Episode 166 - Robocop-y

With all the craziness in the world, we have another two-headed episode for you...this time with Julie and Marty looking at some movies that are ALMOST Robocop. We watch the excellent "The Vindicator" from 1986 ( released BEFORE Robocop ) and "The Demolitionist" from 1995. We both agree that The Vindicator is excellent, from director Jean-Claude Lord, with a great suit-design from Stan Winston Studios. It does a lot with a small budget and is filled with great ideas. The Demolitionist, though, is saddled with Richard Grieco as the villain which keeps it from really hitting its target. We hope everyone out there is staying safe in their own caves while we deal this bastard of a virus. Let us know what you'd like us to look at next by writing to flickersfrom@yahoo.com or flickersfrom@gmail.com.  You can also reach us on FacebookInstagram and Twitter
