Wissenswertes
Star Jeff Speakman signed a multi-picture deal at Paramount. One of the two of the two planned movies was a sequel to this film, and another script Paramount optioned about a cop fighting a terrorist. After the Paramount deal fell through, that script went on to Twentieth Century Fox and became Speed (1994).

Patzer
When "Jeff" is fighting the gang of thugs in the antique store at the beginning, he knocks the guy through the window (same one he pulled through at the start of the fight). When the guy is shown landing, there is a glimpse of a blue landing mat just outside the window.

Zitate
Jeff: I wonder if I could kick your ass. No, not just you. All three of you.
Bandana: Are you serious?
Jeff: Yeah. Are you? I take on all three of you, you point me in the right direction. Deal?
Bandana: Full contact. No protection.
Jeff: No problem.

Crazy Credits
Before the credits there is the following line: 'This film is dedicated to Ed Parker and the spirit of Kenpo.'

Alternative Versionen
TV versions airing on TBS have two additional scenes in which Jennifer (Mariska Hargitay) has lines: one after Kim's funeral, in which she and Jeff catch up; and the other some days later, in which Jennifer and Jeff share a kiss before ninjas attack the two at the garden where she works. Theatrical and video versions have edited out any romance between Jennifer and Jeff in the story.

Absolute Masterpiece!

THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE! This is one of the best martial arts movie I've ever seen. Way to go Jeff Speakman!!! You make Jean Claude Van Damme look like a fly on the wall. You should of been in Expendables 2! I DEFINITELY CAN NOT SAY THE SAME FOR JEAN CLAUDE! I wish you were in more movies because I only remember a good handful that are decent. This completely teaches the viewer the meaning of what it is to be self-discovering. This is just a golden gem that needs to be discovered by martial arts collectors all over the world. If you like fighting movies I would highly recommend you go on a hunting spree for this movie because it is such a rare treat that needs to be cherished by everybody in the world. R.I.P. John Dye, Mako, and Professor Toru Tanaka you guys will always be remembered for your roles in this perfectly Supreme movie, from my childhood. Jeff if you are reading this I just want you to know, you should come back to making these kinds of movies, your presence is missed dearly.
