When rookie New York City policeman Harry Griswold ends up in the middle of a shootout while attending an evening of Kabuki theatre, his attempt to save the life of a critically injured performer yields unintended consequences. The dying man bestows his supernatural powers onto Harry, thus rendering him “The Chosen One.” Suddenly finding himself sprouting paper umbrellas and covered in face paint, the initially clumsy cop is transformed into a crime fighting superstar, with the help and training of Lotus, daughter of the deceased actor. But Harry’s new gifts also come with a fresh calling as he learns that he alone has the power to defeat the ancient “Evil One” and foil his diabolical plans for bloodthirsty world domination...From Lloyd Kaufman & Michael Herz, creators of THE TOXIC AVENGER, comes a different kind of superhero: SGT. KABUKIMAN, N.Y.P.D! 

Mixing high stakes action, spectacular car stunts, monstrous mutants, and Troma’s signature style of madcap gore and hilarious hijinx, this outrageous late-night TV and video store classic features a who's who of cult stars including Joe Fleishaker (TROMA'S WAR), Bill Weeden (CITIZEN TOXIE), and Rick Gianasi (ROBOT HOLOCAUST) as Harry Griswold. Vinegar Syndrome, in collaboration with Troma, is delighted to bring this living comic book back to theatres, newly restored in 4K to its uncensored original Director's Cut!
