Love this movie. Love Sho Kosugi. He was trained by a wandering ninja who one day just never returned. That right there is a true ninja tale in real life
@@jovanstar , no, bad choreography. Watch one more time, it staged so bad. Average person will kill you with a sword or catana. All this bullshido saltos are so lame. It was cool when I was 13 yo.
I think what made this ninja movie so epic is the number of never before seen weapons that were introduced throughout the film. It was like the ultimate introduction to ninjutsu. Other ninja movies mainly focused on swordplay and show one or two unusual types of weapons. Mostly shuriken, blinding powders, sai, or kusarigama. But this had so much firsts appearances. 1. The the marbles with the tetsubishi. 2. Koppojustu (bone breaking techniques ) 3. The sword with the hidden knife in the handle. 4. The blowgun with poison darts 5. Rope ladders 6. The spikes that he spits from his mouth. 7. The mini flamethrower 8. Even the hidden compartment th silver masked ninja used to hold his lock picks It’s always been rare to see so many ninjutsu techniques in one film and that’s why this is one of the best ninja movies ever.
I loved this movie as a kid growing up in the 80s. Sho Kosugi's ninja martial arts was so amazing, really helping to make the "Ninja" ultra cool in the US.
As a kid, this movie and all Kosugi movies were amazing. I thought of him as this mythological Ninjutsu practitioner. Reality hit as adult as I grew up as Kosugi fans. He never practiced Ninjutsu nor was he trained in it. He was a Shotokan Karate blackbelt from Japan who was hired to mimic as a Ninja. His stunt double Steven Lambert has written an amazing book who doubled for Kosugi in dangerous stunts as well as all of the gymnastics and acrobatics that Kosugi did not know how to perform
This was the epitome of ninja flicks back in the day. The scene where the grandma gets busy with the Silver ninja was awesome too. Sho's movie "Pray for Death" was also pretty freakin awesome!
When I first saw this on youtube I was in absolute shock HOW TF DID I MISS OUT ON THIS? THIS SHOULD BE IN THE COLLECTION since I grew up with late night/mid Saturday hong-kong/ martial arts movies all my life. 😎
DAMN! WHAT A BADASS MOVIE THIS WAS BACK IN 1983. I REALIZED THAT BEFOR SHO KOSUGI BECAME A NINJA, HE WAS TRAINED BY ONE OF THE BEST MARTIAL ART EXPERTS IN HIS NATIVE COUNTRY. I ONCE HAD VHS SEEING THIS CLASSIC FILM, IT NEVER GETS OLD.
It's a classic movie for sure. Sho Kosugi did a lot of good "fight movies" work and could be a surprisingly decent actor as well. Now go check out Ninja Mission. Me and my brother have trained with some of the actors playing ninja, because they were instructors at the Stockholm dojo at the time. Completely different style of film, and yet the same kind of vibes.
you must've been rich being able to afford one, I had a Laser Disc player. charged my friends admission to watch star wars on it lolz they thought i was from the future
@@uniqfox Rich? The movie was released in 1983. Which was roughly when we got a VCR as well, and we were certainly not rich. Just a bit early adopters. Ironically, of all the VHS players we've had through the years, the only one still working, is the original bought back in sometime 1982-1984, i can't recall exact year.
All I wanted when the talk of the live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie was going to happen, was to see Sho Kosugu as the Shredder. The reason besides the fact that his success as a ninja star in these films made the genre popular, was the fact that everytime I re-read the first run of books, I heard Kosugi's voice in my head everytime the Shredder spoke. It should have been him, and I felt completely justified in this sentiment when I went to see Ninja Assassin in theaters. He ESSENTIALLY WAS the Shredder in that movie.
I remember when my buddy was trying so hard to get me into Sho Kosugi. As he hands me his dvds "Dude hes the real deal. The last real Ninja to ever exist. Hes an actual Ninja, supposedly people were out to kill him too"
😂 Are you stupid ? Do you really know what was a ninj… Sorry the real name was shinobi and not Ninja… They were spy and wear blac… Oops navy blue suit only for night operation ! 😮
I believe that is probably not accurate. Some sites claim it but don't provide any sources. Most verified information points to him being a Karate champion and also practicing other martial arts like Kendo. In the interviews with him he doesn't mention formal Ninjutsu training, instead after he moved to Los Angeles at aged 19 to go to college, he eventually found work doing stunts in a Ninja movie and the rest is history. He never had a formal background in Ninjutsu.
Revenge of the Ninja, is a great film, I own it on DVD. Other good movies were Pray for Death, Black Eagle with JCVD, Ninja Assassin. I've not seen all of his movies. It's great that Kane or both of his kids are in his movies.
Brilliant😅👍🏻💯 sho was the reason I took up shotokan karate when my family moved to the states when we were kids..my (siblings and I) Return of the Ninja and pray for death are my favourite films by sho.
As someone who have studied fencing and love a good sword fighting in movies, i can say this one is one the best coregrapgy in western history for sure. Most of sword coreographis fell into a luttle mistake we call "signalizing". Means that you quickly shows to the other stunt/actor the next movie like a parrying etc. This one is so good you see no signalizing, also the speed is amazing and it really looks like a sword fight with ninjato.
Fun Fact: this movie, Enter The Ninja and Ninja III the domination we’re originally supposed to connect, but producers decided to market the films separately but still kept the name Ninja III .. isn’t weird that Ninja I and Ninja II don’t exist……
If I'm not mistaken, I think that this film (Revenge of the Ninja) is officially the 2nd installment in the film series. "Ninja III: The Domination" is obviously part 3. I think the 1st film in the 3 part series is called "9 Deaths of the Ninja"......but my ALL TIME personal Sho Kosugi favorite is a movie called "Pray for Death" .....he showcased both of his sons in that film alongside with him, Shane & Kane Kosugi
Ninjas appeared in a Sean Connery James Bond movie and the Kung Fu Tv series with David Carradine, but Sho Kosugi and this movie made every their popularity EXPLODE!
He actually wrote the first drafts of that film but then the studio got involved and made a bunch of changes and Hollywood it up. I bet his pure vision for the return of the ninja to current cinema would've been epic and even better
Сколько из-за этого фильмы было унитожено "раскладушек", трубки от которых шли на мечи, сколько "суриков" было взорвано под ногами, и сколько "звездочек-ниньдзя" было выточенно на уроках труда....😂
Fue una de las mejores películas que vi en viocaset cuando mi tío tenía video casetera me gustó mucho esa película la revancha del ninja la vi varias veces tenía también el disco pero se me perdió buen recuerdo me gustaría volverla a ver otra vez
i used to love sho kosugi movies when i was young. i watch this stuff now and wonder why he didnt go down to the local gun shop and get a 12 gauge and be done woth it. all that flipping makes my knees hurt just watching it now. indiana jones knew how bring things into the 20th century
my favorite ninja movie of all time will be the movie ninja warriors. for anyone that hasnt seen or heard of it. i recommend searching it up on youtube or online. it starts with an ninja playing a flute.. that is the actually opening then you see a bunch ninjas doing an obstical course and burying themselves under sand after that it goes fully into the proper start of the movie. fantastic ninja movie
It's almost 2025.... Who still likes these martial arts movies???❤
I do!!!
These are some classics.. You will find plenty of people still do.
I do
Me encanta no me canso
I really do like them
Fell in love with ninja films because of this guy. 😂😂😂
Couldn’t get enough of these movies back in the day! 👍
Love this movie. Love Sho Kosugi. He was trained by a wandering ninja who one day just never returned. That right there is a true ninja tale in real life
Surely he completed the job cause sho remains the best
I was trained by a wandering ninja who one day just never ARRIVED.
@@jonathanmora8208 😂
If I ever learned Ninjutsu from a wondering ninja that never returned I would use what I learned to become a crime fighter.
It would be used for good.
@@SmokeyMcbI would kill for money and power as a mercenary
this is one of my favorite ninja movies of all times. when i was a kid, i watched it religiously!
You could probably learn everything about being a ninja from this scene alone.
Same and then I found out I lived down the street from sho's Ninja shop,I seen sho and kane there's great memories of living in Los Angeles 🖤🥷

Right around the 2:00 mark i laughed because of that quick back flip chase, These are classic legendary movies! You can't go wrong with these.

Watching this brought me back to when I was a kid reading Ninja Magazine. Sho Kosugi was the man along side Harunaka Hatsumi.
Love Sho Kosugi is the real deal! Loved all his movies growing up! Still do!
This was the epitome of ninja flicks back in the day. The scene where the grandma gets busy with the Silver ninja was awesome too. Sho's movie "Pray for Death" was also pretty freakin awesome!

👊🏽
sho was the best in the ninja movies....he was great in blind fury......
He played the villain in that movie but u prefer him as the hero and good guy 😅
WHATABOUT THE WONDER NINJA?
I remember when my buddy was trying so hard to get me into Sho Kosugi. As he hands me his dvds "Dude hes the real deal. The last real Ninja to ever exist. Hes an actual Ninja, supposedly people were out to kill him too"
Thank you so much💕
I loved these movies when i was a kid and they were all the rage back then.At least from a kid's point of view.
Fun fact: Sho is actually a real Ninja studied Ninjutsu and is ranked ninja in Japan…
😂 Are you stupid ? Do you really know what was a ninj… Sorry the real name was shinobi and not Ninja… They were spy and wear blac… Oops navy blue suit only for night operation ! 😮

@@juandenz2008 who knows for all we know everything on the internet is true or false..
Sho Kosugi is the true ultimate ninja ! love this movie
Watched this movie so...many times as a kid! Great movie!!!
Such an epic battle. It did seem to me that the Silver Ninja, was out-ninja-ing Sho until he persevered and eventually won.
The silver ninja was mean and tricky the whole time, but that doesn't make him better. He was simply winning time until the final showdown.
This was like my childhood ❤ reruns 😊😊😊
Woww...bring back the memories when I was young. One of best ninja movie ❤️❤️🔥🔥👍👍👍
Sho Kosugi was the truth. Ninja movie's became a lot popular when he hit the scene.
Yep💯Loved him in Ninja 3 Domination!
I really am a Ninja
@quekelley5277
He's the inspiration for the Title Screen of Sega's "Shinobi" too! 😁
He had all us neighborhood kids “ninja-ing” on summer nights…..
Fun fact: The rooftop fight scene was filmed at 44 W Broadway, Salt Lake City, UT 84101.
Sho Kosugi the only,the best,the first ninja action actor on screen.The ninja of our childhood
Revenge of the Ninja, is a great film, I own it on DVD. Other good movies were Pray for Death, Black Eagle with JCVD, Ninja Assassin. I've not seen all of his movies. It's great that Kane or both of his kids are in his movies.

Brings back memories. I always like Sho Kosugi but man these movies aged like milk.
The best part of this movie is when he is yelling in the walkie talkie saying 2215 this is 2215 the way he says it kills me everytime 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This fight scene is a staple of my childhood. I loved this movie and this scene was the best.
Still remember it being 1983 and after watching this thinking I was going to learn to be a ninja!!!
Y que tal te fue?
As a kid i loved this movie. I had to be a ninja for every Halloween.
I like watching thoes movies

Two ninjas fighting in broad daylight on top of a building in the middle of a big ass city. Totally believeable.

Back flip is one of the only ways to get out of a smoke bomb
The way Sho actually has to look into the empty saya @2:43 always cracks me up. Like, he was genuinely confused by it.

Haven't seen Revenge of the Ninja in decades.
Kino lorber released it on blue ray with new interviews with the director but I wish it had new interviews with the actors missed opportunity
bloody hell, I was 11 years old when I first saw that scene.
I didn't know ninja fights were common in Salt Lake City. 😂
More than you think... 😂
Nice video I like it ,thank u ,
I enjoyed this in the 80s. Some things could have been done much better to make it more realistic, but it was great for the time period.
Glad he made comeback as Master Ninja in " Ninja Assassin," movie ..even though bad guy this time.
After all this time, you are still…Ozunu!
He actually wrote the first drafts of that film but then the studio got involved and made a bunch of changes and Hollywood it up.
I bet his pure vision for the return of the ninja to current cinema would've been epic and even better
