Review of Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008) by Richsinard — 08 Jul 2016

I had the almost accidental pleasure of viewing this gem on VHS in 2010. It as most movies was buried in a stack of other weekend rentals, of which generally went unnoticed and forgotten, especially due to the social agenda fueled by recreational drugs and alcohol.

... which often followed my friday evenings,the video rental chore was mainly to ensure there was noise and light coming from the TV. What can I say, wow! It didnt only get my attention, but left me pinned to the couch, its soundtrack and its macabre story, sewn seamlessly into a visually surreal, and convincing futuristic dirty world grabbed me.

I dont know how many times I watched that weekend, at least three. It not an easy movie to find, but , thanks to the internet, and my brain pulling from its archives,the faint, but fond memory. of the entertainment enjoyed 16years ago, I think I loved more this weekend.
