You have the right to remain silent... dead silent A deadly "Code of Silence" sweeps through Los Angeles as gang violence erupts, taking no prisoners and leaving no witnesses alive. The police find themselves outgunned and out-sword-ed by Fujiyama's infamous Katana gang.Only one man has the training, expertise and swordsmanship needed to break the code. His name is Joe Marshall (Matt Hannon). They call him Samurai. He speaks fluent Japanese. He was trained by "The Masters" in Japan. Joe must strike a balance between his insatiable appetite for women and his quest to stop the gang violence. Endless obstacles abound; A horny nurse, a sex crazed policewoman, legendary henchmen (Robert Z'dar and Gerald Okamura) and countless petty thugs! (texte officiel du distributeur)

Get a second-rate actor or amateur extras, shoot it as a sequence of more or less unrelated scenes, add to that clouds and clouds of filmmaking errors that will make you have fits of laughter, and which are a joy to analyse in rewind, spice it up with a lot of clumsily staged love scenes like a bad Kama Sutra, and throw in some unexpected dialogue that makes your monitor crack, and you've got Samurai Cop. Yeah, this is The Room of the action buddy-cup movies. And all the absurdity is enhanced by the fact that, like Wiseau, Amir Shervan made it with a love of film and a conviction that he was making something world-class. I don’t know if it’s been featured in the Shockproof Film Festival, if not, it is a clear candidate.

À pleurer (de rire). Tourné par Amir Shervan, ce navet culte est hilarant de bout en bout tellement il est naïf et créatif dans ses expressions de détresse. Au début, je me suis demandé si Samouraï Cop n’avait pas été rendu médiocre consciemment, mais non, on dirait bien qu’il a été fait tout à fait sérieusement. Il décroche donc le premier prix dans la catégorie des films « nuls à en être drôles » et je n’hésiterai pas à le recommander autour de moi à l’avenir !

This is so stupid that it's great. The acting performances are terrible, the fashion is terrible, the fights surprisingly aren't that terrible, the tricks are done simply but effectively, and then there's the crazy idea with the police samurai that didn't really work out, but ok, and in the end, you have the most extreme B-movie that, as I said, is so stupid that it's excellent.
