 Paris Hilton is Amber Sweet in Repo: The Genetic Opera  Repo the Genetic Opera dvd Review from The Yarg I watched this film the other night after picking it up from the store. I was waiting for it for over a year, and it did not disappoint me one bit. Full of great music, wonderful lyrics, a kick ass soundtrack in itself, acting that was out of this world, and lets not forget the gore factor, lordy no! Starring Alexa Vega, yes, the little girl from the Spy Kids films, whom i did not know had such a lovely singing voice... Anthony Stewert Head, who is most famous for his role on the Buffy The Vampire Slayer Series as Giles, Paul Sorvino, Bill Mosley, and not a bad performance by Paris Hilton, and for those who know me, I dont much care for the PH.
Taking place in a world, where out of the blue, organ failures hit across the world, killing millions and millions of people, after a few years of this taking place, a company emerges out of the dust, a hero? On the horizon, GENECO! will give you new organs for a price. Just make your payment, and there wont be a problem. After a few years of this, congress legalizes reposessions! Which means, that if you miss a payment, they send in THE REPO MAN! to repossess your organs, killing you in the process... This rock opera, which means that there is no talking, only singing throughout... was for me, a nice refreshing wake up in the land of "musicals" there hasnt been such a great musical in my eyes since TOMMY originally written by The Who.
The films, which centers around Alexa Vega's character, Shilo, whom is stricken by a blood disease, to which keeps her inside, away from the cruel world outside, her overbearing, and protective father, played by Anthony S. Head, tries to shield her from the world outside. full of rebellion against her father, she decides to go out in the world, discovering the new age drug, the ever so popular, elective organ transplants, she uncovers a deadly secret about her father, and of the company GENECO...
I give this film my stamp of approval for all gorehounds out there...
10 out of 10 Snapping Zombie Heads...
