Revenge of the Ninja is a 1983 American martial arts action film directed by Sam Firstenberg and starring Sho Kosugi, Keith Vitali, Virgil Frye, Arthur Roberts and Kane Kosugi in his film debut. The plot follows a ninja trying to protect his only son from a cabal of ruthless gangsters.

It is the second installment in Cannon Films' "Ninja Trilogy" anthology series, starting with Enter the Ninja (1981) and ending with Ninja III: The Domination (1984). It was very successful at the box office, despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, and has developed a cult following.
