I really think the soundtrack makes it much better.


Uh... frick yeah... It's one of the best uses of a film score I can think of and has one of the best main theme hook ever.

Everything about it made upped the quality and impact of the movie.

The synthesizers were so 80s yet so "futuristic" and the classic string and horn score by Basil Poledouris emits so much power and badassness that any remake was going to fail miserably without it.

I think Conan is Poledouris' masterpiece (the movie is basically driven completely by the score because there's such little dialogue) but Robocop ain't far behind. The guy is on of the most underappreciated figures in Hollywood history. He was a genius.

I agree. He did the score for Red October and I loved that one a lot too.
