The 1980s saw an awesome rise in some truly great Science Fiction movie, including, The Terminator (1984), Alien (1986) and Alien Nation (1989)... As a matter of fact I think that a lot of what was done in the 1970s and 1980s, is what has inspired a lot of modern day filmmakers when they are making their Science Fiction movie!

There was another movie that I found the concept for, 'i,e. a Cop brought back to life as a cyborg', and that movie of course is, RoboCop (1987)!

You see this movie followed on the coat tails of, The Terminator, but where as in, 'The Terminator' the cyborg is evil, in this one he is good.

This movie tells the story of how after being utterly massacred during his first day in one of the most violent sections of Detroit, Officer Alex Murphy (Played by: Peter Weller), is turned in to a cyborg cop by the, 'good' people at Omni Corp...

At first everything seems to be going fine, he seems to be beating all expectations, and since his memory of his old life had been erased, he seems to be the embodiment of the perfect cop!

Of course that was until his partner tried to get his attention, from there, he starts remembering things, and as he slowly regains his memory and Officer Alex Murphy begins to replace his new life as, 'RoboCop', Alex Murphy, along with his former partner will uncover a plot that will not only change the world of his benefactors, but will help him get the justice he so richly deserves for his murder the first time!

Now if you haven't seen any of this legendary movie or anything that was spawned from this movie series, then you might want to give this movie a start, I think you might find yourself hooked!
