PART MAN, PART MACHINE, ALL COP.RoboCop, from Orion Pictures, marked Flesh + Blood director Paul Verhoeven s Hollywood debut and instantly became an enduring sci-fi/action classic when it landed in theaters in the summer of 1987. Verhoeven s peerlessly exciting and kinetic visuals were matched by a sharp script, iconic cast and exceptional special effects by Rob Bottin (The Thing) and Phil Tippett (The Empire Strikes Back).The film takes place in Detroit in the not-too-distant future. Heroic cop Alex Murphy (Peter Weller, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai) is gunned down in the line of duty, only to be resurrected as RoboCop a cybernetic mix of spare human parts and Motor City steel, and the latest defense against crime designed by the all-powerful OCP Corporation. As RoboCop s memories of his former life as Murphy resurface, only his ex-partner (Nancy Allen, Dressed To Kill) stands beside him to fight against the vicious thugs responsible for his death, as well as a nefarious top-level OCP executive orchestrating the chaos from above.Unsurpassably thrilling, unexpectedly moving and unforgettably hilarious in equal measure, the future of law enforcement is back on Blu-ray in a restored Director s Cut, packed with hours of brand new bonus features.DIRECTOR S CUT SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTS4K restoration of the Director s Cut from the original camera negative by MGM, transferred in 2013 and approved by director Paul VerhoevenHigh Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentationOriginal lossless stereo and four-channel mixes plus DTS-HD MA 5.1 surround sound optionOptional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingArchive commentary by director Paul Verhoeven, executive producer Jon Davison and co-writer Ed NeumeierNew commentary by film historian Paul M.
