I've had mixed feelings about the upcoming rock/horror musical REPO: THE GENETIC OPERA. First, it's directed by Darren Bousman (SAWs 2-4), a guy who I think has some true talent as a director. Second, it's got some ambition and balls to be trying something fresh and new. But in the end, I just haven't been jiving with the material from the film. It looks just a little too out there for my tastes. That said, this new trailer is the absolute best promotion for the film I've seen so far. Still far from great but it gives me hope that I'll wind up really digging the film (despite Paris Hilton singing). Check it out below!

Could be added to my list of decent musicals. At least its rock and not pop.

Looks actually good
wow, i'm actually surprised, i was expecting this to be a cut and paste slasher movie with a few songs. Apparently Bousman decided i needed to be proved wrong. I'm actually intrigued, no, stoked to see this. I'm not even mad about Paris Hilton being in it, hell maybe if we're lucky she'll get offed like she did in House of Wax.

Looks great, I'm intrigued, I'll be there.



and the kicker is OGRE from Skinny Puppy, that's a big plus for me!

WOW!
I think that just replaced "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" as my favorite trailer of the year.

cool...
let me see if i got this right...the prime minister from "little britain", ogre from skinny puppy (the 80's version of nine inch nails), an unrecognizable paris hilton, diva sarah brightman, all together?



here's the byline everyones gonna want to use, but you read it here first...



its this generations "rocky horror", an industrial strength opera for the horror...

Hah! That looks GREAT! I'm not wild about Paris Hilton even being IN the movie (read: I loathe that fact), but I'll be damned if I don't go see it anyway. Looks wacky, wild, and weird. It looks like BLADE RUNNER meets ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW meets SWEENEY TODD.
