First look at REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA

This horror/musical looks more lively than Sweeney Todd anyway...

Darren Lynn Bousman always works one film ahead of us. His latest movie Saw IV opens next week but work is already well under way on his first non-Saw flick, Repo! The Genetic Opera. The horror opera which looks as wacky as The Rocky Horror Picture Show has a preview reel online and it looks pretty cool. Anthony Stewart Head is clearly having fun in the lead villainous role of the Repo and the I love the blue eyed mask he dons. There's a frantic energy about this footage which is just sadly missing from Sweeney Todd. For those who are dying to see something a little different then this could be it. I hate musicals pretty much by default, but this one looks as if it works. Look for this in April, when Bousman will be similarly well underway on Scanners... CLICK HERE TO SEE THE FOOTAGE
