Storyline
Detroit - in the future - is crime ridden, and run by a massive company. The company have developed a huge crime fighting robot, which unfortunately develops a rather dangerous glitch. The company sees a way to get back in favour with the public when a cop called Alex Murphy is killed by a street gang. Murphys body is reconstructed within a steel shell and named Robocop. The Robocop is very successful against criminals, and becomes a target of supervillian Boddicker. Written by Colin Tinto <cst@imdb.com>

Trivia
On the DVD Ray Wise explains that he and Kurtwood Smith ended up being too close to an explosion which caused pieces of glass to be embedded into Ray's face. He received an additional stunt pay for this mishap as per the studio. Ray then jokingly states that he devised ways were he would be as close as to the explosions as possible to gain extra money.

Continuity: After the cops go on strike and Boddicker's gang is trying out their new weapons when they destroy the nearby shops and vehicles, it is clearly night out, and then Boddicker says Robocop is in the steel mill, and within a few seconds they are hunting for Robo in daylight, and it is even sunny and overcast between shots.
