    DiamondNinjaForce
    ...the film for you if you're the person who walked out of 'Poltergeist' thinking that film would have been much better had the house been built on an ancient ninja burial ground rather than an Indian one...included a sub-plot about ninjas feuding over a statue of the golden ninja warrior...featured characters called Fanny and Bobo...stolen Jimmy Page music from the Death Wish 2 soundtrack...and starred Richard Harrison as Gordon, striking fear into the hearts of his enemies with his ninja skills, excessive use of eye liner and Garfield telephone. Fear not, what Hollywood got wrong, Godfrey Ho put right with Diamond Ninja Force. "there are no ghosts...only ghost ninjas!!!!"

    Will Gordon be able to help rid the family of their ninja ghosts? propably not since the Richard Harrison footage was- as per usual- added to a film made a few years earlier ('Demon's Apartment' from 1985). Thanks to the wonders of editing though, he does regularly call them up on his Garfield phone to see how they are getting on.

    Diamond Ninja Force is 'sort of' a sequel to Ho's Ninja Terminator, with Harrison defending the same ninja statue, living in the same apartment, using the same phone and with Harrison's real life wife Maria Francesca once again playing his onscreen spouse. The only spanner in the works that prevents this from being an official sequel is that Harrison's Ninja Terminator character was called Harry whereas here he is Gordon, but then again continuity was never a Godfrey Ho strong point.
