Nomination Year: 2001

SYNOPSIS: Another film which has Richard Harrison and other Caucasian actors spliced into an otherwise-Oriental martial arts film.

Richard Harrison (our Caucasian hero) has left the Ninja(r) Empire after realizing that it has become corrupt. The Ninja(r) Empire sends operatives to kill him.

Meanwhile, in the Oriental film, Richard (via telephone) contacts a local police detective (our Oriental hero), and puts him on the trail of the boss of the Ninja(r) Empire, which results in everyone being attacked by Ninjas (in one particularly memorable scene, Ninjas on rollerskates -vs- our hero in a three-wheeled car).

"Wanna Run That By Me Again?"
Everyone Must Die! Everyone must die! Why was that again? Something to do with the ninja something something what now? Oh, just forget it....	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

"Cutting Butter With A Chainsaw"
Bazooka Pistol vs. Pinto Nothing quite says overkill like the combination of a very large gun and a very small car.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

"WHAT?!"
Magician Drug Dealer The drug dealer pulls packets of drugs out of the seemingly most innocent and unlikely of places -- and he keeps it up for quite a while (fourteen packets!). As though he were a stage magician gone horribly terribly awry.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

"Let's Up The Rating To 'R'"
"Come Scrub My Back..." The woman who leads the consortium of evil ninjas is trying to seduce her date for the evening. She'll be ready in just a minute -- but she'd be ready faster if he came into the shower and scrubbed her back.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

Worst Picture
Roller Ninjas vs. Trike Car (clip two) - The Local Police Detective is being chased by several ninjas. He hops into his (dinky little three-wheeled) car and speeds off. But the ninjas are on roller skates! They follow him on a merry chase through town until he drives uphill, at which point the ninjas get all tired out and give up. I hope you don't think I'm joking.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

"Ninja!" (clip one) - Richard Harrison's ninja runs up a large grassy hill, and at the top he spreads his arms wide, and yells "Ninja!"

Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!
