New York Ninja is a 2021 American action film written, directed by and starring John Liu. It was shot in 1984 and was originally planned to be released by 21st Century with advertisements even appearing in trade magazines, but it was cancelled when the company went bankrupt. The film would not be released until 2021, when its footage was discovered and restored by the film preservation and home video distributor Vinegar Syndrome.
With no audio, storyboards, or scripts the film was reconstructed by a new director Kurtis M. Spieler and had to be dubbed as well. Because of the lack of actor credits, most of the on-screen actors are currently unknown.
The dub was produced by 3Beep Inc. in New York. It was released to Blu-Ray in November 2021.
