Hey, do you wanna see a film packed with
originality?
Excellent characters? A
kick ass story? And even
catchy-it-makes-you-wanna-sing-a-long MUSIC? Well then search no longer, because you have finally found it. What am I talking about? Glad you ask and I’ll be happy to answer... the movie I’m YELLING about is...
REPO! The Genetic Opera.
You might have heard about this movie before and some of you might think it sucks for a variety of reasons like “It has Paris Hilton in it, so it must suck!” or “It was directed by the guy who made Saw and they sucked!” or maybe even “It’s a horror musical and musicals can only be happy, which is why I am stoked about High School Musical 3!” But hey, if you haven’t seen the movie, please be open, PLEASE! After all, you cannot judge art by looking at a mere section of it; you must look at the whole entire picture and then critique it.
Now, for all you open people out there, you might be asking yourselves “What the hell is REPO!?” Well, here’s a little synopsis of the film:
An epidemic of organ failures devastates the planet. Panic erupts and scientists feverishly make plans for a massive organ harvest. Out of the tragedy, GeneCo, a multi-billion dollar biotech company, emerges. GeneCo provides organ transplantation for a profit. In addition to financing options, GeneCo reserves the right to implement default remedies, including repossession. For those who can't keep up with their organ payments, collection is the responsibility of "organ repo men", skilled assassins contracted by GeneCo, ordered to recover GeneCo's property by any means necessary.
At the heart of the story is Shilo Wallace (Alexa Vega), a 17 year-old girl with a rare blood disease. She has been kept locked up and protected in her house, where she is guarded from the outside world by her father, Nathan Wallace (Anthony Head). While Shilo struggles with her wish to leave the house and experience the outside world, Nathan struggles with his job as the repo man, and more specifically, his next target, a woman named Blind Mag (Sarah Brightman). Blind Mag was a friend of Nathan's now-deceased wife, and is Shilo's godmother.
The Largo family, consisting of GeneCo president Rotti (Paul Sorvino), his daughter Amber (Paris Hilton), and his two sons Luigi and Pavi (Bill Moseley and Nivek Ogre, respectively), have their own plans. Rotti is dying, and the three siblings bicker and fight about who is to take the role as head of GeneCo.
The stories intertwine and merge at the GeneCo opera.
Sounds cool? Yes, I know, right!? And if you think that was cool, take a look at the awesome trailer packed with suspense, animation, blood... and of course music!
