Product Description

Produced during the xenophobic late-80’s by the creators of the classic Toxic Avenger, Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD introduced a second classic superhero to the Tromaverse! Harry Griswold, a hapless NYC cop, undergoes a fantastic physical transformation to become the legendary Japanese hero, Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD! Armed with fatal sushi, heatseeking chopsticks and pyro projectile parasols, Sgt Kabukiman NYPD must learn how to use his Kabuki powers to save the Big Apple (and the Earth) from the evil one, all while filleting an array of baddies, from brutal pimps to Central Park rapists! Timely and satirical! Action packed and hilarious, with eye-popping special effects and hair raising fight sequences! This exclusive unrated edition of Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD comes fully stocked with heretofore unseen extras, such as the unreleased Sgt. Kabukiman cartoon and a director’s commentary by director Lloyd Kaufman!

4.0 out of 5 stars Another victory for Troma, November 3, 2000

By	Bob (Boston) - See all my reviews

Isn't it ironic that the home video market almost killed Troma and now it is responsible for Troma's huge resurgence? Lloyd Kaufman is not taking it for granted. He is loading up these dvds with extras, not just trailers and triva, but this one comes with the rare animated Kabukiman cartoon! It also has great commentary by the star Rick Gianisi, and if that's not enough may I remind you that the movie is a cult classic because it is a hilarious homage to camp classics like the Adam West Batman series. It can't hurt that one of the female police officers wears a thin white tank top and painted on spandex jogging shorts either!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Oh DEAR LORD! HEEE HEEE!, May 3, 1999

By	[e-mail] (Montreal) - See all my reviews

This movie is unquestionably one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. The clown scene literally caused me to experience my first heart attack.(well maybe not, but I was laughing for 7 minutes straight) The killer chopsticks were brilliant, and the ancient prophecy was...well...hehehehehhe

5.0 out of 5 stars Kabukiman is my hero, July 27, 2000

By	Matt A. Doore (Detroit, MI) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sgt Kabukiman Nypd (Unrated) (Sp) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is equal to Troma's War which was a masterpiece and awesome. Sgt. Kabukiman is easily one of the funniest movie's I've ever seen. With Lethal Chopsticks, and fatal sushi you can never go wrong.
