Background

It was released on VHS videotape as Ninja Nightmare by the Los Angeles-based company, Prism Entertainment Corp.[7] Some video release titles are confusing.[8]

According to Code Red, after years of only an inferior print as the master for the video release, the original negative was obtained and a high quality 16x9 master was created. The scenes that were shot at night were more viewable and an extra scene not seen on the video release was added. An audio commentary that Leo Fong had recorded was added.[9] It was later released on DVD in 2009 as The Last Reunion. The DVD release was by Rare Flix.[10][11]
