Repo's New Home

Well, looky here; seems Darren Lynn Bousman’s Repo! The Genetic Opera found itself its very own website, all official like. See what happens when you look away from your movie for one second? They grow up so fast…

Repo Preps for the Web

Waiting is a pain in the ass, but worse than that is when you're waiting around and no news about something you're really looking forward to pops up. Good thing we've got social networking sites!

Repo! Moves Forward a Bit

The good news? There's some new art for Repo! The bad news? The project is just now reaching the DI color grading stage.

Bousman Updates Saw V, Repo!

So it’s not a big amount of news, but Darren Lynn Bousman just posted on his MySpace blog that the Saw V production offices have officially opened ... a mere two blocks away from where he’s working on Repo! The Genetic Opra.

Bousman Ready to Show Repo!

As Darren Lynn Bousman finalizes the editing on Repo! The Genetic Oprea, it sounds like he’s starting to really wonder just how the general populace will react to it. It’s an all-singing horror movie, for God’s sake, I guess you can’t blame him.

Repo! The Animated Opening!

Before Darren Lynn Bousman got behind the camera to make Repo! The Genetic Opera a reality, he made a short film with some friends on the weekend to prove how good it could be. Since there are some legal SAG issues with posting the entire short, he recently updated his MySpace page with the good news that you can, at least, check out how the short opened. And it’s animated! Dig it below!

A Visit to the Set of Repo! The Genetic Opera!

Flying out to Canada at a moment’s notice is not something I’m accustomed to, still being fairly green to the whole movie industry press gig. When the films to be talked about are Saw IV (review) and Repo! The Genetic Opera, I throw my gear in a bag and take off without further prompting.

Saw IV, Repo Updates

Shooting is going well over on the set of Saw IV, or so director Darren Lynn Bousman reports in his latest Fearnet blog entry. Everyone’s covered in blood, morale is high, and the cast and crew are having a great time.

Repo Cast & Crew (Repo! The Genetic Opera)

Interview by: Nomad Our man Nomad got the invite to head up to Toronto and see just what the twisted minds behind the Saw franchise were cooking up with their first horror rock opera, Repo! The Genetic Oprea. Boy, was he surprised. You can read about his experiences in our Repo! set visit, but we also have some auditory treats to share with you, specifically a 30+ minute chat with the stars of Repo!: Bill Moseley, Sarah Brightman, Anthony Stewart Head, etc., as well as the crew like writer Terrance Zdunich and director Darren Bousman. There’s also a good chat with Zdunich and co-writer Darren Smith as well, discussing the history of Repo! and how it went from what was essentially a two-man show to a big budget filmatic opera that they hope will change the face of cinema forever!
