10 Most Hilariously Terrible Yet Weirdly Awesome Movie Fight Scenes

3. Ninja: Silent Assassin (1987)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=U6hlXo8-7wo Ninja: Silent Assassin is a film that defies categorisation; there really is no film quite like it. First of all, in the tradition of martial arts films having inane, idiosyncratic plots, the narrative largely revolves around a cartel smuggling watermelons - yes, watermelons - and if that's not enough, the ridiculous fast-zooms and synth score only add to the absurdity. Particularly tickling is the zoom into two ninjas twirling their hands about, and when we pull out, they're decked out in full-on ninja - or, erm, Power Ranger - uniform, ready to kick some ass. The inane editing renders a sword-fight virtually incomprehensible, but at least when one of the black-clad ninjas dies, we get a nicely distended, exaggerated death scene to marvel at, followed by what can only be described as watermelon overkill, as the surviving ninjas smash a few up, and then...set them on fire...
