Is it normal to be terrified of "Cain" from Robocop 2?

  • Completely normal. The whole film, not just Cain, is really dark and kind of nutty. It was Hob that scared me, though. That was one weird kid.

    • That's true... I kinda like Hob though heh. This and the original Robocop are still my favorite movies ever even if Cain does still to this day strike terror into my heart.

      • They're both great films and I really like them. My favourite character is Clarence Boddicker. He's played so well.

        Shame about RoboCop 3, though. :/

        • Oh god Robocop 3 does not exist in my mind lol. I think its hilarious to see Clarence Boddicker as the dad on "that 70's show" lol. It always looks like he's a second away from pulling out a gun and shooting everyone, lol.

          The upcoming remake looks like its also on the fast track to becoming another Robocop 3 =(

          • lol, nor mine either. I did see it and was so horrified, I do often forget it exists.

            I think the first two deserve more credit than they get. They're a lot cleverer than they look and they're absolutely dripping with satire. You've made me want to rewatch them both now. It's been a few years!

            • If its been a few years you probably did not see them in HD =) They both look awesome in 1080p =)
              Especially considering they were both made in the late 80's. The effects were very ahead of their time. They originally could not make Robocop 2 because it "was not technically possible to produce the effects required" so after a massive rewrite they filmed the version we now see. The original script is amazing though, especially the Cain and ED-209 fight that was supposed to take place within the ending rampage of Cain. I would have loved to see that!
