A typically incompetent cut-and-paste ninja movie from Tomas Tang, one of the "unholy three" of '80s cut-and-paste ninja movies - the other offenders being Joseph Lai and Godfrey Ho. Here, the editing of not two but THREE (perhaps FOUR!) movies makes even less sense than usual, considering that the film opens with footage of ninjas watching a movie on television - then that movie suddenly becomes reality! Sounds fantastic when in reality it's just dumb. This time some Thai war/crime thriller film serves as the crux of the plot, on to which scenes of a bunch of ninjas (led by an unmissable guy in bright red clothes and a green headband) sitting around in a dark room and talking a bit.Although the film doesn't star Richard Harrison for once, the guy who dubs his voice is on hand to supply another official's voice which makes for some amusement. This time around the hero is Stuart Smith (baddie in NINJA HUNT), one of the most wooden and unappealing leads for some time - but then lithe and sweaty heroes were all the rage in the cheesy '80s. As the film progresses, there are some UNDER SIEGE-style antics aboard a ship at night in the edited-in Thai movie, which features a huge shoot-out and lots of confusing editing. Then follows a brief segment which appears to be some Thai Vietnam war movie and has nothing to do with the rest of the 'plot', ninja or otherwise! One action highlight involves Smith running into a soldier who magically transforms into a ninja and jumps on to the roof of his car in an attempt to kill him before falling off and sliding under the wheels of the vehicle moments later. Minutes later another ninja lurking in the bushes fires a flare arrow at Smith, exploding his car. An inexplicably half-naked Smith is then attacked by a gardener with a pair of shears in one of the film's numerous unintentionally funny bits (the ninja getting shot with a flare is another). The ninja battle in the woods which marks the film's close is classic stuff, with all kinds of impossible gymnastics, ninjas being strung up from trees and exploding, then the chief evil ninja getting his arm amputated - at which point the severed limb turns into a torpedo-style weapon! The incredibly strange ending, which involves a bunch of teleporting frogs, is weirdness par excellence and unforgettable stuff.

I usually get a big kick out the cut-and-paste ninja movies coming from director Godfrey Ho or whatever pseudonym he uses. However, I have to admit that I found "Ninja in the Killing Fields" (a.k.a. "Ninja Connection") to be a big bore. The main problem with the movie is that there is much less ninja nonsense displayed here compared to other Godfrey Ho movies. In fact, you have to wait until the very last scene of the movie to get ninja nonsense that's the least bit amusing (and energetically choreographed.) Most of the movie is footage from what appears to be a Thai movie, and while this footage occasionally shows some decent production values (the filmmakers obviously got the cooperation of the Thai armed forces), otherwise it is extremely boring, with far too much talk and little action. And when there is action, it is for the most part lamely directed. Whether you're in the mood for a straight action flick or an action flick that's so bad it's good, this movie doesn't satisfy either way.

Ninjas in their sanctuary watch as their plans are busted up by the cops. They then decided to take matters in their own hands by going after the cops...or something...Look its bad, I mean really bad. Two minutes in I knew this was yet another Godfrey Ho film, though he used one of his dozens of other names. You know Ho, he's the whacked guy who takes good martial arts/Asian movies then shoots wrap around footage that doesn't match, re-dubs and re-cuts it beyond all recognition and turns it loose on the unsuspecting world as a "new" film. He made a long line of ninja films with Richard Harrison that barely had Harrison in them. Ho's so good at this nonsense that he'll use the same movie with different wraparounds and call them different movies. He's a master of the junk film. I wouldn't care if they were put together with any sort of skill, but they're not, I mean its plain to see the old and new footage do not match in any way. Worse any thing good in the old footage is killed by the really bad new footage. Its so bad its bad and not even remotely fun.As with all Godfrey Ho films its to be avoided, or sent to your worst enemy in the world as an expression of your deep hatred.

I am a big fan of low budget kung-fu movies. This movie I bought at a Dollar store in a mall, along with 4 other low-budget action movies for only five dollars! I knew right away by reading the synopsis on the back that this movie was going to be great, but I didn't know just how great until I watched it.. I couldn't stop laughing! It has drug dealing ninjas! The head ninja is hilarious because he looks like he bought his costume from Kmart. It is a reddish polyester type ninja suit with a green headband, complete with a HORRIBLE shiny paper ninja star glued on his forehead.The complicated and excruciatingly long drawn-out plot might make you want to stop watching this movie.. But the best part of the movie does not come until the very end when the final battle happens.There is a dramatic EXTREMELY hilarious showdown between hundreds of drug dealing ninjas and the Army/Police. It was AMAZING!!! If you are a fan of low-budget kung fu movies with impossibly confusing plots and even worse acting, Ninja in the Killing Fields is for you. You can find it at your local Dollar Tree!
