Search - Classic Sonny Chiba Movies (Shogun's Ninja / Sister Street Fighter / The Body Guard) on DVD

Here is a trio of Sonny Chiba films. The first, Shogun's Ninja, is pretty boring. Not a lot going on in it, other than some Sonny Chiba action. The second is Sister Street Fighter. In it, Sonny isn't playing the character from the other films, Terry Surrugi; he's a monk! The title character is a woman who runs afoul of a gang of scum and has to battle them. There is some good fighting and some naked chicks tied up. Not as good as the first couple of Street Fighter films. The final movie is The Bodyguard. This is one of Sonny's better movies. Quentin Tarantino lifted some stuff from this one. Sonny plays a bodyguard who brutally kills scum who are trying to kill a woman he is protecting. This one has some great gruesome scenes in it. Overall, a good little set...three movies for the price of one.

Sonny Chiba Fun

"Body Guard 2.5/5

Cast: Sonny Chiba

I am a fan of Sonny Chiba. Not a huge fan but a fan nonetheless. Okay I'm going to be honest I bought this film for a dollar and have seen it at least 10 times. The version I own is from Digiview Productions and is poor quality and is probable cut. This film is authentic Sonny Chiba and it is a good movie don't get me wrong. Well for the price I paid for it I guess it was worth it."
