For those of you who enjoy laughing though anything from Johnny Sokko and His Giant Robot to Plan 9 From Outer Space, this is an under-appreciated gem.I first came across this film as part of a double feature DVD at a 99 Cent Store, around 2002, and even then (I was 10), the poorly printed label and Imation-labeled DVD seemed uniquely cheap. This was one of the films (along with some of the early Godzilla movies and "Gargoyle") that ignited my interest in mock-able/campy films.Let me just describe the first 15 minutes for you: 7 trained ninja children converge on a location. One rides a unicycle, another comes in on a parachute. These children are managed (inexplicably) by a weird servant who wears a purple suit and green tie, and drives they around in a Rolls Royce. They later fight the Triads and stop street crimes, and in general the plot wanders and loses focus. But for those who are looking for this sort of thing, that can only be seen as a bonus. Captivating throughout, this terrible film will keep you on your toes with new surprises every few minutes.A final teaser: the scene where the children frame their "bodyguard" in the pink suit for groping a woman. One of those porcelain Ronald MacDonald statues on benches is involved in the scene.

View MoreOver two decades before Kick Ass, the 7 Lucky Ninja Kids – decked out in 1980s street fashion, were trading punches with adult villains to a musical soundtrack composed of almost certainly unlicensed western pop songs. The result is a badly dubbed and unintentionally hilarious movie that was inappropriately marketed to children, despite the violence, mild language and sexual innuendo. Barely a B-movie, 7 Lucky Kids has little- to-no plot and is perhaps most entertaining during the fighting musical montage which introduces the kids before they attempt to return the lost diamond and do battle with an inept gang of mobsters.

View MoreIf you've ever said to yourself, "Gee, I've always wanted a Hong-Kong-produced kung-fu flick with untalented actors, illegally-used music tracks, and poor dubbing", then this film is for you. Beginning with an opening song or sorts, which seems to be based on the Madonna's hit song "Like a Virgin", accompanied by a montage of ninja kid fighting scenes. But wait! this video gets even worse. The voice-over actors sound like rejects from a Saturday-morning cartoon, and the plot is about as deep and as an average episode of "Full House". Suitable only for MST3k-style viewing.
