Episode 161 - Samurai Cop (1991)

About this episode

Cooper and Nolan discuss the cult classic 'Samurai Cop', highlighting its flaws and comedic elements.

Cooper and Nolan are coming face-to-face with a legend this week when they finally cover SAMURAI COP! This gloriously awful piece of low-budget 90s action can be found on pretty much any list of the best bad movies of all time, and one watch is all it takes to realize why. Between the terribly choreographed fight scenes, atrocious dialogue, and VERY questionable hat and wig choices, there's plenty to laugh at - and that's before you even mention the acting. No wonder it was BY FAR the most requested movie the podcast has ever had; this episode (featuring a total cop-out of a beer) is a straight-to-video disaster that might go straight to your heart.
