Maniac Cop

A movie so bad, they literally threw out the lead halfway through!

Do not look directly into his mustache...unless you want to fall in love.
This time around, Jake and Derek cracked open 1988's Maniac Cop, which features Robert "The Big Chin" Z'Dar, Bruce "Not as Big a Chin, But Still Pretty Substantial" Campbell, Tom "The Inexplicable Sex Gargoyle" Atkins, Laurene "USA Network Late Night Regular" Landon, Richard "One Bad Mother--...Shut Your Mouth!" Roundtree, William "Have Another Cigarette" Smith, Sheree "Meaner Than She Looks, and She Looks Mean" North and Victoria "Visible Mustache" Catlin.

Lieutenant McCrae (Atkins) searches for a killer who is murdering people while dressed as a cop. When Jack Forrest's (Campbell) wife Ellen (Catlin) is found dead after she catches him in bed with a female cop, Mallory (Landon), Forrest becomes the primary suspect and must find out who the real killer is to clear his name. This leads to a confrontation with the real killer, Matt Cordell (Z'Dar), and his...girlfriend? Keeper? Potential victim? Anyway, her name is Sally, and she beats the piss out of McCrae with a cane, and Matt throws him out a window, leaving the movie rudderless.

When Chins Collide!
Can the suddenly very available Jack and his side piece Mallory find and stop Cordell before he kills again? Will anybody take notice of just how quickly Jack got over the murder of his wife? Did McCrae's mustache survive the fall? Will somebody please give Captain Ripley (Smith) a lozenge?

You'll have to tune in to find out!

Jake picked this one, and almost instantly regretted it. He continued to regret it throughout the entire viewing, and still does. He's terribly sorry. And he can't figure out why everybody things Mallory is so hot. It's kind of weird.

Derek was visibly distracted by Ellen's mustache in every scene she appeared in. He also regrets Jake choosing this movie. There are almost no redeeming qualities to it, and also an unnecessary inserted story line about the mayor, who is covering up what happened to Cordell.

So run--do not walk--as far away from this movie as possible, but listen to our latest episode!
