Genre: Documentary

Cast: Nancy Allen, Bill Barry, Gary Combs

"The Making of RoboCop" plays like a great time capsule, taking you back to the days of broadcast television when a making-of TV special would really hype you up for a movie. Do they still make stuff like this nowadays (aside from Disney Channel synergy)? I haven't seen them around in years. I guess "HBO: First Look" has taken the ball and run with it since the '90s.

Anyhoo, like I said, this does a great hype job, and makes you want to see "RoboCop" again. Interviews with some of the cast - although no bad guys - scenes from the movie from alternate angles, and a peak at the overall process. It's short, sweet and gets the job done.

7/10
