), a vengeful mob boss's son called Raymond who spends the entire film laughing like an imbecile, a brief scene featuring a man with possibly the worst mullet ever(!!!), a truly demented fight near the beginning in which the combatants miraculously switch from fighting in an office, to suddenly appearing, fighting atop a rooftop and finally suddenly appearing (and still fighting) in a public park somewhere(WTF?!!!) and best of all, the hilariously abrupt ending in this in which Richard Harrison's character get's a rather unpleasant surprise in the final shot....classic!!!

          Ah, why don't they make films like this anymore?
