ROBOCOP

Join us for a rooftop celebration marking the 30th Anniversary of Paul Verhoeven's action classic.

"As tightly worked as a film can be, not a moment or line wasted." -Variety

Called by Ken Russell "the greatest science-fiction film since Metropolis," controversial director Paul Verhoeven's ROBOCOP is a special effects-laden cult phenomenon. The film features a resurrected and roboticized hero (Peter Weller) in a new, supercharged cyborg body, struggling to reclaim his memory and avenge his own death.

Written by Edward Neumeier and Michael Miner, this film is a grown-up superhero fantasy come to vivid, bloody life.
