What was this racist martial arts movie masquerading as Ninja Terminator?

Gunter?

Years ago I bought Ninja Terminator on VHS used, the movie in the box was a racist Chinese movie where the princess of China or something was passing through a village and a humble peasant fell in love with her so him and his wise old Uncle killed all the guards and they rowed a boat away.  There were some Koreans that looked like Arabs from Disney's Aladdin and a Japanese Karate Master who was a real jerk.

The thing is I have no clue what the movie is because the tape had a sticker saying Ninja Terminator on it.  Any help would be appreciated.

Do you still have the video tape? If you could get any english off of it, that might help track it down or at least eliminate possibilities.

Gunter?

No, I don't have the cassette anymore, the film was dubbed into English though.  I'd imagine it was originally in Chinese.

Puzzled

Can you tell us any more about any of the characters?

Did they use any particular weapons or odd fighting styles?

Any distinguishing physical features?

Memorable scenes?

Unfortunately, there is a movie called "Ninja Terminator" so any searches on that tend to bring up that, but I'm pretty sure it isn't related to your movie.

I know for a fact they are different movies, I think the company that put out the VHS made a mistake.
There was a Japanese Karate master that was extremely powerful.
There was a Korean that was huge and brawled a lot.
The main character and his Uncle seemed to use Tae Kwon Do, lots of kicks.
The main character befriended for street thugs who tried and failed to scare him.  They defeated the Korean.
I don't remember any character using weapons extensively, except the Korean.  He used a polearm until he was disarmed.
The final fight ended with the main villain and the hero's uncle beating each other to death with two quintuple flying side kicks.
It took place in the countryside, in a small village.

A real stab in the dark here.....
When Tae-Kwon Do Strikes (1973) with Sammo Hung. I haven't seen it, but came across a blurb about it on another website. Here is the IMDB page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070768/

Here is a review with some screencaps: http://www.dragonsdenuk.com/reviews/when_taekwondo_strikes.htm
