SAMURAI COP Cracks Some Skulls This Weekend at Midnight at The Hi-Pointe Theater

The guys at Destroy The Brain.com have dusted off the 1980 “classic” SAMURAI COP  for their monthly Late Night Grindhouse midnight series this weekend (May 3rd and 4th). I have to confess SAMURAI COP  is a film I’m completely unfamiliar with. It looks like an amalgam of every cheap ‘80s  exploitation film made with nudity, mullets, hara-kiri, beheadings, racism, death by sword, synth rock, and slow motion karate duels! And it stars Robert Z’Dar the star of MANIAC COP with that enormous face, gigantic jaw and massive physique of his.

I’m so there! I’ve heard is that SAMURAI COP   is one serious deliciously demented slice of cinematic cheese and I cannot wait to see it this weekend at St. Louis’ fabulous Hi-Pointe Theater.

St. Louis filmgoers will have a chance to see SAMURAI COP  in all of its big screen glory this weekend when it plays as part of the Destroy the Brain monthly Late Night Grindhouse film series. It will be screened midnights in a 35mm print at St. Louis’ fabulous Hi-Pointe Theater (1005 McCausland Avenue) this Friday and Saturday (May 3rd and 4th). The pre-show begins at 11:30 and admission is $7.
