Trivia
This was the first film of a five picture deal for Lucinda Dickey who Menahem Golan wanted to make her a star very badly. The other films in the deal included Breakin' (1984), Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo (1984), Breakin' 3, which was planned but fell apart, King Solomon's Mines and its sequel, Allan Quartermain And The Lost City of Gold. The latter three films didn't happen for her because she felt that both she and Cannon Films were totally tired of each other at that point.

Goofs
After the evil ninja comes out of the lake he is soaked from head to toe. In the next shot, he continues to fight police officers and is bone dry.

Quotes
Christie: If you're gonna book me then book me. Otherwise just let me out.
Secord: I'm not gonna book you. I wanna take you to my old neighborhood. There's a guy there I want you to beat up for me.

Alternate versions
The film was cut by 1 min 12 secs for its UK cinema release to remove all footage of metal throwing stars. All cuts were waived for the 2015 video release.

The second best ninja movie of all time!

I was a big fan of ninja movies in the mid-80's, and some of the late 80's. I first saw this movie back in 1985. It's the second best ninja movie ever made. It's very entertaining. Plenty of action in this movie. It is nearly as good as Revenge of the Ninja. I give ninja III:the domination ***1/2 out of ****
