Oh, Dear God - Where to Start???

You will likely either love this or hate it. Most people seem to hate it and I can understand why. If you loved it, good for you, but spare me the "well you just didn't get it" speech. I got it just fine - and thought it was a waste of precious moments of my life.

We watched this for Anthony Stewart Head and he absolutely didn't disappoint. You may or may not like the movie, but Tony did a fantastic job on his character. Sarah Brightman was an unexpected talent as well.

As for the rest, it's a standard case of the writers being a little too in love with themselves and their work. Strutting about their originality, Repo! is a knock-off of all that came before it. Reminiscent of Rocky Horror, Bladerunner, Tommy etc the only originality is when they decide to toss in some totally random element that leaves you going, 'Huh? What was that?!?!' and not usually in a good way.

The plot is thin and full of holes, the ending weak and along the way plot points are either rushed or drrraaaggggged out.

Some songs are good, but most aren't. Most singers were pretty bad as well, but ultimately that's subjective. If you define a 'cult' movie as a movie that only a very small segment of the population would like, then these are cult songs.

Even then I couldn't call it a cult movie because it's trying too hard. Trying to be original while stealing so much from others and trying to be 'innovative' and 'daring' while only succeeding in being 'random' and 'confusing'. It isn't defined as a cult classic because it's adored by fans, but because the authors demand that it be classified as such.

While I have to give credit to the costuming and sets overall, the movie still plays like it was written by two teenage boys ventilating their hormonal obsession with metal, blood and sex and then arrogantly calling it the new standard.
