Agreed with the IMBD being incomplete. I actually found one movie where it was missing a very important co-star.

Legend tells us that Ninja Busters is the single worst movie ever made, but this has yet to be verified by independant observers, since no one who's watched it has lived to tell the tale!!

I think they removed the details for your protection and to avoid any possible future lawsuits.

P.S. Bill Martell is the Devil and his vile works are designed to speed the coming of the Final Battle.

Ok yahoo has a bit more info. After searching ten pages of links on google with different ways of saying it, I can say I officially know nothing about ninja busters other than a bunch of sites called it a terrible movie even for 1984.

  Where can I get a copy Im seriously curious now.

 No! I shall not spoil it for you!  That would be tantamount to attempting to create a boat out of green wood. The material out of which the vehicle of truth is to be constructed must first be tempered.

The thing that bothers me the most about IMDB is the fact that ratings can be inaccurate.

For example, take 2 classic Japanese horror movies: Kairo and Ringu. Kairo got 6.7 , and Ringu got 7.4 (as of Feb 28 / 2007).
I guarantee Kairo is much scarier than Ringu, but these voters don't think so!! Kairo makes a lasting impression on you - whenever you're in a dark place, you think about the movie. Ringu is over-hyped, the story is too rushed, and the climax isn't even close to the scares that Kairo presents. I'm never worried about the chick from Ringu popping out of nowhere; however, Kairo's ghosts are F'N SCARY!!! I keep thinking they would appear from under the bed, when I look in the bathroom mirror when I'm in there at night - ANYWHERE!

So don't trust the IMDB ratings.

Got some info at [a href="vny!://www.scriptsecrets.net"]www.scriptsecrets.net[/a].  Some googling of the directer, what have you.  Ask Bill Martell. He might know.
