Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis was the first film of a five picture deal for Lucinda Dickey who Menahem Golan wanted to make her a star very badly. The other films in the deal included Breakin' (1984), Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo (1984), Breakin' 3, which was planned but fell apart, King Solomon's Mines and its sequel, Allan Quartermain And The Lost City of Gold. The latter three films didn't happen for her because she felt that both she and Cannon Films were totally tired of each other at that point.
- GoofsAfter the evil ninja comes out of the lake he is soaked from head to toe. In the next shot, he continues to fight police officers and is bone dry.
- Alternate versionsThe film was cut by 1 min 12 secs for its UK cinema release to remove all footage of metal throwing stars. All cuts were waived for the 2015 video release.

Featured review
A highly unusual formula ("The Exorcist" meets "Enter the Dragon") is injected into routine martial arts film. Martial arts action (and there's plenty of it) and second rate special effects compensate for lousy acting. An innocent woman (Lucinda Dickey) is possessed by the spirit of an evil ninja assassin (David Chung), causing her to murder the police responsible for his "death." It's Sho Kosugi ("Enter the Ninja," "Revenge of the Ninja") to the rescue as he tries to rid the spirit and destroy the ninja once and for all ("Only a ninja can destroy a ninja"). Best in the series, but only one complaint: Kosugi has very little screen time. My evaluation: **1/2 out of ****.
