Meh. Not sure I need to rewatch this

Meh. Not sure I need to rewatch this Charles Band-produced flick again. I’ll stick with Fred Schepisi’s ICEMAN instead the next time want to see an unfrozen person wake up in the 20th Century. Below is my review from the last time I saw it about 9 years ago.  1-1-15 Ghost Warrior (1984) **1/2 Empire Pictures almost made a smart film that took the idea of an unfrozen man from the past from “Iceman” but instead of making a moving story about taking someone out of their place and time, producers Charles and Albert Band could not resist making it a bizarrely cheesy hybrid of 80s ninja films and Death Wish-like street justice. Incredibly silly, but still entertaining enough if you’re in the mood for direct-to-video 80s cheese. Underrated composer Richard Band provides a nice score.

I came into this movie expecting a few

I came into this movie expecting a few laughs and nothing special in terms of acting or plot. Well I got my laughs but in the end found myself somewhat impressed with its conclusion. This movie may never reach cult status but will gain respect from those who do stumble upon it.

A samurai named Yoshimitsu (Hiroshi Fujioka, the original

A samurai named Yoshimitsu (Hiroshi Fujioka, the original Kamen Rider) is overwhelmed in battle and falls into a frozen lake where he freezes over the decades before skiier find his body. Soon, Dr. Richard (John Calvin) forgoes the traditional autopsy and revives the swordsman with some blue lights and introduces him to a modern world he can't come close to understanding even with the help of an Asian studies expert named Chris Welles (Janet Julian, Humongous). Then one night, a janitor breaks in and tries to steal the thawed Japanese swordsman's katana and gets sliced in half, sending Yoshimitsu on the run (but not before listening to watching the WASP footage of them performing "Tormentor" from The Dungeonmaster). He wanders Los Angeles, saves an old vet (Charles Lampkin) from a street gang and getting into no small manner of trouble. Unlike so many frozen out of time movies, things in no way go smoothly or end happily. Also known as Swordkill, this shot in Richmond, Virginia film was one I've been trying to find for some time. It was co-produced by Arthur Band, who must have had a calming influence on Charles for this one (Richard did the music making this a Band family effort). It was directed by J. Larry Carroll, who edited Roar, Dracula's Dog, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Massacre at Central High and The Hills Have Eyes before writing Tourist Trap and tons of cartoons, as well as directing only this one movie and written by Tim Curnan, who wrote the wonderful Forbidden World. It's 81 minutes long which is exactly how long this movie should be.
