Not to worry, because "Kabukiman" lives up to it’s lurid box cover and title.
Every thousand years - when the stars are in conjunction, the tiger feasts on the nubile, the dragon jumps through the hoop, and the monkey rides the jaguar - the balanced scales of the universe tilt in favor of "The Evil One." Fortunately, the forces of good have a stalwart defender - Kabukiman. But the recipient of the spirit of Kabukiman is ruthlessly slaughtered before the millennial event, forcing the kabuki power to enter the body of clumsy New York detective, Sergeant Harry Griswald. Griswald, possessed by the spirit of Kabukiman, must learn to master his superpowers in order to fight crime and vanquish The Evil One. With the help of the beautiful Lotus and a box of tasty kung-fu worms, Griswald becomes the colorful crime-fighting clown known as Sgt. Kabukiman, NYPD!
