Silent Running

What is the name of an 80's sci fi flick directed by Paul Verhoeven with the tagline, "Part machine, part human, all cop."?

 

[littlemissattitude]

Ozzy bit the head off a bat, and had to undergo rabies injections for all his trouble. He claims that he thought it was a toy when he did it.

As far as I know, Alice never bit the head off anything. Too busy playing golf.

And, to get back on topic, I'd guess "RoboCop." But it's just a guess, so I'll wait for confirmation before I post a question.

Absolutely correct, knivesout. Your turn.
