Part 7/9:
Iconic Villains and Corporate Machinations
As Robocop slowly regains his memories, he confronts key antagonists like Clarence Boddicker and Dick Jones, who represent the sinister nature of corporate power. The setting in a fictional OCP headquarters, based on the actual Dallas City Hall, highlights the film’s critique of unregulated corporate influence over public service.
The film also cleverly references various media, with a nod to “Blade Runner” and comic books that inspired the creation of Robocop. Moreover, various practical effects were employed for action sequences, enhancing the film's gritty realism, which juxtaposes the underlying satirical elements of modern society.
