Today’s Deal on Fire is for the 4K Ultra HD collection for Kino Lorber’s Ninja Trilogy, consisting of Menahem Golan’s Enter the Ninja (1981), Sam Firstenberg’s Revenge of the Ninja (1983), and Ninja III: The Domination (1984)
Though not connected in story, these three films popularized the image of the ninja in Western pop culture (known as the 80s “ninja boom” or “ninja craze”) with their mix of diverse weaponry, outrageous plots, and over-the-top martial arts action.
Led by stars like Franco Nero (Street Law), Sho Kosugi (9 Deaths of the Ninja), and Lucinda Dickey (Breakin’), the trilogy showcased Cannon’s trademark blend of exploitation flair and energetic low-budget filmmaking that would eventually lead them into their highly successful American Ninja franchise.
Collectively, the Ninja Trilogy also feature stars such as Susan George (Straw Dogs), Keith Vitali (Wheels on Meals), Kane Kosugi (Coweb), Shane Kosugi (Prisoners of War), David Chung (Missing in Action 2: The Beginning) and James Hong (Big Trouble in Little China).
