      Genetic opera, bloody legend

      Unexpectedly, it is really an opera.

      The artistic style is very unique.

      There is blood in the darkness, and depravity and madness in depression. It strongly satirizes the evils of the capitalist system.

      Echoing from the beginning to the end, from death to rebirth, from despair to freedom.

      A dark musical

      A dark musical.

      First of all, this film is adapted from the stage play of the same name. The directors of the film and the stage play are Darren Lynn Bowsman, the director of several "Saw Cry", so the bloody scene should be imaginable.

      In terms of actors, the most pleasant surprise was the addition of Sarah Brightman, who played the opera star Margaret (the one who died in the end was particularly miserable). In addition, Pals Hilton didn’t need to mention it, it was just a...

      Lace everywhere

      Lace is pure literal meaning~ It's

      pretty good. After the Chinese New Year, I don’t know how to feel quite happy. Although the advertisement on Xun Lei Kan said it was a song and dance film, I thought it was a mysterious wax figure when I saw the ICS trailer. Hall-like thriller~ The
      beginning is a surprise, the comics are very American. In the middle of the film, when it comes to cutting, the picture is a little bloody. When I watched it, I sighed that it was fortunate that the...

      Dark singer

      If he is a dark walker,
      then his daughter is the light of night. Fear, despair, loss, excitement, and climax, these empty abstract nouns, surrounded by

      oppressive darkness on all sides , float in the same empty black night, and the light pierced from the singer’s eyes can penetrate these pain, joy, sorrow, and parting. Father and daughter. What do you say to say goodbye to welcoming new students ? . . Recently, I have been relatively lack of expressive skills, and the things I...

      It can be made into a wonderful masterpiece, but it was turned into a silly film by the shrinking director. Is it so difficult to buy a few more pounds of ketchup? ! Opera is not sung from beginning to end, ah, your sister's climax?...

      Darren Lynn Bousman, director of the Saw Department, Anthony Head, and Sarah Brightman! ? God knows what kind of combination... This film is developed from the director's 10-minute short film in 2006. What an amazing mix! Gothic Oprera! Fucking...

      Damn it, it's awesome, the cast is awesome, except for Sarah Brightman, the others are awesome too! The actors are all handpicked! Is that Hilton a bit ironic? The first film review won my heart, in fact, it is a play by a group of great people. The same type as the Rocky Horror Show, the industrial goth is too strong, the clothes, and the shape. As a cult work, it is five-star enough except that the picture is too delicate and the story is a little loose at the...

      It's actually a musical, interspersed with American comics, goth costumes, and the story is so-so. It is more prominent in the same type of...

    "Repo! The Genetic Opera" adopts a style that integrates many iconic characters, scenes and even plots from many horror films. The erosive and dark scenes are accompanied by bloody to nauseating behind-the-scenes transactions. Murderous urban forests everywhere, ubiquitous organ trading, and the apocalyptic atmosphere of a zombie movie, the innocent and ignorant girl instantly transforms into a haunted den and ghost nest where demons...
