Scene of the Week: The Octagon – Chuck Norris vs the Ninja Enforcer
It has been several years since I’ve watched The Octagon but when you pair up Chuck Norris and Richard Norton you already know the outcome is going to be straight fire! Ninjas have always been awesome but in 1980 they were entering a new era of worldwide acceptance and soon they would be all over the movie and television screen.
Chuck Norris wasn’t the first action star to go toe to toe with the shadowy killers but it remains one of his earliest knockout fight scenes when we finally see Chuck lay the smackdown on a bunch of hooded maniacs. In the end, he goes up against the great Richard Norton as Kyo, the ninja enforcer for Tadashi Yamashita’s Seikura. It’s a fight scene that I would put up there with Chuck’s most memorable of all time.
Check it out and enjoy it for yourself!
