10 Outrageous Films That Must Be Seen To Be Believed
3. Ninja III: The Domination
If you’re going to make a modern day ninja movie set in California, this is the way to do it – by throwing logic out the window and tossing in a demonic possession angle.
Real-life dancer Lucinda Dickey plays a telephone linewoman (and aerobics instructor) who becomes possessed by the spirit of a bad ninja, causing her to take revenge on the cops who gunned him down. Because only a ninja can destroy a ninja, his soul needs to be transferred back into his dead body so that he can fight good ninja Sho Kosugi during the climax.
From the bad music to the fashions, hairstyles and unintentionally hilarious scenes where a demonic presence is suggested by dry ice pouring out of a closet, Ninja III is an 80s movie to the core. Sure, there are other ninja movies out there, but they don’t answer such important questions as: Can you drive away an evil spirit by playing 80s music? Do cops take shotguns to funerals? Most importantly, if you’ve been possessed by a ninja, can you kill a bunch of guys without messing up your hair?
