  1. Glad you liked it Jessica, Behind the Scenes Awesomeness has become a regular thing here, so expect more in the future, but I decided to do this one on Robocop since we're on
    "Cyberpunk Month"

  2. Love it. I hadnt seen a lot of those pics before. Thanks for collecting them. My wife had never seen "Robocop" up until a couple years ago. When the toxic waste scene happened she blurted out, "Oh hell, that's just gross!" I think that was the same mental reaction I had when I was a kid. That movie is still a lot of fun. Too bad they don't make em like this any more.

  3. Roman: Totally agree, they don't make them like that anymore and I miss movies like this so much. When watching a movie like this one, the contrast between what's action today and what was action during the 80's is so marked. You feel like todays action has been sanitized or something, back then action was messy and gory.

  4. You can't beat practical effects like those. The melting man ones are my favorite Francisco.

  5. Agree Maurice, I was so dissapointed when I learned that the new Robocop had none of this gory madness.
