You shut your whore mouth, those chopsocky films are a treasure! The difference in quality and how the stories barely go together are some of the appeal of those movies. It's really cool how far some creators go to make their movie and have everything sorta be a somewhat cohesive narrative.
Shit like Kung Pow are great examples of the genre being done very well (even as a parody).
I know what you mean, but I still can't tell the difference between The Ninja Force, Ninja The Protector, Full Metal Ninja, and Ninja Terminator.
Those movies were produced en masse with little to no regard to copyright, contracts with actors or global quality and that pretty much fits the definition of slop.
Aside from the so-bad-they're-good ninja scenes (always a pleasure to see a ninja turning into a wooden stick in a park), I just find those movies boring.
I think you're talking about those like bootleg ones that were hastily assembled pieces of shit from stolen Run Run Shaw films, etc
Right?
I was talking about movies made by Godfrey Ho in the 80s
Looks like we might be discussing the same movies. I checked out the link you included, and he did work at Shaw Studios and was apparently known to splice in footage not filmed by his crew. Nice
