CHALLENGE OF THE LADY NINJA

Fans of mutant martial arts mania and cult movie discoveries rejoice: CHALLENGE OF THE LADY NINJA is another unearthed Taiwanese B-movie brainbomb to savor. This WWII-era espionage wuxia with an all-female squad of ass-kickers is filled to the brim with riotous touches…not only supernatural stuff like teleportation and shadow clones but also sleazy training montages, hypnotic seduction techniques, stolen music from both STAR WARS and “Frosty The Snowman”, anachronistic ‘70s Cadillac sedans and ‘80s hairdo blowouts, oil wrestling, fantastic outfits and much bloody bladework.
