When uptight Barry's roommate suddenly dies from an allergic reaction to a piece of fruit, there's not much time to find another source of rent money, let alone screen for personal compatibility. Had there been, he probably would not have opted to share his apartment with a ninja -- particularly because the position of roommate is coveted within the ninja community. Before Barry realizes what's happening to him, the apartment is a regular mess of martial artists. A Ninja Pays Half My Rent was directed by Steve Tsuchida, and features Timm Sharp, Steve Yeager, and Shin Koyamada.
