Dirty Cop No Donut

As far as satires go, this take-off of "Cops" works extremely well...as long as you get past the opening scene including amateur actors and a newspaper machine. The catch: The officer being videotaped is crazier than the criminals he terrorizes.

Joel D. Wynkoop, of "Creep" and "Lost Faith" fame, gives an intense performance as Officer Friendly, or as the original title called his character, the "Low down dirty cop". Gore fanatics will appreciate Ritter's sense of humor...especially one scene including a sex offender and his most prized possession. There are other standout performances as well; the domestic dispute is quite believable and the cocaine dealer gives a great Clint Eastwood tough-guy routine (complete with a cigarette clinched between his teeth).

OVERALL: Tim Ritter's best since his first major production, "Truth or Dare? A Critical Madness". If you like horror, smut and "shockumentaries", then this is for you. See it for Wynkoop's grizzled performance and the closing credits. They're a hoot. 10 out of 10 - Great "no budget" fair.

One would figure watching Joel Wynkoop acting like a cop and being an ass to everyone he comes in contact with would be pretty entertaining, it is at first, but gets tedious and old really fast.

I will say it again. if you are hunting OOP's or rare items first visit sell outs or flea markets. This movie is only available on VHS even as it was once released on DVD but to find a copy you will have to search real hard. I did and found it, again, at a sell out of a video store. Dutch subs available. As we see in the beginning it was so called filmed in a documentary style. It is how some cops are doing their illegal work. Only at the end, after 80 minutes, you see that a director and actors were involved. But you could guess that after a few seconds into the movie. It is all filmed on ultra low budget, so no effects are used. Again, no gore is involved I can even say that just one scene contains blood but it has been blurred...It is funny to see what could happen when a cop goes nuts but 80 minutes is way too long. Because it's all talking and almost no action it bores after a while. There is also a bit of nudity in it but overall if you could catch a copy just watch it for what's it worth. Don't think you will see horror or brutality, it's just fun.

I have to review one of his other flicks,

Yes, the title says it all. In fact I won't review Bizarre Lust Of A Sexual Deviant but the so-called sequel to that flick, Chlororformed Too: They Made Her Sleep. Haven't seen BLOASD I can't say if it was bad but the sequel is utterly bad.

The sequel to BLOASD, Chlororformed Too:They Made Her Sleep explores a strange fetish through a thriller storyline. Three women discover that their boss is cheating on his taxes, and decide to blackmail him. They break into his house to search for evidence, little aware that the boss and his strange associate are waiting for them. One-by-one, the duo assaults each woman, using chloroform to knock her out and molest her, taking pictures the whole time. And that's it. The whole flick goes on and on of taking pictures of the three women. There isn't really anything to see, some do show a bit of a tittie but they were in fact not what we would call beauties. The taking of the pictures goes on and on and nothing else happens until the final 2 minutes were suddenly out of the blue a white haired beauty lays full frontal before the camera. A plot-hole because nothing is explained were she did came from.

Due being a turkey and just was available back then on VHS and is now OOP it is very difficult to find a copy. It do goes around in the era of ultra bad movie collectors because Tim Ritter was involved as an executive producer. Ritter is known for directing bad flicks himself maybe the most known Dirty Cop No Donut (1999).

Why I have put my review here is because this flick isn't anywhere to find on film databases. Not even on IMDb! There are more flicks out about Chloroforming girls, it's a weird kind of business and for some even a fetish. None of the actors are known for me although the acting was really bad...

There's just something about cop humor. Anything from The Andy Griffith Show to Super Troopers cracks me up every time, but, Mr. Joel D. Wynkoop, you, sir, are the man. For many years now, the antics of the Legendary Asbestos Felt had me convinced that Killing Spree was Tim Ritter's masterpiece, that is, until I recently purchased the new Special Edition DVD Of Dirty Cop No Donut. I love it. This is mean-spirited humor at its finest.

Gus Kimble is not a patient man, Gus Kimble isn't even a decent man. Somehow this guy ended up with a badge, and a gun, so people have to listen to him, right? Damn right!! Officer Gus Kimble, aka Officer Friendily is not in a good mood tonight (and probably never is), despite the fact that he's on a rather large amount of cocaine, after "busting" a drug dealer. On this night, you might want to stay out of trouble, because this guy can, and will abuse his power when ever and where ever the hell he wants, because he's the law!!

Tonight, Officer Friendily is bringing along a camera man, so he can, once and for all, show the world the dangers and difficulties of his chosen profession. Officer Friendily, above all, prides himself in being a good cop, which, obviously means he never, ever has to pay for food, or hookers, or any damn thing for that matter. Officer Friendily prefers to avoid all that boring paper work, but would rather dish out any necessary punishment the old fashion way, like roughing up drunk (female) drivers, tearing apart pawn shops for seemingly no reason, or even forcing a rapist to castrate himself at gunpoint. Whatever it takes to keep the streets safe, it's all for the greater good, right?

Wrong!! Gus Kimble is insane.

This hysterical Mock/Shockumentary is really just a spoof of Cops, which makes the fact that it was shot on video a positive, although, anything created by Tim Ritter is positively awesome, video, or not. Not everyone can just pick up a video camera, create Z-grade, and end up with a suspenseful story, an interesting script, and most of all, honest-to-God Quality. I'm convinced Tim Ritter is Florida's most talented independent filmmaker, and I hope he makes more movies. I've always found Wynkoop to be entertaining, but after witnessing his performance in Dirty Cop, I now automatically laugh whenever I see him in anything, if that's not a talented actor, then there's just no such thing. The things that come out of this guy's mouth!! You just wouldn't believe it. Wynkoop's persona as "controlling fat man on coked-out rampage" is priceless humor that must be seen to be believed. Wynkoop's endless rantings absolutely had me in tears. Joel really threw himself into this role, and it looks like he had a lot of fun doing it. Nevermind Ed Wood, you, sir, are the Joel D. Wynkoop of acting, which is far more historically significant. In fact, go ahead, Joel, have a donut, you deserve it. Yay for Twisted Illusions!! 10/10

Dirty Cop is a mockumentary that seems to be based on the TV show, COPS. The film stars the amazing Ed Wood of acting, Joel Wynkoop as Officer Friendly, a *cop* who's out trying to make the world a safer place in some pretty unconventional and psychotic ways.

The movie is pretty dark as Officer Friendly is a VERY DIRTY COP. In fact, he's more of a criminal then the criminals he's out on the streets harassing. When he's not busting 'perps' he's giving hell to his personal camera operator who he has tagging along to video tape his work. In my opinion, some of the film's funniest moments come while Officer Friendly and the camera guy (I think his name was Mr. Fanboy) are just driving around as the conversations are mighty hilarious!

There's some twists in this film which I won't mention as they'd spoil the film. What I will say is that this is a hilarious mockumentary and dark comedy. It's downright one of the funniest films I've seen and ranks as one of Florida based independent director, Tim Ritter's finest works. Joel Wynkoop (who I find to be a terrible actor in a GOOD way) carries the film with a lot of perverted and reckless enthusiasm. While Joel's not as 'Ed Wood' as I normally prefer, he's definitely still Joel Wynkoop and that makes for an entertaining viewing experience.

If you like COPS, if you like mockumentaries, if you're not PC, then DIRTY COP will provide an hour and a half of sheer delight. It's got everything an exploitation film needs (nudity, sex, drug abuse) and then some! Tim Ritter has written a script that allowed Joel to elevate above his normal 'Ed Wood of acting' reputation. In most cases I'd be disappointed but not in this case because DIRTY COP rocks the house!!

Highly Recommended!
