Revenge of the Ninja (1983), starring Shô Kosugi, Keith Vitali, Virgil Frye, Kane Kosugi, and Professor Toru Tanaka. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market in May.
Synopsis: The Ninja are back! Brandishing swords and fists, leaping and kicking, wielding blow darts and explosives, they know a thousand ways to kill. Martial arts legend Sho Kosugi delivers a heart-pounding display of strength, speed and lethal Ninja know-how in this action-packed thriller that "takes us back to the good old days of the kung fu extravaganza" (Screen International).
When a band of Ninja assassins slaughters the family of Cho Osaki (Kosugi), he flees to America in the hope of building a new life. A former Ninja himself, Osaki tries to escape his deadly past but soon discovers he has become the pawn of a ruthless drug trafficker - an American Ninja intent on killing anyone who crosses his path... including Osaki!
