The

A - Z

of Ninja Movies

I really wish I could say that this is a complete list of all the Ninja movies ever made. Well, I wouldn't lie to you. It simply isn't. But it is as complete and as accurate as my researches allow. This list includes films with the word 'Ninja' in the (alternative) title, plus - of course - films in which Ninjas make an appearance (respectively a character that can be called a 'Ninja' and I really did stretch my imagination in this respect). If you know of some Ninja flicks that are not included in this list than I'd really appreciate it if you let me know. You can contact me under: weirdninjas@gmx.at. Many thanks in advance!
