Producer Tomas Tang applies his magic formula once again. For those of you that don't know, the Tang formula is:
Any Movie Whatsoever + NINJA = $$$ ...we means mediocre unreleased Thai and Hong Kong films re-dubbed and have ninja footage spliced into them almost at random.
Mayhem ensues.
This time the victim is an unremarkable Thai movie about a couple of thugs going up against a crime gang who ruthlessly rule a field somewhere with a fist of iron. Somehow ninjas are tied into this. And the Cold War - a rare theme in Tomas Tang's work, but a personal favourite.
And there's a CIA agent called "Robinson Collins". But no demon's massacre, sorry.

A typically baffling cut & paste opus here, brought to us by our old pal Thomas Tang under his Filmark International banner.
I'm not even going to attempt to describe the plot in this as it's so fragmented as to be absolutely incomprehensible (as is pretty much always the case in these glorious films), suffice to say that it comprises a plethora of fistfights, gun duels, knife throwing, double crossing, espionage and last but not least, ninja (edited into proceedings of course)!
Interestingly this film also boasts an erroneous cast list(!!!) In fact the original film into which the newer segments have been spiced stars Thai superstar (and regular face in these flicks) Sorapong Chatri. Best of all though, in the newer segments in the film, none other than everyone's favourite crap actor, Stuart Smith appears! (additionally boasting a really bad haircut!)
There's simply no point in applying a regular critique to the grandiose ineptitude as displayed here, simply sit back, turn off your cerebrum and enjoy the insane spectacle!
