...because movies, especially B movies, are much more fun in groups.
The Date: Saturday, November 8th
The Time: 7:30 PM
The Location: Landmark's Lumiere Theatre (California at Polk)
The Movie: REPO! The Genetic Opera
You are invited to join Tomas Diablo and your fellow Strangelove attendees to see Repo! The Genetic Opera. Repo! is a Victorian Gothic tale of tragedy, greed, corruption and revenge, given the structure of a classical Italian opera and then set in a grim near-future worthy of Blade Runner. Widespread organ failure plagued human society until GeneCo arrived to provide the salvation of financed organ transplants. However, GeneCo retained the right to repossess organs that were defaulted on, paving the way for legal murder by GeneCo-employed "repo men." And the introduction of an addictive surgical painkiller (Zydrate) and massive advertising propaganda ensured that people would continue to receive surgeries, even those they did not need or could not afford them.
Repo! The Genetic Opera features Ogre (from Skinny Puppy), Anthony Head (Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Sarah Brightman, Paris Hilton, Paul Sorvino, Alexa Vega (the young cutie from the Spy Kids movies is now 20!), Bill Moseley (who's resume includes Army of Darkness and all of Rob Zombie's films) and writer Terrance Zdunich.
