Immortal Combat (1994)

I'm going to hand this one over to IMDB: "Rowdy Roddy Piper and Sonny Chiba battle an army of immortal ninja warriors." I can’t top that. Such insight. Such brevity. Even if ‘an army’ is a gross exaggeration of the truth. It’s more like a small cluster. And the only person you could realistically class as a 'ninja' is the shuriken-throwing Chiba. But the 'immortal' part is right, surely? Well, no... kind of but not really. But let's not dwell on the semantics. The important thing is that Piper and Chiba are in it. That’s why it deserves to be on Nutshell.
