When your house in the San Fernando Valley isn't nice enough to rent out for porn shoots, you rent it out for movies like this.

Totally worth it for the "undercover cop" joke.

That "undercover cop" line was almost clever.

Was there a time when the vest of a three-piece suit was intentionally that short?

Those trees with the spongy bark that peels off are definitely a Southern Cal thing.

They saved he TV for last, put two bullet holes in it, then there was only one when Samurai Cop got his man.

It's almost endearing how clever I'll bet the screenwriter thought that bulletproof vest twist was.

Pretty sweet how roughed up the blade of that sword is.

So this is where I realize what I said earlier but as soon as I posted I realized this was the final faceoff because two whites, duh.

That was like the lead-up to a sword fight between two four-year-olds.

This swordfight has the same frame rate as a Buster KEaton movie.

Just two white American dudes who look like linebackers operating by the code of the samurai.

The heavy committing seppeku is actually a pretty bad-ass ending if they had done anything to set it up in the previous 90 minutes.

He's kissing her neck like a seventh-grader thinks adults kiss before they do it.

So there's the worst movie ever made. Thanks for letting me host. Hope I didn't waste a couple hours of your time.

I am enjoying how many crew members had the self-respect to be credited by their first names only.

I had thought this before honestly, but I'm gonna insist in the fall we do Ghost Dog: Way Of The Samurai which is legit, no sarcasm in like my 20 or 30 favorite movies of all-time.

So did the red head show up for like one shot at the end or was I posting here and miss her getting killed?

That's probably far too good of a movie for this.

She showed up for a little more than one shot to get killed.

I do agree of course, but yet I think it could lend itself to a good discussion also?

(That said, it's probably better not to do movies you're better off actually watching the whole time instead of watching and typing.)

Amazon has some amazing “customers who watched” recommendations. Terror in Beverly Hills with Frank Stallone is on my watch list now

Re: Swamp Quarantine Movie Night - Samurai Cop (1991) , Thursday, July 30, 9 PM ET
I've found some incredible fucked up shit on Amazon that way. I have some recommendations if we start a thread of fucked up shit on Amazon Prime.

Red Letter Media did an interview with the main actor a few years back and he's pretty cool and self-aware. A lot of background info about the movie if you're still fascinated by what you saw:

That's the thing for me. It's one thing to watch and type if you've seen the movie many times ("Jackie Brown" worked well this way for most, if not all of us in that thread), but it's hard to pull off paying attention to a serious movie and keep up with the thread.
Feel free to bring back the Forrest Whitaker avatar, though.
