The Ninja Master… is now the Ninja Avenger
Directed by Emmett Alston
Produced by Crown International Pictures
A high-octane 1980s action exploitation film built around ninja combat, hostage rescue, and drug-war heroics with minimal character depth.
A trio of specialized soldiers is called in to stop a group of drug traffickers who have hijacked a busload of tourists in the Philippines and threaten to kill them all if one of their companions is not released from jail and the government does not stop its anti-drug policies.
