New restoration! With Legendary director, Troma founder, and inaugural Coolidge After Midnite Award winner, Lloyd Kaufman joining us in-person! 

From Lloyd Kaufman & Michael Herz, creators of The Toxic Avenger, comes a different kind of superhero: Sgt. Kabukiman N.Y.P.D! When rookie New York City policeman Harry Griswold ends up in the middle of a shootout while attending an evening of kabuki theater, 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 formerly 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.
