One of you glorious psychos sent us the vanity project OMEGA COP. Ron Marchini and family decided to make a post-apocalyptic action movie starring Ron. Imagine if your weird uncle made a film starring himself, where he saves every woman he comes across, and you'll get an idea about the direction of this movie.

Post apocalyptic world with massive random solar flares and a swiss cheese ozone...better have all the cops drive open top Jeeps.
But of course, haha.
Rule number one: Try to look cool.
Rule number two: Use proper gear.
Rule number three: If proper gear doesn't look cool, ditch it and ignore rule number two.

That was so deep, it gave me a headache! 😵💫🥴😵

Watching a hammered Adam West trying to deliver lines in this made my day!
Adam West looked Adam Wasted 😆
@@MrDman21 ok, everybody, this guy won the internet for that one, time to go home, nobody's toppin' that one!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@megatronjenkins2473 ha ha 😄
West wasn't drunk. He was turning zombie like the doctor. It was acting.
Looked like he was about to give up.
In the mid-00s, Walmart had these bins filled with slim-cased $1 DVDs. That's where I got this, and it's sequel, Karate Cop. Along with a bunch of other terrible action and horror flicks.
Pity we never got Ninja Cop. Marcini was something else.
@@Awwscrewit I have no idea what, but he definitely was something else.
Just as long as I know who to blame, btw where do you live? Asking for a friend. 😏
I got some of those cheap-ass movies, too🤣🤣🤣except I call it Sprawl-Mart!
Atleast where I live they still have those bins filled with random movies alot of em being stuff like this classic gem lol
The Doctor is Stuart Whitman... an Oscar nominated actor... and now he's in this movie... the pain was real.
He died with 50 million dollars! He was one of the best investors in Hollywood.. there was no reason for him to even be in this thing!
There was no way they could pay him enough to do this if he didn’t want to…
I think they offered him some money and he thought it was funny..
Yes,Stuart Whitman,in his day,was a huge star in the movies,now it's come to this,no wonder he wants to kill himself.
Insane that he's in this.
Some get addicted to being on set and will be in just about anything if they're free.
Your reaction to that whole doctor segment with him looking like he wanted to end it had me crying from laughter right along with you 🤣
Such an amazing scene.
I refuse to believe there is even mutants in this apocalypse. That doctor just wanted out from old man's new harem hahah that's my head canon and I'm sticking with it!!
That what happens when you hire a pro. Stuart Whitman was Best Actor nominee in 1961 Academy Awards and got his star on Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1998. This man CAN deliver.
@@Rotionu He was the only actual good actor in this pile. I exclude Adam West, even though he could be good when he wanted to be, because it was so obvious he was hammered and didn't give AF and was doing this for a paycheck.
C'mon Jason, you know that ever since Mad Max came out, every post apocalyptic scenario in a movie has to look like Australia. It's an unofficial rule at this point.
It drives me nuts.
Best channel on youtube. Nothing beats watching you guys after a crappy day at work. Always outs a smile on my face, keep up the amazing work
Thanks!
And he’s a Steelers fan! I’m all in now
Th genuine excitement when you found out this is a vanity project is great lol.
Love me a good vanity project.
Adam West is also in 'Zombie Nightmare' which stars Thor (from 'Rock n Roll Nightmare'). Yes, the MST3K crew riffed 'Zombie Nightmare' long ago, but SBIG would have a blast with it as well. Another awesome episode. Keep up the great work!
Yes!! Excellent recommendation!
Well, it features Thor. Also has a short a ppearance of the little kid from Rock and Roll Nightmare as Thor as a six year old. He was the director's step-son. Godd Bad or Bad Bad did interviews with him when they reviewed both movies.
Brian sums it up perfectly, not a vanity project, a familiy project. MMM Marchini Mega Movies!! I'm hyped for the sequel.
Me too!
"This director knows how to shoot action movies..."
My new favorite Brian-ism, the ultimate seal of approval. Cuz, if yer Goochies cover yer Dupa, how can your vanity project possibly go wrong? And then there's the strong SBIG meme of jaded superfans slugging high-octane beer while judging the various levels of drunkenness in the super-films...my faith in humanity is endlessly renewed. Thanks, guys. This bud's for you.
Glad we could renew your faith in humanity.
Ron was my karate instructor in Stockton, Ca back in the 80s and 90s and Chris Ost (the half face paint guy) was one of the other senseis at Renbukai. All the students got to go to a private premier. The movie is awful, but it was so cool to know a martial arts "movie star" both Ron and Chris are legit competition chanpions tho 😁😁👍🤘🤘
Also, Ron made a bunch of these low budget films...this was his big budget one 😆
Brian is great at coming up with consistently logical questions about what is going on in these movies
Mr. Marchini was in a kung fu flick called DEATH MACHINES that you guys should DEFINITELY do!
Will do.
Holy crap, the bit with the guy and the 3 women is the most I have laughed in a long time. We've all been there, right lads?!?
The man is barely five feet tall. Your heightist comment hurts my feelings! 😭
Can't wait to see your review of 'Karate Cop' which is apparently Marchini's follow up project.....featuring David Carradine. "Martial law...at it's most lethal."
"They put the broken arm sound before he did the move?"
"That's fine!"
There's this channel called Cool Classics, and he made a pretty good mini documentary on Burt Ward. It's like 27 minutes or so, definitely worth watching or even just listening to.
Part of it tells about how he and Adam West would go around the country promoting Batman, staying in a bunch of hotels and sleeping with women they'd met along the way(Burt was 19 at the time).
One of those times, the woman Burt was with was actually married. He didn't know...but her husband knew about them and tracked them to the hotel. Burt ended up running out of the room butt naked. Adam helped him out of that situation and made sure he was more careful moving forward.
I say all that to say this...I absolutely believe Adam West was drunk as phuck many times during the filming of this movie 😂
+TheKingOfRuckus
Apparently, Burt Ward had a HUGE member, per Gilbert Gottfried. I've heard him mention this more than once. They had to try and wrap it down, so it wasn't so obvious wearing those little tights during the show. 😆
@@Fluoride_Jones The people on top at the network got him to take pills to shrink his johnson because some church group was offended. True story, same channel covered it😂.
He took them a few times and then stopped. Adam had his back, helped get the network to stop trying to get him to take those pills.
Sounds... interesting 🤣
@@JasonBrant I know far too many disturbing facts. If you're ever so inclined, you should check out episodes of Gilbert's podcast from before he passed away. It was called, "Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast." He would interview celebrities, but often celebrities from previous generations, like Dick Van Dyke.
He had also interviewed Adam West, and I believe they discussed Burt Ward's python. The best was his interview with Bruce Valanch. He helped write the "Star Wars Holiday Special," and explained that process. You can find it here on TH-cam. 👍
Adam West going to lunch with Carradine, he was Hammered in this 😂
The wig falling off killed me, another great episode, really look forward to these Jas 👍
Thanks, bud!
It's official. You need Special Police shirts for your merch store. Edit: Adam West was DEFINITELY hanging out with David Carradine in this movie.
If you guys are looking for more vanity project movies, I'd recommend Honorable Men. It's got all the hallmarks of a vanity project: The writer/producer/star is the same dude and every woman wants him despite him being a middle-aged man with a dad bod.
I don't think I have a copy of that one yet, but I'll add it to the watchlist.
@@JasonBrant Also if you are interested in another So Bad it's Good cop movie, then I'd also recommend Satan Killer. The funny thing is that the guy who made Satan Killer is the brother of the guy who made Honorable Men.
That's not acting. That is legit terror in his tactical turtlenecked face at 23:35 running from that explosion.😂 Amazing choice of flick, and I'm excited for the sequel that you guys hope to cover soon! 😃
I'm on a David Carradine bender now. Just re-watched Death Race 2000 and it's awesome as ever.
If David Carradine were alive today, he'd be on a bender too.
And I just realized that phrase could be construed in many different ways wrt mr Carradine.
The hand grenade🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@megatronjenkins2473 Machine Gun Joe!!
@@giorgiopalmas7934 That Stallone guy never did much of anything after that
"That wig is brutal" must be the best piece of commentary I've heard this whole year. I love this channel so much! :)
Erin saying “Gutchies cover your dupa..” is the cutest and strangely one of the sexiest things I have ever heard! Much love crew absolutely love your work!!!!! X
"2:30 of an old man chasing a kid"
Well, now we know where they got the ideas for Kenobi.
Haven't bothered watching that.
My weird uncle did make a terrible movie. It wasn't this... but God I wish it was. Oh well, back to therapy I go!
Do we have the same uncle?
Did it have something to do with 2 guys and a bottle?
@@HappyHarryHardon the jar?
Was there a dark basement involved?
Can I get my hands on this movie?
Adam West was an odd guy. Keep up the good work. Highly entertaining
Was he?
@@JasonBrant watch one of his Family Guy compilation videos on the 'Tube. Adam West was an odd guy🤣🤣🤣
When he dives in the water, it's someone with their pants rolled up, no shoes and no shirt...he stripped mid air ! Awesome.
OMG this review so much fun. Champagne & Bullets is my all time favorite, but this belongs to the top. Using wigs to reduce the cast. The MC really running, the harem cheering as he jumped into the water. Your commentary on the doc & chicks was hilarious. People should produce more bad movies.
Also collecting harem of nice girls on your journey is basically modern isekai.
To me there's no topping the Barbarians. It's the one I go back every so often to rewatch and it is as funny as the first time.
Well, that movie has John De Hart singing, there is no way Omega Cop could compete with that.
Riki-oh!
I really loved this movie too.
@@ErikS101 RiKi-Oh, Barbarians, Never Too Young To Die, Deadly Prey were I N S A N E.
But the semi-amateur production have that SBIG charm.
Apparently Ron Marchini used to be considered one of the best Karate fighters of all time…Chuck Norris said he was his most difficult opponent. Hard to believe he’s only 44 years old in this movie!
My weirdest (and easily toughest) relative is a veteran of four tours in Vietnam who has lived alone in a Colorado cabin for 40 years. I don't think he could come up with something as strange and entertaining as this. 😂
Wow. Do you ever visit with him?
@@unknownsoldier912 Every now and then, yeah. He used to work for the National Park Service.
I bet that man has seen some shtako. 4 tours in 'Nam and lives alone in a cabin in the mountains? No, that man scares me, and I'd rather hang out with Prime than meet him!
Sounds like an interesting dude.
9:52 that fella is using binoculars even though he's only standing like 15 feet away 😂😂
The Rifftrax to this is great
The weird expression gone to pot came about during the 16th century and was originally used to point to the lesser parts of meat being cut up to be cooked in a pot for soups and stews.
"I love this movie"
"You look like you're in pain"
It's a good hurt, without a doubt
I love how the solar flares affect everyone except the one special cop and 3 chicks. 🤣😂😂
The doctor stole the movie. The scene with him fingering his gun was hilarious.
"Listen to those hens cluck, or blow my brains out? Ahhh, shit, decisions, decisions...."
That bit killed me.
The look in Jason's eyes at minute 8:00 when they both say "the real weapons!!" is like "I have trained them well...."
Love the random bit of Polish there 😂
"Gacies cover your dupa" - the truth has been spoken.
I love this channel haha. Also ...I watched a movie called "ricochet" and...you've gotta watch it for this channel. It has John Lithgow and Denzel Washington in performances that seem to be trying to out-crazy each other.
This is an EPIC movie great choice sir. Shotguns, baseball caps, Jeeps with tape decks who could ask for more. That guy with the hair was at the Capital building Jan 6. Erin has the best shirt award you sir are on probation because of your offensive shirt🤣
What's offensive about his shirt?
@@megatronjenkins2473 Look Megatron I'm sorry the Lions treated you bad but it's a Steelers shirt and that in itself is offensive:)
Offensive? Have you watched the Steelers this year? They don't have an offense 🤣
@@JasonBrant 🤣
This was amazing!! High quality entertainment of a low budget movie!
I was hoping you guys would do this one and it did Not disappoint!! Can’t wait for the sequel!
Two thumbs way up 👍👍
Thanks! Looking forward to the sequel.
Best part of the 25 minute video is a Wasted Batman stumbling so hard to give his dialogue he's going to pass out mid take 😂
"Ramen Noodlehair" is the coolest name I've heard for a long time!
I need to find and watch some vanity films. The scene where the doctor was with the women had me in tears. Good God man the music! I had just as much fun watching this as you did making this one.
Jason @ 7:59: yes,go my son! with the slow nod of pride
"A wandering hole..."
So many obvious jokes, I won't even go there.
The want my blood??? What did I do?? I'm a subordinate peasant!! Please have mercy!
🤣🤣🤣
"How do you know it's a wig?" is the funniest comment I've heard on one of your videos.😂
10:06 notice how close to them he is with those binoculars 😂😂😂
3:35
Never thought I'd ask this:
"WHERE FOR ART THOU, 'SHIMMY SLIDE'?"
The ''drunk'' guy got hit by a solar flare , apperently when you get hit by a solar flare its equal to drinking 3.1 bottles of wodka.
The dude whose hair you can't look at is giving me serious Ultimate Warrior vibes. 😂
"They put the special in special police" LMAO
🤣
"He's Adam West, how dare you?" - you tell'em, man.
In the late 60's, Marchini was one of the top rated karate fighters in the U.S.
Really?
@@JasonBrant yep!
That was a great one, thanks! The doctor who damn near topped himself while the three damsels in distress were talking loudly, was epic
A quick word of warning, Jason, when you finally get round to watching Ryan's Babe I will unsubscribe if Erin doesn't watch it. That film changes people, and not for the better.
That's a weird thing to say, and not really a glowing recommendation. You want Erin to change, and not for the better?! What kind of damage are you rocking, Insecticon?
You aren't exactly selling me on it 🤣
The dude in white who puts the gun (Browning Hi Power) to his head when the girls are yapping is Stuart Whitman. The man was in a TON of movies and TV shows for decades. It is sad he was in this and seems that scene might have been closer to the heart for him in the moment.
21:09 LOL I'm sorry but that was a great call back!!
It's good that in the post-apocalypse, gasoline has an unlimited shelf life and never goes bad!
08:00 That approving nod should be in the background when they announce the Oscar winners
They couldn't afford to pay Adam West, but there was an open bar on set....
🤣
"Go to Hell, you make Karate Cop."
- Rich Evans
What?
@@JasonBrant a dig Rich Evans said in the RLM video on the sequel to this, Karate Cop.
Adam West has been on a beer run
🤣
Adam West hit the bat bottle hard!😂 Thanks for watching this so we don't have to.
You're telling me Ron Marchinis vanity can't be contained in just 1 movie, now thats VAIN.
I can't wait to experience all of it.
Love how Erin just starts vibing in the corner at the first bit of music 😂😂
Adam West knew what a trainwreck of a film this was going to be, so naturally he had to drink himself silly to get through it, like Bob Hoskins with the Mario film.
"The dude has a harem"! 😂
You should watch Zombie Nightmare from the 80s.It has Adam West,trying to impersonate Dirty Harry and,if memory serves,doing a tragically bad job of it,and John-Mikhel Thor,who you remember from Rock and Roll Nightmare(and I think he also directed).
Will do!
@@JasonBrant thanks!I hope you enjoy it.
"Baltimore."
Best comment ever. Perfect summation of the place and why I left around 20 years ago and will never go back.
I was looking up some of Manchini’s other movies, and you will be pleased to know that David Carradine is in karate cop
He ends up rippin’ 4-somes… that’s how awesome he is
i love you guys so much. and your regular schedule is a great feeling to know i can rely on your content
Thanks, Luke!
@@JasonBrant youve earned your following really well, im scrounging to keep past 1k
from 16:33 to 17:40 I haven't laughed so hard in a long time
Such a hilarious scene 🤣
The sequel makes THIS gem look like "The Lion In Winter" LOL YOU MUST WATCH IT!
Ron Marchini was the best Karate Martial Artist in the late 60s and early 70s and according to Chuck Nortis, he gave him his toughest fight back then.
I‘m surprised and amazed you guys haven’t watched his infamous Forgotten Warrior Trilogy yet. Part Two is far beyond so bad it’s good😂
Haven't even heard of those. Looking forward to them.
It’s just a shame that his acting is terrible 😂
This was fun and awesome. Thanks guys!
Anddd....Go Steelers👍
Havent heard the term "gutchies" since the eighties... Erin wins the internet.
Is that German or something? My grandparents used the same words
Glad I went to the dispensary before this. My god this was bizarre they released this.
🤣
Adam West was drunk because he was depressed he had to do this movie.
Hah, another one I've seen on TV in the 90s. I remember the "sun flare" and the "jump" at the end, and nothing in between. Probably for the better.
This was in TV? Really?
@@JasonBrant In Hungary after the fall of the iron curtain, in the mid 90s several independent cable channels popped up for a few years. They regularly aired these US Z movies at 9pm. I must have seen hundreds.But I can only remember a few by name. That's why it is great when one pops up on your channel, and recognition hits.
CYBORG
Also post apocalyptic with a martial arts guy!
"Him and 3 chicks" ... they should have used that as the movie title 🤣
I just noticed how much more enjoyable your show is by casting it to my TV instead of just watching it on my laptop.
Don't you have the TH-cam app on your TV?
That’s Stewart Whitman!!!
Shock Treatment, Night of the Lepus, Ruby, and… Guyana Cult of the Damned!
Oh ya, an Demonoid.
You know the movie is bad when you start complimenting the actors on how well they run. 🤣
8:00 when Blue Steel has officially been perfected.
🤣
I stay up late every Sunday night for these episodes
Thanks for staying up, Jale!
OMG......I'll be honest......you guys had me ROLLING at the part with the doctor with the gun, ready to take his life and you saying that the women are still just talking away etc....blah blah blah.........I was weak! LMAO! Thanks for the laugh. I was just waiting for the door to shut and to hear a gunshot go off. BTW..........Jaws the Revenge and Howard the Duck are classics. Ttyl!
If Neil Breen is the king of the vanity project, then Ron Marchini is heir to the throne. The complete lack of introspection or self-appraisal really elevate their films in the bad-good genre.
23:45 no one gonna talk about how he suddenly lost his shoes and shirt jumping into the water?
I've never seen Adam West wasted, it was worth it.
🤣
3 wigs + 6 extras = 17 henchmen or 11 solar mutants.
I got excited as soon as I saw Adam West! LOL
So did we!
Jason kills me when he puts his hand on his head and makes comments plus I was in tears when they commented on a drunk Adam West slumped on his chair.
IS HE DRUNK!? Adam West was six sheets to the wind on Memphis Wrestling as Legally Not Batman in an amazing bit with Jerry Lawler.
16:39 I thought the girls were driving him bonkers and he couldn't take it anymore 😂🤣😂😂
What the shit this movie, I knew you were in for a ride when they started playing that very upbeat song while driving through a gray wasteland.
