Ninja Wars

[Steve Baynes]

I am proud to say that I saw this IN THE THEATRE.  I was stationed at Keesler AFB in Missippi in '83 where they used to show us any kind of ninja movie they could smuggle in from the Orient.  Back then, these were some of the best special effects I had ever seen.  I am still puzzled and amazed by the  powers of these warriors.  One of my favorites is when the little girl runs through a bamboo forest waving her hand about her head, then stops and turns around to see all the trees collapse in a giant cascade.  Very sweet.  Your jaw will drop, I promise.  I've seen a lot of ninja movies and this remains my favorite yet.

Nice board!

The dubbed version of this movie was funny kashin koji sounded like ross perot
lord danjo sounded like a football player at some points going "what is it!" and "your name!". Jotaro sounded too happy to be angry. Ukyo and karagarbi sounded like idiots. The monks sounded very bad. I recommend buying the subtitled version of this its a little longer than the dubbed version about 5 mins longer and has the real voices and is more dramatic and looks better than it is now its also in widescreen.

The original japanese version had a longer opening scene continuing after the shooting of the two guys on horse. A Narrator then begins commenting on how humans constantly kill each other and then introduces the character of Kashin Koji saying that he was a wizard and also that his origins are unknown but many books where written about him. This then leads to the start of the central story and was basically cut out of the american version which renders the opening scene senseless.
