Monday, September 1, 2008 at 7:51PM Check Out Two Freaky New Clips from 'Repo! The Genetic Opera'
Though it's not part of the tidal wave of movies that
have shifted their release dates because of the defection of Harry Potter and
the Half-Blood Prince to July 2009,
Repo! The Genetic Opera has nonetheless bounced
around a bit and will now open on November 7th (the most recent release date was
early August).
Personally, I think this looks campy and cool as hell.
We keep hearing those disturbing rumblings about a
Rocky Horror
remake remake headed
for MTV, but to me, this looks like the next generation of that midnight
classic. In the not-too-distant future, a biotech company has a solution for a
worldwide epidemic of organ failures. The company - GeneCo - will loan you a
fresh organ...but you better not default or it could get really messy.
Darren Lynn Bousman of Saw II - IV fame
directs.
The cast is a true hodgepodge: The operatically trained
Paul Sorvino and
Sarah Brightman are probably
the best-suited for the musical, but Repo! also co-stars
Anthony Head from
Buffy,
Alexa Vega from Spy Kids, and the one and only
Paris Hilton. When we
debuted the trailer, we said the same thing we're telling you now: That's her in
the poster.
There are a couple clips for Repo! floating around
online; we snagged these from
Trailer Addict. Keep in mind, this isn't supposed
be The Sound of Music.
