흥미로운 사실
Space Ninjas is a 2019 sci-fi comedy film written and directed by Scott McQuaid. It is about Ninjas from outer space who invade a high school. The film features Dirk Benedict, Jon T. Benn, Godfrey Ho, Yi Jane, Brian Narelle, Damien Zachary and Bryan Tiang.
Production
The film was produced by Plastic Monkey Films and shot in Kuala Lumpur on a shoestring budget in an intense 22 days, filming through the night on location at an international high school. Although the director of photography, Ganesh Venugopal, shot the bulk of the movie, second unit scenes were filmed by the director, Scott McQuaid, and included scenes shot in America and Hong Kong.
During the shoot at the high school, lead actress Yi Jane was taking her final exams at the same school. Despite the grueling all-night shooting schedule, she still managed to score perfect A's. The three Space Ninja assassins were all played by Bryan Tiang; due to the lack of budget there was only one costume.
McQuaid is a fan of American director John Carpenter’s work, so he cast Brain Narelle in his first feature film, as Carpenter had done in his debut B-movie Dark Star forty-five years earlier.
Razif Hashim, famed for his Asian food TV show, was cast as Mr. Hughes after the director bumped into him at a theatre show. Damien Zachary, who played the comedic Zack character, slept on set some nights, so he didn't have to keep traveling back and forth. Cassandra Foo was cast as Keiko after the director saw her in a rendition of the musical Grease.
In the original script, the location for the ninja invasion was a campsite, but after a few more drafts the narrative was re-visualized and set at a high school, noting homage ties to The Breakfast Club.
