Richard Harrison, Star of Spaghetti Westerns and Sword-and-Sandal Flicks, Dies at 90 hollywoodreporter.com/movies…

***New Announcement#3!*** Up for pre-order now at Cauldron-Films.com (and up later at DiabolikDVD.com when the site is fully operational again)! DIAMOND NINJA FORCE (Hong Kong, 1985) DEMON'S APARTMENT (Taiwan, 1985) DIAMOND NINJA FORCE is maybe the wildest of all the films directed by Godfrey Ho for IFD. Taking footage from three different shoots with Richard Harrison and combining it with a sleazy Taiwanese horror film called DEMON’S APARTMENT (also included in this release), Ho and company have created one of the strangest ninja films ever made. Neon Eagle Video has restored both films from their original negatives / best available film elements straight from the IFD vaults, and they are presented here in HD for the first time ever, along with a host of exclusive extras. DIAMOND NINJA FORCE In more or less a direct sequel to NINJA TERMINATOR, DIAMOND NINJA FORCE finds Richard Harrison battling more bad guys with swords, magic, explosions, and mustaches. His foes, the Black Ninja Clan, are trying to force a real estate heiress to sell her land so they can reclaim the bodies of their ancestors. To help persuade her, they send in the Ghost Ninja, a horny specter who never does anything remotely ninja-like but does get involved in the heiress’ sex life with her husband. Meanwhile, the Black Ninja Clan murders Richard Harrison’s wife for no reason. And you know what that means – REVENGE! Neon Eagle Video has spared no expense in order to restore this brain-damaging classic of ‘cut and paste’ action cinema from its original negative and presents it proudly in this deluxe package. DEMON’S APARTMENT A corrupt real estate baron covers up (literally) the fact that his latest housing project is built over a mass unmarked grave, which comes back to haunt (also literally) the family that moves into one of the bungalows. Mom starts seeing ghosts and freaking out almost immediately upon arriving, while Dad is convinced she’s “just seeing things” and tries to calm her down by having sex with her (which actually seems to work). Meanwhile their empty-headed son is caught between a kindly Granny ghost and a skeevy specter that is anxious to drink his blood, unaware that the kid has hepatitis (?!?). But the real trouble starts when the troubled spirit of a young lady gets all worked up by the sexy-times between perpetually nervous Mom and perpetually horny Dad, and decides to get in on the action, initiating a nasty possession that doesn’t end well for anyone. DEMON’S APARTMENT (a.k.a. GHOST RAPIST, a title we’re not using for obvious reasons) is a sleazed-up POLTERGEIST riff from mid-80s Taiwan that was used as the ‘source film’ for the IFD produced Godfrey Ho joint DIAMOND NINJA FORCE, also featured in this set. The film hits you with an almost constant barrage of insanity, with severed heads in laundry baskets, puking ghosts, gambling addict ghosts, erotic home abortions, cowardly exorcists, and much more. Neon Eagle Video is totally psyched to present this Asian horror oddity on US home video for the first time ever, from an exclusive new 4K restoration.
