Ninja III: The Domination (1984) ***1/2

Ninja III: The Domination (1984) is the kind of cult film that is a **** on an enjoyment level and about a *** on a film level, so you kind of have to settle on the middle ranking. I love it, but it's ludicrous. I love it because it's ludicrous. It has ninja, a glowing, floating sword, a love scene involving V8, aerobics, a demonic possession scene featuring James Hong, an arcade game that shoots rainbow lights, and a fantastic soundtrack/synthesized score. Producers Golan and Globus, director Firstenberg, and writer Silke pull no punches (while the characters deliver all the punches) and go all out and all in. Extremely rewatchable.

For fans of Miami Connection (1987), Enter The Ninja (1981) and Big Trouble In Little China (1986).
