#15 - Bonus Features: RoboCop (1987)
“PART MAN, PART MACHINE, ALL COP.”
On this episode of Hype from Outer Heaven, join Caleb, Kyle, Prince and Brandon as they break-down, fanboy over, and discuss Paul Verhoeven’s 1987 Sci-Fi classic: RoboCop, the furniture *cough* future of law enforcement.
Initially canned by Paul Verhoeven, his wife convinced him to give the script another shot, which ended up becoming one of the most revered cyberpunk cult classics of all time with stellar performances from the likes of Peter Weller, Ronny Cox and Kurtwood Smith, portraying a dystopian view of Detroit, where crime is king and life is cheap (you wouldn’t buy that for a dollar).
To quote the back of the VHS box:
“Patrolman Murphy was the 32nd cop to die on
the streets of Detroit since Security Concepts Inc, took control of the police department.
It was the opportunity OCP had been waiting for…
Now out of a hidden laboratory emerges a deadly killing
machine with a body of reinforced titanium, a wiped memory and a programmed mind. They had taken what was left of Murphy, and turned a dead cop into: RoboCop, the future of law enforcement.”
Featuring a stellar cast, memorable one liners and a legendary score from the late, great Basil Poledouris; RoboCop has a legacy in cinema that is unmatched by many other franchises out there, acting as one of the founding blueprints for the cyberpunk genre as a whole.
Stay Frosty!
