you can either use matrix multiplication (see resultmatrix2) or tensordot
(see resultmatrix3).
on my computer I have:
1.    15.6 sec with your code
2.    0.072 sec with resultmatrix2
3.    0.040 sec with tensordot (resultmatrix3) (-- which is a 400x speed)

--------------------------------------------

from numpy import *

items=25
sample=5
totalcols=8100
#matrixone=matrix(zeros((items,totalcols)))
#matrixtwo=matrix(zeros((items,totalcols)))

matrixone=matrix(random.rand(items, totalcols))
matrixtwo=matrix(random.rand(items, totalcols))

resultmatrix=matrix(zeros((items,sample)))
resultmatrix2=matrix(zeros((items,sample)))
resultmatrix3=matrix(zeros((items,sample)))

# your code
for i in range(items):
    for j in range(sample):
        tval=0.0
        for p in range(totalcols):
            tval +=matrixone[ j , p ] * matrixtwo[ i , p ]
        resultmatrix[ i, j ]=abs(tval)

# matrix multiplication
for i in range(items):
    for j in range(sample):
        resultmatrix2[ i, j ] = abs(matrixone[j,:] * matrixtwo[i,:].T)

# tensordot
resulmatrix3 = tensordot(matrixone[:sample,:], matrixtwo.T, axes=1).T
