On Episode 104 of The Film ‘89 Podcast, Skye interviews Gary Smart, Christopher Griffiths and Eastwood Allen, respectively the producer, director and co-director/editor of RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop, the epic, four and a half hour making-of documentary that’s been seven years in the making. Gary first appeared on Film ‘89 way back in September 2018 when the documentary was still in the early stages of production but it’s finally complete and available to stream in the US with U.K. streaming to come next month as well as a features packed Blu-Ray to follow. Already the No.1 Documentary Blu-Ray on Amazon in the US and U.K., RoboDoc is without doubt the definitive document of the making-of and lasting legacy of director Paul Verhoeven’s ultra-violent, satire filled 1987 masterpiece, and just happens to be Skye’s all-time favourite film.
