Trivia:

The idea for the film came when director Richard Holm, who then worked with marketing at SF (Swedish Filmindustry), received a Robocop-suit as promotion for _Robocop 2 (1990)_. He had just finished The Resurrection of Michael Myers Part 2 (1989) (V) and thought, "We gotta use this in some film." Ten years later, the film was finished.

Goofs:

Continuity: 'Mikael Beckman''s hairstyle varies radically between different scenes, due to the film being shot over an extended period of three years.

Funniest and most violent Swedish flick ever!

Definetly one of my favorites when it comes to splatter-filled humour, Richard Holm & co show that you don´t need a lot of money to create something wonderfully funny and violent. Spoofing a lot of films along the way, Mikael Beckman has to fight off the Clockwork Orange-gang, Frigga from "Thriller", the Alien-monster, a German terrorist from "Die Hard" and Robocop(superbly played by football expert Tony Johansson). And yes, it IS the genuine Brandon Lee in his last starring appearence.

A very hard film to come by, but if you get the chance, don´t miss it!
