Repo! trailer: unstoppable force vs. immovable object

November 10th, 2008

So currently in limited release is Repo! The Genetic Opera.

I can’t tell whether I should see this movie.  I mean, some reviews imply that it’s one of the more original artworks to come along in years.  Meanwhile, the presence of Anthony Stewart Head, especially if he’ll be singing, makes this Buffy fan immediately vow to see the movie.

However, this clashes with my directive to never, ever, ever contribute in any way to Paris Hilton’s right to appear in any non-porn.  Plus… Sarah Brightman?  That’s just weird.  And, it’s from the people behind Saw, officially the most successful franchise I will never see.

What do do?

    Funny, I actually had these same thoughts when this project was first announced. I LOVE the concept – mad Shadowrun kind of setup – plus rock opera. But I’m beside you on the “Saw? Paris Hilton? Sarah Brightman? &*$&*#$^???”

    But it’s just weird enough and singy enough that I might have to see it. Who knows, maybe it will be the Rocky Horror Show of the Z generation.

    But yeah, weird.
