Jigsaw killer re-teaming with Saw IV director for Repo!

By Matt Holmes /

Darren Lynn Bousman the director of the last three Saw movies has cast none other than Tobin Bell, the "Jigsaw killer" for his rock horror musical Repo - The Genetic Opera. From MTV...

€œ€˜Repo€™ my next film and it€™s a rock opera,€ Bousman told us. €œThere is definitely camp to it, but it is much more serious than the €˜The Rocky Horror Picture Show€™. It is more violent than €˜Saw€™ too; in fact, it makes all of the €˜Saw€™ movies look like Disney films.€ €œYes, I can sing,€ the creepy Bell added, saying he€™s looking forward to the flick. €œI€™m a guitar player and a singer€I did hear some of the music, and its great. I think this movie is going to be remarkable.€
More violent than Saw? Interesting and I guess it was hinted at a couple of weeks back when we posted some images from the graphic novel that hinted at just as much. More on the flick from Bousman...
€œThe premise is organ repossession in the future. The idea is that everybody is buying up organs, and they cannot afford to pay for these organs. Thus, legalized organ repo-men come into the picture.€ €œMurder becomes sanctioned by law,€ he added. €œSo, if you buy a heart and can€™t afford it, someone can burst through the door and take your heart out€and they don€™t get in trouble for it. The very first scene sees singing while they are ripping the spinal cord out of someone.€
Sounds pretty original actually and very wacky. Bousman went on to mention the film is set ten years in the future and that a member of Nails (but not Trent Reznor) is working on the music for the opera.
