Review of Psycho Cop (1989) by Jason D — 09 Nov 2008
A Jekyll and Hyde type of slasher film in that on hand, we have an incredibly dull cast of 6 ignoramuses completely destroying the film with their dull acting as 6 youths out to spend some time at a high class house in the middle of the woods.
On the other hand lies true cinematic greatness in the form of Officer Joe Vickers (played deliriously and with great 80's humor by Bobby Ray Schaffer) who is a satanic psychopathic cop that can dissolve and reappear ANYWHERE he wants to in this entire fucking film.
When the killing and pun-tastic one-liners start happening, this film is amazing, but getting to that point is like pulling teeth. That part of the movie should have been called The Case of the Missing Shit, because, LITERALLY, all that was happening was cast members missing shit; shoes, toothbrush, purse, beers, soup, hair brush; it never fucking ended.
...that is, until Officer Vickers started ending people! This film is hilariously bad, but totally worth watching. Fair warning though, the sequel, Psycho Cop Returns, is far superior, far funnier, and far more violent than this film.
