Episode description
Everyone laughed at the title, and many laughed at the over-the-top violence, but 1987’s “RoboCop” turned into a sleeper hit that kickstarted a major franchise. We revisit Paul Verhoeven’s first and best big-budget sci-fi satire.
Antony Johnston with Erika Ensign, Steve Lutz and Moisés Chiullán
