Samurai Cop (1989)
Ahh, the good old eighties. The period where you could make a movie for $900,- and eventually get it released. Actually between 1984 and around 1990 it was the golden age for low budget films. Everything could get a proper release in theatres or on video.
But if you think you have seen everything comes Amir Shervan’s 1989 film Samurai Cop. Starring the famous Robert ‘The Face’ Z’Dar. Who off course played the Maniac Cop in William Lustig’s 1988 film Maniac Cop. But actually that’s the only link with Maniac Cop that can be made. The film has nothing to do with Lustig’s film. Robert Z’Dar doesn’t even play the Samurai Cop, he plays Fujiyama’s (The Boss) henchman. The Actual Samurai Cop gets played by Matt Hannon in his only film roll. Sad that they didn’t track this guy down because I would love to see an interview with him and maybe him starring in some new films.
So, the samurai cop is played by Matt Hannon who looks more like a long haired beach boy then a samurai. And next to the samurai cop you’ve got his partner in crime Frank with his famous laughs, Ha-ha-ha.
The film is about a Japanese organisation that deals in cocaine. Under the lead of Fujiyama. Who gets less screening time then his henchman Yamashita played by Robert Z’Dar. So the samurai cop and Frank have to stop this organisation.
Also one roll that stood out to me was played by Krista Lane who only is there to say ‘The Boss Is Coming’ and be in the only sex scene together with Z’Dar. But coming back to Krista, she is actually the same girl that plays in such classics as: Dial A Dick, Ramb-Ohh!, Deep Throat II and Captain Hooker & Peter Porn. Yes, she was a famous porn actress and now she is playing in this movie.
Another famous B-Movie actor is the police captain played by Jimmy Williams who played In such classics as Island Of Blood and Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers. The most famous actor in the cast is probably Gerald Okamura witch you might know from Big Trouble In Little China as Wing Kong Hatchet Man.
So Samurai Cop and Frank go after the bad guys and take them out one by one. In the mean while the samurai cop does it with 5 women trout the movie. But more then some French kissing is not there. (Apart from Melissa Moore!)
Frank makes some jokes that you should see to believe. He makes the joke about that he can’t burn his ass because it’s already black twice! And the most funny is when he crouches under a fence and the samurai cop asks him why he crouched underneath the fence and then the famous response ‘Well, I am an undercover cop’. Omg, that has to be the worst joke ever put in film.
Another famous scene witch you can see on youtube is the scene with the horny nurse, go watch it!
At the final fight scene at the house of Z’Dar, he and the Samurai Cop come into a final fight scene wich is really, really great.
I think that’s enough for now. So If you want to see a movie with all of this in it go get the dvd.
DVD Release: Samurai Cop is released by the Guilty Pleasures label. Apart from the movie it also contains an intro by Joe Bob Briggs, a Joe Bob Briggs Comedy Commentary (Hilarious) and an interview with Robert ‘The Face’ Z’Dar. And some trailers and a Production Photo gallery. Go get it, it’s well worth your money!
