Robocop (Director's Cut) - 4K Blu-Ray [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]

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 on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray in a restored Director's Cut, packed with hours of bonus features.

Cyborg supercop Murphy (Peter Weller) is back to uphold the law and protect the innocent in crime-ridden near-future Detroit, but between the corrupting influence of his corporate sponsors on the police department, a psychotic drug lord (Tom Noonan) foisting his wares on the community, and the threat posed by a fearsome "replacement model," his return may be short-lived. Super sci-fi sequel also stars Nancy Allen, Belinda Bauer, Dan O Herlihy. Irvin Kershner directs; co-scripted by Frank Miller. 117 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English; featurettes; more. Two-disc set.

Co-written and directed by Robert Zemeckis, this heartwarming computer-animated holiday tale, based on Chris Van Allsburg's book, centers on a young boy whose belief in Santa Claus is beginning to waver.
