 ... sure to be not to all tastes, it's a refreshing take on the musical genre, which tends to be overly camp, and not much fun unless you enjoy corny burlesque sequences. The film takes place in 2056, with organ failure at an all-time high due to environmental issues, and so new organs are supplied by the nefarioius Bio-Tech Company GeneCo, run by Rotti Largo (Paul Sorvino). The film's protagonist is Shilo Wallace (Alexa Vega), a young girl who has been held inside her home by her father, Nathan (Anthony Stewart Head),...more

Premium Review Darren Lynn Bousman - Repo! The Genetic Opera (DVD): A strange, seductive musical (288 words)

note: also appears in part on Flixster and The Student Room Darren Lynn Bousman made a name for himself with the hugely successful splatterfest sequels Saw II, Saw III and Saw IV. However, he was smart enough to bow out before that series got overly ridiculous, and moved on to more original pastures, such as Repo: The Genetic Opera, a project he essentially worked on Saw for in order to amass the funds to release this film. It's a quirky film, and although sure to be not to all tastes, it's a refreshing take on the musical genre, which tends to be overly camp, and not much fun unless you enjoy corny burlesque sequences. The film takes place in 2056, ...  Read the complete review

I borrowed this dvd from a friend. I had heard a little bit about it before I watched it, and I was curious about seeing Paris Hilton singing and acting as a plastic surgery addict.

Then a saviour emerges, a wealthy man named Rotti who creates a company named GeneCo, who is willing to give organ transplants which he makes it affordable to the masses by allowing people to pay in instalments. The transplants seem to become quite a fashion statement and you can get transplants for pretty ...  Read the complete review

As soon as I saw the trailer for this, I knew it was my kind of film. Dystopian future? Check. Slight cybergoth feel? Check. Anthony Head showing of his impressive singing voice? Check. I couldn't wait to watch it. It had been described to me as 'Rocky Horror meets Bladerunner' - what's not to love?! I had high expectations - and this film met every one of them. It is set in the future after a series of serious organ failure epidemics. A genetic engineering (and cosmetic surgery) corporation has risen to power, offering high-priced replacement organs to anyone who wants them ... however, until you've paid off the organs remain the property of Geneco, ...  Read the complete review
