Just watched this extremely cheesy and entertaining cop flick. Starring David Goss, Lincoln Kilpatrick, Julie Schoenhofer and James Mitchum.
I knew that i´ve seen Lincoln Kilpatrick recently in another movie and indeed he has a role in Prison (1988) which i watched sometime ago. Totally different kind of role here - he´s a real lady magnet in this one
Beautiful (topless) girls, guns, karate, oil wrestling, a car chase... what else do you need?
It goes without saying that i also like the cheap upbeat synthesizer score.
So, this is fun late night entertainment for the low-budget action movie fans, make sure that there´s a full six-pack and some snacks on-hand.

"Hollywood Cop" is one of my favourite 80s films.
I have been adding plot keywords to this film's entry on the IMDb. And of course, I wrote the Rewind review!
I agree with Secret Admirer, aTomiK. Outstanding write-up.
I'm pleased that you took delight in watching the film. Posted by Secret Admirer (Member # 3574) on :
Good work on the Rewind review, LoverswithCassie. Now I really have to see this movie. I look forward to the synth soundtrack too, I'm a sucker for that type of score.

Thanks guys!
Next we need to get the other Amir Shervan flick Samurai Cop (1989). Do you already have it LoverswithCassie?

Samurai Cop was released on region 1 dvd by Guilty Pleasures (a Media Blasters subdivision) in 2004. The disc features a hilarious audio commentary by drive-in movie-critic Joe Bob Briggs.

Independent US dvd label Cinema Epoch is bringing several Amir Shervan flicks to special edition dvd.
The first one will be a re-release of Samurai Cop, reportedly restored from the original 35mm negative.
Also forthcoming in the same collection are Killing American Style (1990) and Young Rebels (1992).
