The Blazing Ninja

About This Movie

The Blazing Ninja is one of those oddities that straddles the line between various genres. You can see elements of action and drama blended with an adventurous spirit throughout. The film paints a gritty picture of rebellion against Japanese troops rampaging through China, which gives it a certain weight. The pacing is a bit uneven, typical of the era, but the practical effects have a raw charm that really pulls you in. The performances range from earnest to delightfully over-the-top, especially considering the added scenes from other films like Dragon On Fire. It feels like a patchwork, but there’s a certain energy that makes it distinctive. It’s certainly not your standard fare, but it has a unique vibe that’ll resonate with collectors looking for something off the beaten path.

Re-edited from the 1977 Korean film '사생문'. · Incorporates scenes from 'Dragon On Fire' and 'The Magnificent'. · A fascinating blend of cultural influences and filmmaking styles.
