Here we have the sequel to Maniac Cop. Old officer Cordell is still kickin'. This time in a cool Mad Max Leather jacket, and a new sfx make up zombie face. He takes out the survivors of the first film. Then he teams up with a crazy hick who strangles strippers. Ultimately all Cordell wants is revenge against the bozo's who did him wrong.
We got Robert Davi as a hard ass detective complete with fedora and trench coat. Claudia Christian as a bumbling police shrink, and that annoying fat mayor dude from Godzilla '98 as the corrupt commissioner. The show is stolen however by Leo Rossi as the stripper killer. Long hair. Beard, pants up to his chest and all dorkiness. Bruce Campell and Laurene Landon from the first one show up for a bit to get killed.
We get to see some great cinematography of New York. Particularly times square. Before it became a mtv theme park lol.We also get the best police station shoot up I've ever scene. Better than the one in Terminator. And we get a prison revenge spree as well.
I managed to find this for $2.75 on vhs. It was going for as high as 30 bucks. so perhaps I got lucky. There is yet to be an American dvd release. Well hopefully that will change.
