Review

  • What really elavates Pyscho Cop Returns (aka Psycho Cop 2) is the talent of Adam Rifkin (going under his Rif Coogan alias here) Rifkin completely acts like the first movie never existed which is good considering how bad the original really is, he gives you stuff you want in a movie like this good gore, boobs, sex, and an overall better performance from our killer Bobby Ray Shafer, all things that were missing in the first film. Shafer himself is really good here and it's nice to see his acting and one liners have improved drastically this time around. Penthouse pet and b movie goddess Julie Strain is also along for the ride. It's also nice to see Vingar Syndrome give this thing a great blu ray release, with better picture quality and of course the full uncut version of the film which for years was only available on a super rare VHS tape. Overall, Psycho Cop Returns still isn't as good as its Maniac Cop counterpart, but it's still a fun enjoyable ride in it's own right.
