Whatever the reason, the producers knew what they were doing, because this is an entertaining movie. She's the most beef cake actress I've ever seen. As you can see, the premise of the story suddenly happens, and then just keeps going without any explanation, but you don't care because of Lucinda's physical charm. How would they save the girl from the ninja possession ? This is movie that's purely made for entertainment. He's a ninja too, and seems to know all about what's going on, and shows up at key locations (Again for no reason explained). Then the possessed girl goes out on the revenge on people that shot the first ninja guy. Then a strange thing happens: The spirit of the sword transfers to the girl, and now the girl becomes the super ninja. Then he escapes, and meets a girl (Lucinda Dicky). ![]() ![]() Cops shoots him with guns and shot guns, but the ninja guy doesn't die (Again no reason). He then goes out to a golf course, and kills a couple (Again it's not explained who they were) and gets chased by the cops. He finds it, and the sword transforms him into a super ninja. For almost no reason at all (At least it's not explained in the movie), a guy comes into a cave looking for a hidden sword. They had series of low budget movies that were pretty entertaining. Dressing up in outfits that reinforce racist stereotypes is a form of blackface and this goes for all costumes on this list.This is one of the many Golan - Globus made movie. Never, under any circumstance, is blackface ever OK. Wearing a traditional Indian dress and calling it “Bollywood” isn’t a costume, it’s an offensive stereotype that flattens all Indian culture into one trope. It isn’t a person who is free-spirited, it is a costume that plays into the discrimination of Romanians. The “G” word is actually a racial slur, and here’s why, according to NOW.org, this word has been historically used to stigmatize and discriminate against Romani people, who are an ethnic minority group with a history of persecution in Europe. Geishas were not sex workers, they were entertainers, to have the assumption that it’s “sexy” is not cool and very much problematic. Sugar skulls and calaveras are a symbol of this day, and it’s very sacred. Dia De Los Muertos is a Mexican holiday made to honor friends and family who have passed away. Anything that has to do with The Day of the DeadĪgain, Mexican culture is not a costume, and lets get clear on something, Halloween and The Day of the Dead are two completely different Holidays. Why, just why? I mean, it’s pretty obvious. So wearing a costume like this, only exacerbates harmful stereotypes about real religions. None of these religions resemble the Hollywood version of voodoo. ![]() The most well-known in American is Haitian Vodou. “Voodoo” is usually used in religions practiced in Brazil, Louisiana, Dominican Republic and Cuba. Native AmericanĬonsidering the killings of Indigenous Americans during the time of the United States founding and the fact that Native Americans still to this day experience discrimination on an extremely high level, this costume is very much inappropriate. ![]() This costume brings up reminders of an ugly and violent past. According to the Ancient History sources, an ankh, (what the woman in the picture is holding,) was appropriated by the Christians in the 4th century CE as a symbol of their God. This might seem like a beautiful costume, but it’s a symbol of a culture that was violently appropriated centuries ago. The ‘ninja” costume is basically a parody of the real-life ninjas that existed in Japan. Ninjas are real people who existed in Japan and did similar work to our modern-day CIA. Throughout the years ninjas on TV were made to look sneaky, sexy and seductive, but many people don’t know the truth about ninjas and why the costume is offensive to Japanese culture. However, there is nothing wrong with wanting to pay homage to a certain culture, but make sure to do it in a way that it isn’t offensive. All of these examples depict racial stereotypes.
