Repo! The Genetic Opera

In 2009, I didn't review movies, so much as briefly recomend a few via my Facebook account, This was one of them...

Another great film shat all over by the distributors – This time a labour of love from the producers of ‘Saw’, based on a stage show.


A true rock opera (not a spoken word in the entire movie), ‘Repo!’ is set in a future where an epidemic of organ failures has sparked a new industry; Financed transplants. Thanks to Geneco’s affordable plans, anyone can afford surgery – both necessary and cosmetic, however miss a payment, and Geneco will send in the Repo man to take back what’s theirs…. Focusing on one such Repo Man (Anthony Stewart head) ‘Repo!’ is a highly stylised tale of addiction, betrayal and loss, which you will either love or hate.
