Policía brutal 2

(Some Spoilers) Black comedy about a crazed policeman out to enforce the law by crashing a bachelor party at the Stonecipher Building and massacring almost all those in attendance.

At the local donut shop Offcer Vickers, Robert R. Shafer, overhears office workers Larry & Brian, Rod Sweitzer & Milles Dougal, talk about a bachelor party that's to be held that evening at their office with booze and grass and semi-nude women being brought in for adult entertainment.

Vickers a law & order nut and a bit into Satanic practices and sacrifices decides to stop these impending breaches of the law, drinking and having sex on the job, before it happens and to punish those criminals who break it and the only way he knows how is with brutal and deadly force. In the Stonecipher Building everyone is ready and expecting to have a good time with Mr. Stonecipher,John Paxton, their boss being told that their staying over to catch up with their backlog of paperwork. Before you know it the local strippers are let into the building by the night watchman Gus, Al Schuerman, and the drinking and partying starts as office worker Gary, Dave Bean, is given his last fling as a bachelor before he ends up getting hooked. It turns out instead to be Gary's last day alive on earth.

Bloody and in some ways hilarious, with a number of sharp and witty one liners by Officer Vickers, horror flick with Vickers knocking off almost everyone at the party. Vickers starts with Gus who he put a pencil through his brain then works his way up the building finishing off everyone else but Brian & Sharon, Barbara Niven, who survived his rampage. As you would expect Vickers, like almost every villain in these types of films, has superhuman strength and endurance. No matter what happens to him like being pushed down an elevator shaft hit in the midsection ,full force, with an ax and almost having his head burned off with a lighted spray-can he just keeps on going as strong as ever in his crusade to enforce the law that he was sworn to uphold.

The movie has a scene in it that copies the infamous March 1991 Rodney King police beating with Vickers being beaten and kicked by a bunch of outraged citizens, after trying to murder Sharon, with bats sticks and fists as the entire scene is being videotaped by an shocked onlooker,Adam Rifkin. Still Vickers still manages to survive to live and kill another day in another Psycho Cop movie.

After viewing the first Psycho Cop and found that a lot of fun, but completely stupid with awful acting and then finding out that there's a part 2, to be honest I wasn't all that thrilled and thought that it would be just a watered down version of the first one. But boy I was wrong, opinions seemed mixed on this one, but honestly I found this one a whole lot better.

Okay the production isn't any better nor is the effects and acting, but this does have a certain charm to it. This time the setting is in an office building instead of the old camping teenagers in the woods scenario, which was a bit odd for a movie called Psycho Cop, but this setting makes more sense in a way and Bobby Ray Schafer (the cop himself) seems more fun in this one and has more snappier dialogue. Plus the movie itself moves along at a decent pace and I wasn't bored for a minute and the strange turn it takes during the final act was a total surprise and very different and I didn't want this movie to end.

The plot this time we start off with 2 office guys in a coffee shop making plans for a bachelor party at their office building after hours, but they are overheard by officer Joe Vickers himself and he doesn't approve and starts following them and of course when he enters the building all hell breaks loose with several office workers, a security guard and a couple of strippers all lined up ready for his brand of unique justice.

The acting of course is pretty bad but I found the characters a lot more memorable than the first one and some were even likable. Barbara Niven as the obvious final girl was pretty likable and was strong willed and proved to be a decent match for the psycho cop. Mile Dougal was annoying as hell and his acting (if you can call it that) was just strange and all over the place. But the two strippers were a riot and of course Psycho cop himself steals the show.

All in all Psycho Cop Returns is not by any means a masterpiece, but it is a lot of fun and highly enjoyable and honestly never thought that in a million years that I'd enjoy this but I did and I wish that there was a Psycho Cop 3.

This film is magnificent! No it's not, it's crap!

It's both! see it! It's so boring and bad it'll blow you away!!

the name says it all Psycho cop, what kind of horror film do you think you are in for? yeah the movie for the most part is bad but its pretty damn funny at the same time. this is far from a classic but in its own way it is a classic. there are some really good one liners. i give psycho cop 2 5/10

I watched this immediately after the original Psycho Cop and, wow, what a difference a little self-awareness makes! The original incompetently plodded through horrible writing, acting (with the exception of Shafer)and pretty much anything else you could screw up in a movie. For the sequel, they watched the original, expanded on the strengths and actively ridiculed the weaknesses. I almost hate to call Shafer's performance "brilliant" but there it is. Another actor would play the role just for laughs, but Shafer, after delivering a punchline, keeps the character's cheerful psychotic complexity. Did I really write that?

This is just a fun, fun film that does a great job treading the line between the "THIS IS A COMEDY HORROR MOVIE ABOUT BAD COMEDY HORROR MOVIES" and just an enjoyable slasher film.
