Review of Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008) by Greg S — 30 May 2010
Rock opera about a bizarre future where a mysterious disease has made organ failure commonplace, and people live on genetically engineered organs that are repossessed if their owners fall behind in payments.
It's such a cool idea that you really want to like it, but the obstacle is that it's a musical without one hummable tune or memorable lyric. Unfortunately, the poor execution in this one has set back the cause of gory horror/sci-fi/black comedy musicals by about 30 years.
