So, 'The Ninja Vixens: The Kagero Squad' is this odd gem from 1990 that dives into the covert world of female ninjas during Japan's Edo period. The atmosphere is thick with intrigue and a touch of camp, really. There's a unique blend of action and drama that keeps it engaging, but it's the practical effects and choreography that stand out to me—there's something about the way they pull off the stunts that feels authentically gritty. The performances, especially from the lead, have a raw intensity that adds to the overall vibe. It's not your standard ninja flick, so it has a certain edge to it that collectors appreciate, making it a curious piece for those interested in this niche genre.
This film has had a bit of a mixed history in terms of availability. Its status as a niche title means that it's not the easiest to find on physical media, which often drives collector interest. There are a few editions out there, but they tend to be limited in scope, making good copies somewhat sought after. For those into obscure martial arts films or the portrayal of female empowerment in historical contexts, this one definitely holds a special appeal.
