Plot summary

Revenge of the Ninja opens with an attack on the home of Cho (the Shô Kosugi character) in Japan, resulting in the slaughter of his entire family except for his mother and his younger son, Kane (played by Kosugi's actual son, Kane Kosugi). When Cho arrives at his estate and discovers the carnage, the ninjas attempt to kill him as well, but Cho proves too much for them. Afterwards, however, he swears off being a ninja forever and moves to the United States with his son where he opens a doll shop with the help of his friend, Braden. Kane Kosugi (born October 11, 1974 in Los Angeles, California) is a Japanese-American martial artist and actor. ...

But when he discovers that Braden has betrayed him and is using his dolls as a means to ship heroin into the country - and turns out to be a ninja himself -, killing his mother and abducting his son in the process, Cho must don his ninja attire once more to fight the bad guys and rescue his son. The film ends with a climactic battle between Ninja Braden and Cho, on top of a skyscraper. After a long struggle Cho kills Braden and is reunited with his son.
