Miami Connection (1986, 82 minutes)

  
A gang of motorcycle riding Ninjas bust up a drug deal and steal all of the coke  (the opening theme song even has the line 'stealing your cocaine') and we meet the toughest gang in all of central Florida - the gooniest bunch to ever lace up camouflage pants. But then there's Dragon Sound, a band consisting of orphans who all live together and practice Tae Kwon Doe and are the new hot act in town. Too bad the new singer's older brother is leader of the tough gang and work with the Miami Ninja. When Dragon Sound perform their hit 'Against The Ninja' they're basically begging for a fight which soon takes place in the deserted streets of Orlando as the band beats up about 90 guys. Then we get a subplot about one of the band members' search for his father ('I did not know....you had a father', says the Tae Kwon Do master) and some talk about the band going on a world tour to unite everyone's love  for martial arts. Things escalate as the tough gang, including one guy in a sweet Pink Floyd hat, kidnaps one of the band members, which leads to more fights and then the Miami Ninjas break out the swords and throwing stars. Unfortunately, they picked the wrong musicians to mess with. This is probably the greatest rock n roll ninja movie ever
