The Director Who Disappeared: The Story of The Ninja Mission (2013)
Overview
Documentary about Swedish director, Mats Helge Olsson, an illiterate Swedish director most noted in his home country for debuting with the first "Lingonberry Western", DEAD MAN'S TRAIL, landing himself in debtors prison after producing Per Oscarsson's financial fiasco SWEDEN FOR THE SWEDES, creating the cheesy, low-budget, unlikely U.S. hit, NINJA MISSION, and then - before fading away into near total obscurity - following up on NINJA MISSION by simultaneously making three films (SILENT CHASE; FATAL SECRET; MAD BUNCH) with then-fading U.S. actor, David Carradine... who may not have known he was making more than one.
