I would rather be... blind;

So recently, I've had a pretty intense craving for a bit of weird and kooky film lovin'. This is not for any particular reason... I guess it's just for the sake of me proving to people that I am weird and kooky... Try hards rock, okay! Anyway, one film - which certainly fits this category - has caught my wandering eye. It goes by the name of Repo! The Genetic Opera:


Now... I have yet to see this film, and yes, you may spoil it if you have seen it, in reason that I have read the entire plotline... Yes, I know... I'm a curious snitch... and I wanted to know why, for fuck's sake, Paris Hilton was casted.

Anyhow, the story is set in the near future (roughly, 40 years from now) and it's about the endeavours of a company named Geneco, which happens to be a Saviour to the vast amount of people who have suffered from organ failure. However, if you miss a payment for your replaced organ(s), there is no repossession... only a blood-thirsty assassin (Repo Man) hired to exterminate you. So, this film is pretty much about the way in which Geneco has affected the life of one of their Repo Men, Nathan, and his teenage daughter, Shiloh.

Okay, so judging by what IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes have told me, it isn't an uh-mazing film... BUT, in disparity, a lot of people have told me that it's quite extravagant, although you have to watch it with the proper mindset... don't really know what the proper mindset is, but OKAY.

On the other hand, I'm not really one who takes to heart the words of a critic, due to my strange and unpredictable taste in film. Therefore, I'm going to watch this horrific rock opera musical in order to see what it's like visually, as I already know what the story is... and I like it. =)

OH, and I've listened to the soundtrack. It. Is. Epic. So, to give you a taste of the film, I am not going to post the trailer, BUT, instead, I am going to post some of the musical numbers, because I feel that they actually present a huge amount of the film's nature. So, here are a few of them (Note: the embedding is disabled for all of these videos, so unfortunately, you have to pick up you're lazy keister and click on the links):


Sarah Brightman, who I love, is in all of these numbers and, just like that, they've been made even more epic.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed all of those videos!
Now, excuse me while I go do some school work. *Bangs head on desk, again*
Ta,
