Enter the Ninja 1981 R, 94 min. Genre: Action
Director: Menahem Golan Cast: Franco Nero, Susan George, Sho Kosugi, Alex Courtney, Will Hare, Zachi Noy, Dale Ishimoto, Christopher George
In this, the first of a series of three films, Franco Nero and his rival Sho Kosugi go at it, with Christopher George thrown in to make it more fun. These films are pretty weak entries, especially compared to Bruce Lee flicks. "Revenge of the Ninja" and "Ninja III–The Domination" follow.
