Amir Shervan must have had a weird star constellation above him at the time he shot Samurai Cop, because the movie he produced was unintentionally bad to a phenomenal degree. And sure enough, it’s a delight from A to Z for anyone with a sense of humour – no wonder there’s such a vast fan base today. To build upon such an anomaly was virtually impossible. Gregory Hanataka still gave it a try and came up with this deplorable 90-minute-long extended music video, which draws quite a significant part of the original cast back from oblivion, but as a whole, is barely watchable. What’s the point in being bad on purpose? There’s zero added value from that. The ending, in which Tommy Wiseau seems to have received an instruction from the director to bluntly burp out anything he thought would be funny, is one of the most pathetic climaxes and embarrassing scenes I’ve seen recently.

Deadly Disaster! This movie embodies everything I despise about Asylum films. Intentional trashiness just doesn’t work for me. The original Samurai Cop is a genuine "So Bad, It's Good" gem, a rare find whose charm and ineptitude can't be replicated. When it’s self-aware, it’s automatically ruined. The only upside here is that the original cast got a bit of well-deserved attention after all these years. Other than that, this unwatchable mess with its offensively terrible soundtrack has zero redeeming qualities. I suffered through it, but if there’s a third one, I’m definitely skipping it.

I wouldn't give it 100%, but 90% just because there are dead spots that didn't entertain me, but otherwise, this was a totally awesome B-movie, even better than the first film made twenty-five years ago. It's terribly cheap, sometimes terribly stupid, but still beautiful, nostalgic, and with a fantastic musical soundtrack. If they're picking for a third film, I'll be one of the bidders.
