THE HAUNTED COP SHOP (1987)
Time for some more antics in the next part of this collection. Much like the first instalment in the box set, Scared Stiff, this is a story that feels like half a dozen ideas thrown together. Surely with the boiler-plate structure of a buddy cop film this will be more cohesive? In essence it’s just about two bumbling officers trying to prove the existence of the supernatural; to avoid angering their superiors after a man in custody vanishes. The main plot about the police station being built on an old nightclub used by Japanese soldiers decades earlier is also a strong hook. However, not everything here is as straightforward as it sounds.
