    Finally, a film for orpans, by orpans.

    This is one of those movies that read like a 10 yr old wrote the script: "There are these ninjas, and they're bad guys. They're so bad they ride bikes. And then there's the good guys. They do martial arts, and they are friends and go to school together. And they have a band and play the guitar! But then the bad guys don't like them and don't like their music and don't like it that they're so much better at martial arts than the bad guys are. So then they fight, and they use swords, and one of the good guys almost gets killed! But the good guys win, they kill everyone and they all return to school the next day. The end."

      @@StanSwan No wait, Jim said his MOTHER was Korean, not his dad. Not that it really matters, this movie still blows. It tries to mix an 80's teen romance drama, with guys that play in a crappy band, and don't wear shirts, and adding in ninjas and drugs, and then, tries to combine them, only fail massively, and make one of the most confusingly stupid movies ever made, but at least RiffTrax make it watchable.

    You can say whatever you want about this film, but grandmaster YK Kim really pulled it together and made some pretty cool fight scenes here. The fight choreography is really good and the storyline is cool too. His Hang-Up was that he had no filmmaking experience. Nevertheless it's lit well, beautifully shot, and should have actually received more Acclaim. in the '80s martial arts / ninja films where rather ubiquitous in the US for a Time.
