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 in a definitive Blu-rayTM presentation packed with hours of brand new bonus features and exclusive collectable packaging.

Robocop - Limited Edition Steelbook (Remastered)
I bought one copy of this film. I'm a big fan of the movie. Worthy edition of the film. Epoch-making movie was a long time ago, and now everything degrading quality re-created. Internal and external properties is overwhelming. Feel free to stand there next to the modern sci-fi films on the shelf. Congratulations to access this release. Compulsory purchase!
