Joe (Michael Dudikoff) and Jackson (Steve James) are assigned to an embassy detail on a tropical island where U.S. servicemen are disappearing, and they eventually discover why.
Sad sequel to the sad original has some of the worst genetically modified ninjas ever. Boring, poorly choreographed fight scenes are punctuated by one of the silliest plots ever saddled onto the franchise. Steve James seems to be the only one here having any fun- he would pass away a few years later after this film's release, much too young. I think I'm giving up on this silly series two entries in.
