It is a lame, lazy, and insane attempt at parody of the original film. The plot is convoluted, the dialogue at times impossible to understand, the jokes are absolutely terrible, the acting is atrocious... And none of it has the 'so bad it's good' feel to it. It's just bad, unbelievably bad. The people behind the project were misguided in every respect imaginable. This film has none of the charm or involuntary humour of the original. It's just unbelievably dull nonsense. Shame on you for trying to make money in such a cheap way!

SAMURAI COP 2: DEADLY VENGEANCE is a fan made film, funded by Kickstarter and released as a tribute to the original SAMURAI COP. For those who don't know, SAMURAI COP (and the likes of KILLING American STYLE) were cheap, inept and cheesy low budget action flicks from the early 1990s which today have a kind of cult charm and so-bad-it's-good feel.Sadly, this follow up makes a huge mistake in that it looks and feels nothing like the original movie. All of the humour and the goofiness has gone and what we're left with is a cookie cutter film packed with all the awfulness a typical Z-grade film can muster: terrible stilted acting (most of the cast are moonlighting porn performers), embarrassingly bad direction, rubbish fight scenes, and a general lack of plot cohesion. Amir Shervan, who wrote and directed the original SAMURAI COP, must be spinning in his grave.I think SAMURAI COP 2 is a good example of the difference between old B-movies and new ones. The old B-movies at least had something going for them; they weren't perfect, but they had a kind of cheesy, hard-working charm. These days, film-making is so cheap that anybody can make a B-flick, except few amateur film-makers have the talent even to make so-bad-it's-good productions. They're mostly just horrid, like this one.Robert Z'Dar died before the production began - that was a lucky break - but Mathew Karedas, Mark Frazer, and Cranston Komuro all return from the original film and yes, Karedas is still the bad actor that he always was. If you were ever interested in seeing how badly Laurene Landon (MANIAC COP) has aged, here's your chance. Oh, and Bai Ling (DUMPLINGS) is here too in her most awful performance yet; I guess she really will appear in any old thing.

But this one is a new low. It's one of those movies you know the director is a little cuck with a femdom fetish so instead of doing porn he makes a pathetic, laughably low-quality movie where women which he deems attractive are overly-sexualized and kill men, while laughing in bad acting. Movies like that exist and can be found here and there and I call them "cuck genre" for a good reason.The acting is (expectedly) hilariously bad, and the more the "actors" try hard to belch a "serious" line the more ridiculous it sounds. The whole movie is a cringe fest and I don't know what the target audience was, when a cuck makes a fetish movie for himself, the possibility the majority of people will enjoy it is extremely tiny. But judging by the 6-star rating, I assume the niche target audience of cucks with the same pathetic fetish found the movie and liked the underlying cuck porn it features.But for a normal person, it's just another sad little guy's dream of sharing his love for being a loser with an audience.

It's 25 years later, and after Jennifer is brutally killed, Detective Frank Washington is forced to team up with his long estranged partner Joe Marshall.It seems that an old enemy has resurfaced, and they have to solve a series of assassinations being committed by a secret group of female vigilante killers......When I saw the first Samurai Cop, I was dazzled by just how entertainingly bad the film was. It was a marvel of cinematic exploitative trash, it took me back to the early nineties, and I loved every minute of it.I never read anything about the sequel, I was under the impression that it was a rushed released film to cash in on the cult status that SC1 was bound to gain, much in the vein of King Of The Kickboxers, of Eye Of The Eagle.I had no idea that it was literally made last year, and most of the cast had come back from beyond obscurity.It's no surprise that it doesn't live up to the 'so bad it's good' label that SC1 has, but for sheer nostalgia value, it's good fun while it lasts.The writers know that what made SC1 so popular was the poor editing, the bad action, and the unintentional cheesiness the whole film had. So it's pretty impossible to recreate that 'magic', so they go for broke and decide to make the whole thing as bonkers as they can.And for the most part it works, having Frank have some weird, drug induced dreams that appear to have him being in a TV show is quite leftfield, but we've seen it before in Natural Born Killers and Crank 2. And Joe breaking the fourth wall makes the viewer smile, but only because I brings back memories of SC1.And this is the films fundamental problem, we've seen it all before, and no matter how many of the original cast you can bring back from obscurity, or having the stunt casting of Tommy Wiseau as the main villain, you are just yearning for the for SC1.And what makes SC1 so unique is that it was made in a time where on screen sexism, gratuitous violence, and sheer awful acting was accepted. It wasn't trying to be meta, hip, or clever, it was aimed for people who just wanted to see people kick ten bells out of somebody else, and not having to worry about following a narrative, because every one of these films followed the same rules: Introduction, Fight, Loss, Revenge, Get The Girl.......Fin.So in the 25 years that have passed, the film, and pretty much the cast have been lost in translation. The film isn't going to win any new fans, because it tries to hard to be something it isn't, and for people who haven't seen the original for sometime, it may be a crushing disappointment.My advice, see the original first, and then this straight after.After the shock of seeing Frank go from Fabio to Skeletor, you may appreciate it more than you should.
