Repo the Genetic Opera is a musical horror film based on a 2002 play. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, a biotech company, Geneco, sells organ transplants to the survivors. If a customer defaults, the transplantable organs are promptly repossessed, in a most unpleasant fashion.MTV: Repo The Genetic Opera: Schlocky Horror Show (November 7, 2008)
Review Quotes
- "the tunes are largely formless, and many of the lyrics have the flat quality of words that should have been simply spoken, not sung.The picture runs just 98 minutes, but it already feels too long three-quarters of the way in. It feels unnecessary from the beginning."—Kurt Loder, MTVMTV: Repo The Genetic Opera: Schlocky Horror Show (November 7, 2008)
- "Photographed in a murky style ostensibly to feel futuristic, the movie is a convoluted mess, rife with sado-masochism. As if that weren't enough, viewers must slog through a sappy conclusion, accosted by some of the most banal songs imaginable.Repo! might have been an SNL or MADtv skit, but as a movie, it should be repossessed by its financiers."—USA TodayUSA Today: Repo The Genetic Opera At Your Own Risk (November 6, 2008)

Just finished "Repo! The Genetic Opera" — powerful, albeit thoroughly fucked up. Anthony Stewart Head has a phenomenal voice for rock opera.
