@@runner3033 funniest part is most toxic waste, like radioactive for example, is actually completely safe. The only thing I can imagine doing something like this would be a powerful acid, but I don't think you can store that in sheet metal lol
@@cloroxbleachtm9638 we store radioactive waste quite well actually for the most part, and you can stand next to one of the containers without getting any sickness. Most of the radioactive waste gets melted down into special glass and ceramic, and then encased in concrete, where it remains pretty much inactive. There is dangerous radioactive waste no doubt, but it makes up for such a small percentage of it all
I can imagine an inspector from the EPA or similar agency. "Ahh... toxic waste. Well, correct label so all is well, let's move on to the nuclear waste..."
What's really disturbing is that even though he had mutated, he was continuing to melt down. That's why he broke apart so easily when the car hit him. He was painfully slowly turning into soup.

Oh man I remember watching The Thing a little too early a kid and having the jeebies for days, checking my closet and sleeping with the lights on. Practical effects are so fucking unsettling. :))
I remember seeing this scene when I was like 4 or 5 and it had just came out on VHS. It stuck with me more than any other death scene I've watched. Still to this day disturbs me lol
His death is horrific, but can we all appreciate how casually Murphy strolls away? Doesn't even give a one liner, just looks and thinks "Yeah, that guy's done."
He sort of jump-walks away, initially at some speed, but then quickly returns to his usual, slow stroll. In fact, it's very "robotic" - he moves at the perfect speed and his motion is perfectly timed until he is just about safe, then reverts to normal mode.
It's a film filled with brutal scenes. Murphy's execution is still giving me chills whenever I remember it. Amazingly enough, these scenes have stood the test of time and don’t look cheap.
That's still one of the most disturbing shooting executions in a film to date. It's just horrifying, and this is coming from someone who watched Saving Private Ryan multiple times.
I saw this scene as a child, and I couldn't get over it, it traumatized me... Until now. 20 years later... Now I can finally see it as it is: very good special effects and not a recurring nightmare.
So happy to find a community of grown-ups who were traumatized, just like I was, by this movie at around age 7…I saw this movie with my dad as kid in theaters when it came out. I consider myself a good driver as a result - always pay attention not to crash into a vat of toxic waste and never hit any rando melting from very recent toxic exposure. Also, between this movie and the Terminator, I (we) have a very healthy distrust of sentient robots.
It was a non stop rotation of Robocop, Terminator, and Batman in my house growing up..... Watching these when I was like 4 or 5 yrs old. Love my Mom for allowing me to watch these crazy violent movies as barely older than a toddler 🤣
I'm also here because i was also traumatized by that scene since i was exactly 7 when the movie came out and i was tricked into watching it by some older cousins 🤪🙃
I absolutely agree. In the past, there were less censorship as today. I saw it as a kid in my early teens. They turned him to mush slowly while torturing him.
Yeah. Hearing Leonard drop an S-bomb while talking to Penny is really up there with watching Murphy get sadistically blown apart at the hands of those psychopaths.
I watched Robocop when I was 8 years old the film gave me lots of sleepless nights as a kid. But now as a adult I consider it a masterpiece and ahead of it's time.
Jason Haskin I don't think he had enough time to process what he just saw there Because it all happened in a split second for him. To his knowledge, it could've been *anything.*
As a kid I remember trying to reconcile the difference in effect of Toxic Waste on this guy vs. what happened to Jack Napier in Batman 1989 when he fell into a vat of toxic waste. I totally expected Jack to come out of that vat looking like a half melted monster but instead he just had a skin tone problem.
***** Hey man, my DVD captions say MAN, so I don't know what your talking about! lol Plus if you look at his mouth, he never says "Eh"-mil. Clearly, he says MAN.
Fun Fact: The studio wanted to cut this out, thinking audiences would find it too graphic, so Paul Verhoeven had an extra question added for test audiences, asking "What did you think of the toxic waste melting man?" And they all loved it. He took the answers back to the executives and they let him keep it in.
King Krunchy1911 yes, actually. Good cgi still doesn't match good practical effects. You can still tell every time Logan's claws come out that it isn't real, and while I love all the movies you have listed, that does not change the fact that practical effects are surperior.
Here's what I like about this scene. The man isn't mutating, he's dissolving, and quite literally melting away. If you look closely at his hands, you can see the bones from his fingers. Edit: the reason i thought this was necessary to note, is usually in popular media, Toxic Chemicals = Violent Mutation is a common trend. in this case, i just thought it was nice attention to detail, and rather more gruesome.
Damn, great eye to attention to detail! I missed that on the first watch but glad to know there are others out there with a keen eye for this stuff! It’s like a hidden scene tucked away only to be found by a special few.
@@steverogers7601 No girl, it's called having a brain and not getting use to hollywood tropes that often lack logic. Lol XD. Also you just said you missed it but then said ''others.'' Those are the kind of details writers usually miss. Not pointed or angry, just found this funny.
I just watched RoboCop for the first time yesterday. I talked to my parents about this experience and then this scene came up. Neither of them had any idea what I was talking about. They had suppressed the memory of this scene for like 35 years but remembered everything else I talked about pretty clearly.
The funny part is the main reason Leon is scared was probably he didn't know the acid did that to Emil, he probably thought Robocop did GOD KNOWS WHAT to him.
No way, this is the most gruesome scene but the unrated version of Murphy's murder is definitely more brutal. BTW RoboCop was initially rated X because it took the violence too far
This scene actually really disturbed me. I've seen lots of Horror and slasher movies, but this scene effected me more. I don't know why. If this scene was intended to be funny, I didn't see it that way.
Yeah, dark comedy can go either way for anyone. For me, I find it a little humorous since it's over the top and ridiculous but, I can understand the reason of why it wouldn't be the case for others like yourself. But yeah, this scene alone stands out.
This scene really is disturbing. Guy basically has his flesh melted off the bone. Him crawling out of the waste is the worse part. Most horrors films don't even come close to this scene.
For me it was the breathing. The guy who played him, amazing actor, I loved how he played that character to be such a bastard that a very slow and excruciatingly painful death only slightly made him sympathetic. Also, I did a lecture on post humanism in gender studies in film, I used Robocop as an example of when technology takes away what makes a man a man. I informed the students to take note of how the scene was set and to take particular note of one of the fictional commercials in the beginning, an advert for artificial organs.

I will never forget this movie coming to the big screen. I was like 7 years old and the age restriction was no 2-21 at the time. My dysfunctional parents insisted with the cinema owner to let me sit right at the back row near the exit. The movie was the most awesome and the most terrifying thing I lived through for many years after. To this day I will remember watching it. And I thank my folks for it. I am now 42 years old and the memory lives on. What a classic it is
This was the first ever gore scene I'd ever seen in a movie. It shook me to my core as a kid I never knew a human could just go splat like that before. I was terrified of my own body for a minute lmao
@@davidhutchinson7888 some movies are really brutal, but most just show the penetration off screen. It's awesome how you see his head roll off the car.
I think the most unbelievable part of all of this is that anyone irresponsible enough to put a vat of toxic waste in an alleyway would ever clearly label it as toxic waste. That container would just have a hazard sticker slapped on it, and a motion sensor that automatically dials a lawyer the moment someone smashes into it...
Saw this scene when I was 6 years old. My big brother was babysitting me. I was begging my brother to let me in his room to watch this movie, but he kept saying it would be too scary for me and he didn't want to get in trouble for showing me this movie. Finally I convinced him that I just wanted to play gameboy in his room and I wouldn't even look at the TV screen. Right when he let me come in, this scene happened. The image of that guy's face melting messed me up. Bad. When mom and dad got home I was crying hysterically. They asked what was wrong. I told them my brother forced me to watch RoboCop in his room. LOL
Omar Cruz We always got along. He was, and still is, an awesome big brother. That was one of the few times he was legitimately annoyed with me though haha
I watched this as a 9 year old at the house of my American friend. His dad was stationed in Germany at the Coleman barracks. I always went over to their house to watch movies and eat food my parents would've never agreed to. After this movie we played robocop for weeks, and once when I slept at their house I used a fake (but real metal) cartridge belt as a pillow, after a wholesome dinner of baloney sandwiches, ruffles chips, and ice cream. My childhood was off the scale awesome. Thanks for the great memories Timmy
@@salzheeringer3408, me too! Yeah, I used to be so nostalgic for those times and I used to really miss them times. Now, I have so many exciting things going on though! I'm kinda of a local celebrity, or, at least a celebrity to some people in a organization. Anyway, something very very special is going on and I'm just loving it now! It's truly become a pure pleasure to be alive now, full of mystery, ACTION, agents (or people that wish they were agents), people at distances trying to talk louder than usual hoping I'll hear what doesn't matter to me anyway, people that lie about birds at bus stops and finding dirty pictures in a safe of a recently deceased relative, shit, we even have people that have faked their own deaths and faked having a opioid overdose! Let me tally up the deaths. Mike Dazet: died from a self inflicted gunshot wound to the chest because he supposedly owed a old Italian (his father-in-law) some money. Darren M. Breecher Jr: died during the 14 day period I was in a mental hospital of mixing alcohol and Valium. He was found face down next to his sofa even though mixing those two drugs would be something that would kill you while you slept or was incapacitated first. I guess he was sleep walking when he "died". Not to mention he died in the 14 day span of a lifetime of days, which prevented me from attending his "service". Brittany Hymel: died from blood poisoning that made it to her fragile heart with a year old pig valve that was just installed. The only problem with this is she never did really have that surgery. Because she flashed her open heart surgery "scar" from the previous year to someone I got a really good look at it. Later on, once I became suspicious of all these fake deaths I looked up pictures of other open heart surgery scars and what she had looked nothing like any I saw. Roland Von Kurnatowski: another gunshot victim with the wound being to the chest. Only this time this guy managed to do it while going up a ladder and with a rifle. Blake Ledger: this dude "died" of a overdose in the bathroom of a Burger King. Like that's the only and best place to shoot up. Plus, this dude hated Burger King with a passion. I'm going to need my $2,000 back that I contributed to his "service". Dottie Marshall: devout Catholic."Died" from complications of the Coronavirus. She was cremated even though that is against Catholic protocol, which she was so devoted to that she would not have went against the church. Plus her son described her final minutes of her life to me and I found it to be half hearted. It seemed like he was describing cake baking instructions, he was just a little bit too nonchalant. There's a few other people and I just don't really feel like adding them. So, it's just really fun to bounce all these things around. It's funny to go from theory to theory and stay in flux. It's funny to see cars do stupid maneuvers and put their hazard lights on and blow their little alarm horns like it's some kind of a blow (pun intended) to me. No, I love it all!! It makes me laugh and makes me feel great knowing that ultimately, I'm the one making them do it. So, there's just so much to have fun with. So much sarcasm I can shoot back to the sender. I can take it easy really....... Because I totally believe certain thresholds have been ... violated.... to say the least. I'm just excited about all of this, I never thought this many people would be interested in being a part of my life, they have made me feel very special and I'm glad to know that they think about me. They have given new meaning to my life and I want to thank them all!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
All right here's a comment now and just for being funny why did Quasimodo cross the road so he can get to the other side to ring the bell whoops my bad
The makeup design is really good! How the skin is hanging from claw like fingernails and bones. The lips melting down. And the eye injury and blood from the ear. Great stuff! The actor played the part so good too! We were in horror territory…
What's scary about this scene is that you barely see people die like this in movies. Like the guy crashing into the toxic waste. At first, this started making me become afraid of factories.
@@Watcher4111 @Pioneer Nut What are you talking about? "Logan" and "The Suicide Squad", for example, are hard R's, despite being sequels to PG-13 rated movies.

I never saw this as a kid, but I am 18 and I find this genuinely disturbing and I can only imagine how traumatizing this must have been to watch as a child.
This scene scared the SHIT out of me as a kid, my brothers would then tease me by limping at me like he was and saying "hellllpppp...mmeeee" terrified me, apart from this scene I loved robocop
1:07: Leon’s screaming in fear is funny! Haha! But I don’t blame him. I’d probably scream like that too, if some melting dude came towards me like that.
@@xtcyrafaDw though he got mutant powers before getting splattered so the bits and pieces of his body slowly came back together and allowed him to make a full recovery 🐔 👍
I remember seeing this scene when I was a kid, and feeling geniune sympathy for this character. Like I knew he was bad but it legit terrified me, and made me feel terrible seeing him like that. I legit wanted to search for medical help for him hahaha. My lil brain back then was interesting. (Edit: Oh What the hell man. I didn't mean for this to blow up like this! Thanks for the likes regardless! Caught me off guard I didn't even remember posting this hahah)
What a masterpiece. The 80's are rich with outstanding movies like Terminator, Alien, Predator and even Robocop. All the sequels you can throw in the garbade can. My two cents.
Predator and Predator 2 on TNT in the afternoons scarred the daylights out of me especially where Billy fights it on the log and the meat locker in #2. Definitely had nightmares after that.
I saw this movie way too young. This entire movie, and this scene in particular, broke my 8 year old brain. I didn't sleep that night. It's one of my top 5 movies now.
I had a similar experience with Aliens and the chest bursting. I wasn't watching the movie in its entirety, just peaking round the corner when I was supposed to be in bed while my parents watched it. Scarred me for a while.

It's a film filled with brutal scenes. Murphy's execution is still giving me chills whenever I remember it. Amazingly enough, these scenes have stood the test of time and don’t look cheap.
Even now, I keep asking myself “WHY ARE THEY DOING THAT TO HIM!?” 😂
That's still one of the most disturbing shooting executions in a film to date. It's just horrifying, and this is coming from someone who watched Saving Private Ryan multiple times.
As a kid seeing his hand shot off was pretty brutal. I couldn't understand how he took all those shots and didn't fall to the ground.
Yes I find that scene really hard to watch.i just fast forward 🙂
So comforting to know I'm not the only kid that saw this and was horrified, 80s parents let us watch anything lol
These shows really made me think toxic waste was going to be a much more common thing I’d find in my adult life
It was the Robocop equivalent of quicksand.
I love how when Emil explodes like a chum-filled balloon his still-intact head slides along the car's hood and up the windshield.
😂
It happens in real life car accidents
@@KueztionX That's horrifying.
And splatters like an overripe honeydew
In terms of creating the scene, the film crew didn't expect the dummy's head to fly off against the windshield.

It was also funny when Nash was away from Emile, then looked back and gave a "Nyaaah!!" that sounded like something out of Scooby Doo.
Imagine if he said "don't touch me man i don't have any change"
I love how he just grabs him and goes "hhuuhHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

So happy to find a community of grown-ups who were traumatized, just like I was, by this movie at around age 7…I saw this movie with my dad as kid in theaters when it came out. I consider myself a good driver as a result - always pay attention not to crash into a vat of toxic waste and never hit any rando melting from very recent toxic exposure.
Also, between this movie and the Terminator, I (we) have a very healthy distrust of sentient robots.
It was a non stop rotation of Robocop, Terminator, and Batman in my house growing up..... Watching these when I was like 4 or 5 yrs old. Love my Mom for allowing me to watch these crazy violent movies as barely older than a toddler 🤣

I absolutely agree. In the past, there were less censorship as today. I saw it as a kid in my early teens. They turned him to mush slowly while torturing him.
"Does it hurt, does it hurt...?"

As a kid I remember trying to reconcile the difference in effect of Toxic Waste on this guy vs. what happened to Jack Napier in Batman 1989 when he fell into a vat of toxic waste. I totally expected Jack to come out of that vat looking like a half melted monster but instead he just had a skin tone problem.
Well he went to a cheap underground plastic surgeon afterwards.
Ha me too. Being an 80s kid was awesome, in some ways anyhow.....
And I thought taking a bath in toxic waste gave you superpowers...

Sci-fi action movie makers do of course.

***** Well, it was the 1980's.. No one gave a damn as long as the coke kept flowing.
Exxon Mobil. British Petroleum.
Fun Fact:
The studio wanted to cut this out, thinking audiences would find it too graphic, so Paul Verhoeven had an extra question added for test audiences, asking "What did you think of the toxic waste melting man?" And they all loved it. He took the answers back to the executives and they let him keep it in.
Screw the execs. The hell is they’re purpose anyways
Another example of how much practical effects owns cgi
CGI ruined Hollywood!
Practical effects will always win
How on earth has CGI ruined Hollywood?
Josh Wilson because you can easily tell when cgi is being used. It looks so fake it's painful.
King Krunchy1911 yes, actually. Good cgi still doesn't match good practical effects. You can still tell every time Logan's claws come out that it isn't real, and while I love all the movies you have listed, that does not change the fact that practical effects are surperior.
I like how the big container just says, "Toxic waste" haaa.
Laura York underneath it says “do not crash van into”
@@NegotiableHemingway the good old Toxic waste Acid trope
Not gonna lie, this was probably the filmmakers making fun of the Toxic Avenger.
What a horrible thing to keep around though. Imagine children coming around there playing and one of them falling into it?
It's probably store brand. Lol.
Here's what I like about this scene. The man isn't mutating, he's dissolving, and quite literally melting away. If you look closely at his hands, you can see the bones from his fingers.
Edit:
the reason i thought this was necessary to note, is usually in popular media, Toxic Chemicals = Violent Mutation is a common trend. in this case, i just thought it was nice attention to detail, and rather more gruesome.
Which also explains why he literally splatters into slushie when hit by the car
@@georgemccartney8906 wow that's some toxic stuff 😢
Damn, great eye to attention to detail! I missed that on the first watch but glad to know there are others out there with a keen eye for this stuff! It’s like a hidden scene tucked away only to be found by a special few.
He's a bad guy but put him out of his misery
@@steverogers7601 No girl, it's called having a brain and not getting use to hollywood tropes that often lack logic. Lol XD. Also you just said you missed it but then said ''others.'' Those are the kind of details writers usually miss. Not pointed or angry, just found this funny.
I just watched RoboCop for the first time yesterday. I talked to my parents about this experience and then this scene came up. Neither of them had any idea what I was talking about. They had suppressed the memory of this scene for like 35 years but remembered everything else I talked about pretty clearly.
This particular scene here was cut from some movie versions of robocop. I had that film too and never knew of this scene right here
The funny part is the main reason Leon is scared was probably he didn't know the acid did that to Emil, he probably thought Robocop did GOD KNOWS WHAT to him.
I like to imagine this as an alternate take on how Leland Palmer went insane. Got jumped by the "Incredible melting man" if you catch my drift.
"Don't touch me, man!"
Jesse Slayton or that he was just another trailer trash meth junkie
*DONT TOUCH ME MAAAAAAN*

How and why
*Gurgling* ..hEEelLppP MMmeeeeEE..
The sound it makes when he gets hit too!
Legend has it he still shits his pants when you say help me and grab him suddenly
In the edited version, Emil just grabs Leon while screaming in pain and Leon runs away because he doesn’t recognize Emil.
No way, this is the most gruesome scene but the unrated version of Murphy's murder is definitely more brutal. BTW RoboCop was initially rated X because it took the violence too far
Scarface was another 80s movie originally getting an X rating, for taking violence too far.
I...didn’t know that there was a higher rating than R or M
It’s called nc-17
they picked him apart with a shotgun like they were pulling legs off a bug o.0
NC17 didn’t come around until the 90’s. Before that, adult-only films received the X rating.
0:30 this is amazing. You can see his thumb, the skin, off to the side whioe the bone is still in the right place
This scene actually really disturbed me. I've seen lots of Horror and slasher movies, but this scene effected me more. I don't know why.
If this scene was intended to be funny, I didn't see it that way.
Yeah, dark comedy can go either way for anyone. For me, I find it a little humorous since it's over the top and ridiculous but, I can understand the reason of why it wouldn't be the case for others like yourself. But yeah, this scene alone stands out.
This scene really is disturbing. Guy basically has his flesh melted off the bone. Him crawling out of the waste is the worse part. Most horrors films don't even come close to this scene.
For me it was the breathing. The guy who played him, amazing actor, I loved how he played that character to be such a bastard that a very slow and excruciatingly painful death only slightly made him sympathetic.
Also, I did a lecture on post humanism in gender studies in film, I used Robocop as an example of when technology takes away what makes a man a man. I informed the students to take note of how the scene was set and to take particular note of one of the fictional commercials in the beginning, an advert for artificial organs.

I will never forget this movie coming to the big screen. I was like 7 years old and the age restriction was no 2-21 at the time. My dysfunctional parents insisted with the cinema owner to let me sit right at the back row near the exit. The movie was the most awesome and the most terrifying thing I lived through for many years after. To this day I will remember watching it. And I thank my folks for it. I am now 42 years old and the memory lives on. What a classic it is

Right when he let me come in, this scene happened.

@@salzheeringer3408, me too! Yeah, I used to be so nostalgic for those times and I used to really miss them times. Now, I have so many exciting things going on though! I'm kinda of a local celebrity, or, at least a celebrity to some people in a organization. Anyway, something very very special is going on and I'm just loving it now! It's truly become a pure pleasure to be alive now, full of mystery, ACTION, agents (or people that wish they were agents), people at distances trying to talk louder than usual hoping I'll hear what doesn't matter to me anyway, people that lie about birds at bus stops and finding dirty pictures in a safe of a recently deceased relative, shit, we even have people that have faked their own deaths and faked having a opioid overdose! Let me tally up the deaths.
Mike Dazet: died from a self inflicted gunshot wound to the chest because he supposedly owed a old Italian (his father-in-law) some money.
Darren M. Breecher Jr: died during the 14 day period I was in a mental hospital of mixing alcohol and Valium. He was found face down next to his sofa even though mixing those two drugs would be something that would kill you while you slept or was incapacitated first. I guess he was sleep walking when he "died". Not to mention he died in the 14 day span of a lifetime of days, which prevented me from attending his "service".
Brittany Hymel: died from blood poisoning that made it to her fragile heart with a year old pig valve that was just installed. The only problem with this is she never did really have that surgery. Because she flashed her open heart surgery "scar" from the previous year to someone I got a really good look at it. Later on, once I became suspicious of all these fake deaths I looked up pictures of other open heart surgery scars and what she had looked nothing like any I saw.
Roland Von Kurnatowski: another gunshot victim with the wound being to the chest. Only this time this guy managed to do it while going up a ladder and with a rifle.
Blake Ledger: this dude "died" of a overdose in the bathroom of a Burger King. Like that's the only and best place to shoot up. Plus, this dude hated Burger King with a passion. I'm going to need my $2,000 back that I contributed to his "service".
Dottie Marshall: devout Catholic."Died" from complications of the Coronavirus. She was cremated even though that is against Catholic protocol, which she was so devoted to that she would not have went against the church. Plus her son described her final minutes of her life to me and I found it to be half hearted. It seemed like he was describing cake baking instructions, he was just a little bit too nonchalant.
There's a few other people and I just don't really feel like adding them.
So, it's just really fun to bounce all these things around. It's funny to go from theory to theory and stay in flux. It's funny to see cars do stupid maneuvers and put their hazard lights on and blow their little alarm horns like it's some kind of a blow (pun intended) to me. No, I love it all!! It makes me laugh and makes me feel great knowing that ultimately, I'm the one making them do it. So, there's just so much to have fun with. So much sarcasm I can shoot back to the sender. I can take it easy really....... Because I totally believe certain thresholds have been ... violated.... to say the least. I'm just excited about all of this, I never thought this many people would be interested in being a part of my life, they have made me feel very special and I'm glad to know that they think about me. They have given new meaning to my life and I want to thank them all!!! THANK YOU!!!!!

What a masterpiece. The 80's are rich with outstanding movies like Terminator, Alien, Predator and even Robocop. All the sequels you can throw in the garbade can. My two cents.
How could u forget Rambo??
@@DonYoGi8331 You really can't throw T2 or Aliens into the dumpster though. Those sequels were excellent.
Predator and Predator 2 on TNT in the afternoons scarred the daylights out of me especially where Billy fights it on the log and the meat locker in #2. Definitely had nightmares after that.
Alien is technically 70s
Honestly the Alien series in its entirety is pretty awesome.
I love this scene since...1987. :-)
Aww. Old love.
Roberto Dallossi dude I remember seeing this shit for the first time. I was 5 🙂
I had nightmares back then
ye me too, gona remember this one till death im sure :) watched on vhs so many times. i just kept reversing.
@@slaveofself1015 lol me to.
I saw this movie way too young. This entire movie, and this scene in particular, broke my 8 year old brain. I didn't sleep that night.
It's one of my top 5 movies now.
And the nights after
"I didn't sleep that night" you were lucky, for me it was more like tha month :)
I had a similar experience with Aliens and the chest bursting. I wasn't watching the movie in its entirety, just peaking round the corner when I was supposed to be in bed while my parents watched it. Scarred me for a while.
Fellow 80s kid who got traumatized by a lot of the same movies…and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Bro became the Toxic Avenger.... for a few minutes
