Review of Repo Man (1984) by Irvin C — 15 Feb 2014
Emilio Estevez and Harry Dean Stanton are two men working as, well, repo men, specializing in cars. When a Chevy Malibu worth $20,000 with a weird, mysterious and deadly cargo pops up, things get complicated.
At first I thought this is one of those '80s buddy action-comedies but it turns out to be so much more than that. It's often wickedly funny and has an actual satirical edge which was pleasantly surprising.
This is actually my first venture into the films of Alex Cox. I think I'm gonna see more of him.
