Pre-viewed for quality and had to tweak the tracking up for a light static sound on my Emerson deck. Otherwise it played great. Box is slightly faded and has a small title sticker on the left lower spine.

Cassette is nice and clean and has a store branded security sticker on the spine assuring you of first generation quality. Out Of Print (OOP) in all formats except pricey blu-ray.

Full screen is perfect for old school tube TVs as the image will fill your square frame. Everybody will like the pop-n-go retro video with no fussy menus.

This sequel in-name-only is a surprisingly brisk blend of swordplay and possession. An appalling bloodbath of policemen on a golf course sets into dubious motion this sword fighting, body-slamming and car crashing actioner. A samurai warrior, practically impervious to bullets, kills scores of bluecoats before becoming mortally wounded himself.

The Black Ninja crawls away to die but passes on his spirit and haunted sword to attractive telephone-line repairwoman Christie (Lucinda Dickey) who was working nearby. Under the influence of the supernatural, she becomes an agile avenger and kills the few survivors of the PD squad who killed the ninja.

At home, weird colored smoke coupled with laser beams coming out of a video game seem to hypnotize her. Her boyfriend takes notice of her blackouts and sudden interest in Japanese cultures. Not knowing what to do they seek help from Miyashima (James Hong) who wants to perform an exorcism.

After a rope-swinging colored-light spectacle and more smoke exorcism (which is actually kind of scary and cool) the exorcist confesses he cannot force the spirit out of Christie but that "only a ninja can destroy a ninja". Christie and her boyfriend are forced to enlist the aid of Yamada (Sho Kosugi) whose one eye is covered by a black patch.

The three force the ninja out in a dangerous gamble that results in the spirit repossessing his own dead body as a zombie ninja! who takes on his ex-comrade.

The film borrows from the Western tradition of post-'Exorcist' possession and the richly fantastical vein of Japanese & Chinese magical martial arts.
