RELEASE DATE: June 12, 2018

On June 12th, Shout! Factory is re-releasing Ninja III: The Domination on Blu-ray – but this time around – they’re adding deadlier upgrades (see their previous edition here).

This 3rd sequel (by title and star, otherwise unrelated) to Enter the Ninja and Revenge of the Ninja teams Lucinda Dickey (Breakin’) with the legendary Sho Kosugi (9 Deaths of the Ninja). The film also stars David Chung (Missing in Action 2: The Beginning) and James Hong (Big Trouble in Little China).

Check out Shout’s comments below:

1984’s Ninja III: The Domination from Cannon Pictures is one of the most bonkers and WTF films we’ve ever put on Blu-ray. For those who haven’t seen it, it’s a wild concoction of police shootouts, martial arts, golfing, The Exorcist, sex, hot tubs, Flashdance and video games (even V-8 makes a memorable appearance). Although we knew the film had a vocal following when we released it in 2014, we didn’t quite know what to expect or how big it would be. The sales numbers surprised us and it over-performed.

What’s always bugged us though was that our release was a little on the “barebones” side, save for a commentary. Today, we correct that. We are re-releasing Ninja III again on June 12th as a “Collector’s Edition” Blu-ray with a serious upgrade in picture and extras.

Some confirmed details as follows:

The newly-commissioned artwork pictured comes to us from artist Joel Robinson (Silent Night Deadly Night, Misery, Tales from the Hood). This art will be front-facing and the reverse side of the wrap will be the original theatrical poster art.

Release will come with a slipcover (guaranteed for three months after its original release date).

We are doing a new 4K scan of the film from original film elements.
