Anywho, this movie sounds badass. I can't wait to watch it. Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: AD on November 25, 2006, 04:09:49 PM At last you reviewed it...THREE YEARS I'VE BEEN WAITING I TELL YA, THREE YEARS...WOOHOO, now I can graduate with a smile on my face..
Three cheers to badmovies.org.... Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Randy on November 25, 2006, 04:10:12 PM I actually saw this movie IN A THEATER when it first came out. Even then, I knew it was the worst movie ever made. Early 80's TV shows had better acting and production values. I didn't see it again for 20 years until a friend gave me a tattered copy. The midget fight scene is an all time great. To this day, when someone complains about how bad a movie is I just ask, "But have you seen 9 Deaths of the Ninja?" A true classic.
Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Paul Haney on November 25, 2006, 04:09:49 PM Yes, congrats on finally reviewing this terrific movie. I have seconded at least two calls for this movie to be on this site. It's an absolute must see for those who need some of their brain cell confused into a drunken state of near death. Plus Nine Deaths of the Ninja has a special spot in history for me. This movie started me down the bad movie backsteet to hell. I bought this film randomly 8 years ago for $3 at a Wallgreen's. This movie was so intertainingly bad that I have now watched over 250 B-movies looking for other cases of pure genius. Today it is still in my top 10. (note: no matter how enjoyable this film may be don't try to watch it more than once a year. It's just far to damaging to your common sense.)
Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: AzumaNinja on November 25, 2006, 04:09:49 PM As a ninja enthusiast, I would like say that this movie is a must see! Who can't love Sho Kosugi when he stares down at the midget attackers in complete disbelief?? This movie is hilarious, and any fan of ninja or bad movies should go out and rent/buy it.
Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Steven Millan on November 25, 2006, 04:10:12 PM Sho Kosugi;where are you!?We surely could use you back in
the States to make some great martial arts classics once again,ala "Revenge of the Ninja" and "Pray For Death".Those movies were sheer 80s masterpieces,mixing gory violence with kickass fight sequences,and never was a movie of his really bad(including the extremely silly "Ninja III:The Domination" [love that massive death toll beginning!]and "Journey Of Honor"[sadly,his last film]).Love this massively goofy,but thoroughly entertaining effort just as much,too.A delightfully enjoyable flick for one of those beer-filled Saturday nights.

Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Victor on November 25, 2006, 04:10:12 PM This is THE worst film of all time! I mean this in a good way.
PS : The fight with the midgets was stolen from an episode of "The Incredible Hulk", in a scene where Lou Ferrigno had to fight a horde of the little guys for no apparent reason. Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Teemu on November 25, 2006, 04:10:12 PM This movie was horrible. When i first started watching it,and saw the opening credits i was like "what hell???". This movie really made me angry, i mean, why are people allowed to make so bad movies?
Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: moviecollector on November 25, 2006, 04:09:49 PM oh my goodness, I remember this movie.
My dad still has this on Beta. I used to watch it quite a bit when I was growing up. Its not the worst action movie I've seen. But it is bottom-of-the-barrel. :) Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: ZZT-X on November 25, 2006, 04:10:12 PM Bought this film used at a Gamestop, it being my second Sho Kosugi film (also Revenge of the Ninja).
Like everyone else, I thought "What the hell??" when the opening credits started. I thought "What the hell??" again when Alby pronounces 'unharmed', 'unharm-ed'. Again when the midget death squad came out. Again when I realized all the seven foot Arab would say was "Ha ha!". Again when the ninjas came outta NOWHERE in the caves. Again when I realized how much "Macho Man" was a total jackass. And again when Alby's dummy clone was trampled to death. Wow. Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Agentsoren on October 15, 2005, 03:02:59 PM This is truly one of the funniest B movies I have seen. I believe all the actors knew there was something special about this film so they really went all out with their characters. Even all of the supporting roles are amazing. Like Paul Haney (above), this was the chance movie that got me hooked on badness. It is the standard which all other movies are measured against. And I have to agree that once a year is the perfect watching interval. Please watch this movie.
Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: ninjafetus on November 25, 2006, 04:10:12 PM One thing you missed, right after spike shinobi blew up a part of the base... While the girl and the american good guy are driving towards the mountian in the jeep, they stop and the girl looks through some binoculars at the mountian and then radios Sipke saying something along the lines of "I can't see your position, are you okay?"
... of course she couldn't see his position. She was looking through the binoculars BACKWARDS. AS in, looking INTO the big lenses and pointing the SMALL lenses at the mountian. It's pretty fast, but really obvious if you look again. How stupid does this woman have to be to not know which way to look through them? Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Ninja Master Paddy on March 13, 2006, 04:41:05 PM Only noticed this fantastic review after seeing the film roughly a week ago.It truly is one of the greatest ninja B Movies of all time (though a personal favourite of mine Ninja terminator stills holds the title)
Title: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Kung Fu Karl on October 10, 2006, 01:44:09 AM Wow looks pretty lame. I think he was trying really hard not to cut one of those dancers who was dancing all around him.
Title: Re: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: Kolt on February 27, 2008, 05:39:31 AM Watching this movie is like having sex with an attractive double amputee: Humorous, degrading, strangely gratifying and best done while inebriated.
Sho Kosugi does kata through pink mist, plays air guitar with a tennis racket, cuts water melons in half, fights midgets and goes old man-incognito etc etc.. There's a scene where Rahji uses the power of bad editing to block a bullet - and then laughs about it. There is also a scene where Brent Huff, AKA Steve Gordon, AKA Macho Man, dispenses mass destruction with a multi-round grenade launcher simply known as "The Dancer". And amongst such other crazy s**t, there is a scene where one ninja uses a cardboard cut-out of another ninja (or possibly himself) as an illusionary-defense against oncoming throwing stars. This suggest that there is perhaps a factory of some kind or an 'Office Max' that is exclusive only to ninjas where a ninja can take a photo copy of himself and have it blown up and processed into a full size cardboard image. I am fairly certain that this film is viewed daily as training video for various special Ops of the United States Armed forces. P.S. - Soren sucks balls. Title: Re: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: talthar on April 25, 2008, 03:37:45 PM Dworkin? The Pattern?
So this is what they show at the theatres in Amber? Makes me wonder what the hell is playing in the Courts of Chaos... Title: Re: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: chris on December 26, 2008, 10:00:13 AM How could they afford to shoot this in 2.35:1 widescreen with how low budget the movie was?
Title: Re: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: annoymous on August 04, 2009, 05:43:47 PM Just found out that the guy who played Alby Blackie Dammitt was also in Lethal Weapon as a drug dealer in the opening who gets nailed by Mel Gibson.
Title: Re: 9 Deaths of the Ninja Post by: JPickettIII on November 17, 2009, 10:46:43 PM I just watched the credits. I have not seen the move yet, but I am going to now. I love the eighties ninja movies. My favorite is American Ninja. The fighting was to funny. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :bouncegiggle:
