Thanks for the comments man. Good to finally get some feedback. What form of martial art did you study? There was no real 'good guy' in the film. The first movie was an action/comedy that we completely improvised and shot in two hours and was just a simple film about a Ninja being send to assassinate a pimp. The second film I fully scripted and was supposed to be about the pimp coming back from the grave as a zombie who has to consume a human brain to be restored to his old self so that he can have his revenge. Later on in the film the pimp succeeds in regenerating himself and proves to be too powerful for the ninja to fight on his own so he teams up with another ninja which is where this scene starts. I know it's a very simple plot but it was purely intended as a bit of fun to kill time in the summer.

There is a site that has a video game contest every year that has to feature pirates, zombies and or ninjas. You might consider throwing in a pirate, just for the hell of it. I dug the cinematography and the choreography. I studied martial arts 20 years so I just don't say that arbitrarily. Is there a good guy in this? I assume it's the pimp as anti-hero but I wasn't sure.

Sorry, forgot to mention, the original was an action/comedy which is why there were some cheesy shots and expressions. The full film was going to be about 20 minutes long and was mostly going to be a comedy but, in the end, we only filmed the final action scene. Also, on reflection, i've just realized how crap the staff clash effect is. Definitely wont be using that again....
