There out there!
Movies that just far surpass anything else! This was the movie. Released in the late 80's
Sho Kosugi
was at his Ninja peak. He made more Ninja movies than anyone else. And was paid the best, out of all the Ninja actors. HE could do it all, had serious street cred, and loved his job so much, he brought his son into the business. Sho's movies had a serious element to them, and took a lot of the chop sockey showmanship out of the genre. In
Ninja 3
he used every available tool, to create an air of seriousness with the character. For instance, 1.swords vs guns (you had to include the most current weapons, against traditional weapons and show that tradition Ninja weapons could compete. 2. Helicopters-he added scenes with stunts going to and from helicopters. 3.Used traditional weapons in scenes to give it more traditional value. Every weapon was given a scene, the Ninja toe, blowgun, throwing stars, grappling hook, the kasa gatari. The only drawback was the demon possession scenes. It was hard for the main actress to pull that off. And show did more stunt coordination, and more work behind the scenes than on. He also double a few times for the grey Ninja at the beginning of the movie. Over all this is one of the best Ninja movies of all time, so go check it out. Ninja 3: the Domination.
