Description

Triple bill of superhero action comedies which follow the exploits of four anthropomorphic turtles who fight evil together in New York City. In 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' (1990) Leonardo (voice of Brian Tochi), Donatello (Corey Feldman), Michelangelo (Robbie Rist) and Raphael (Josh Pais) must rescue Splinter (Kevin Clash), their adoptive father and the rat ninja master who trained them. He has been kidnapped by the Shredder (James Saito), the ruthless leader of the Foot Clan, a group of ninjas who are responsible for a wave of thefts across the city.

However, the Shredder proves to be a formidable foe who shares a complicated past with Splinter and the Turtles will need help from reporter April O'Neil (Judith Hoag) and vigilante Casey Jones (Elias Koteas) to save him. In 'The Secret of the Ooze' (1991) the Shredder (François Chau) wants to avenge his previous defeat and so he kidnaps Professor Jordan Perry (David Warner), the man who created the substance which originally mutated Splinter and the Turtles. As the Shredder forces Perry to use the mutagen again, the Turtles race to find a way to stop him.

However, they find themselves at odds over how best to proceed and Raphael (voice of Laurie Faso) joins forces with pizza delivery boy and martial arts expert Keno (Ernie Reyes Jr.) to take on the Shredder and the Foot Clan alone. Finally, in 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III' (1993), when a mystical sceptre transports April (Paige Turco) back in time to feudal Japan, the Turtles quickly follow. After they rescue April, time is running out for them to return home but they choose to stay longer and come to the aid of the inhabitants of a small village struggling to defend themselves from the tyrannical Lord Norinaga (Sab Shimono).
