Director Paul Verhoeven’s original RoboCop film featured one of Basil Poledouris’ most iconic scores. In 1993, he was recruited to bring his signature sound to RoboCop 3, which featured the titular character defending the citizens of Detroit against the devious Omni Consumer Products in an all-out war for the city.
