The team includes directors Chris Griffith and Eastwood Allen, and producer Gary Smart.The trio talks in-depth about how they transformed their passion project into a widely acclaimed series over several years.

Their tenacity to produce a series that deeply analyses every scene of the cult classic is ultimately what led to the final output.The documentary features over 100 interviews with cast, writers, producers, special effects designers and countless crew members of the Robocop universe to provide fans with an incredibly detailed and insightful look into this much-loved franchise.
