While a release date for MAMBO hasn’t been set yet, the MPAA just fired off a rating for the film, which scored a nice, meaty R rating for strong bloody violence, grisly images, language and some sexuality/nudity. Which, similarly enough, are some ofthe same reasons why REPO! scored its R rating as well. Interesting…,
As a recap, MAMBBO (based on the novel by Eric Garcia) is set in the near future when artificial organs can be bought on credit, it revolves around a man who struggles to make the payments on a heart he has purchased. He must therefore go on the run before said ticker is repossessed.
In a way, it works as a nice spin-off to REPO!, following the story of people who can’t make the payments, and not the Repo Man. I can dig it. Plus, you can bet your ass that there won’t be any singing involved here either, which for all intents and purposes, is a very good thing.
Now all we have to wait for is the release date, which I can only assume is just haning above the horizon. Stick around as we find out!
