About Repo

Repo is a one of a kind movie. Imagine the cult classic Rocky Horror Picture Show, add the fascinating imaginary of Moulin Rogue meets Saw and top that off with an unbelievable soundtrack. It's a modern and dark rock opera, based on a written play and composed by Darren Smith and Terrance Zdunich.

Plot Summary:

In the year 2056 - the not so distant future - an epidemic of organ failures devastates the planet. Out of the tragedy, a savior emerges: GeneCo, a biotech company that offers organ transplants, for a price. Those who miss their payments are scheduled for repossession and hunted by villainous Repo Men. In a world where surgery addicts are hooked on painkilling drugs and murder is sanctioned by law, a sheltered young girl searches for the cure to her own rare disease as well as information about her family's mysterious history. After being sucked into the haunting world of GeneCo, she is unable to turn back, as all of her questions will be answered at the wildly anticipated spectacular event: The Genetic Opera.
