But as with most horror movies, death is never the end. The end result was critical and box office death. It was picked up by Lionsgate Films to be made into a movie. Like Rocky Horror, Repo! began as a theatrical musical. If you’ve never heard of Repo! The Genetic Opera, you’re not alone. But if there is one movie that will rival the fun rock schlock: Repo! The Genetic Opera! When it comes to celebrating bad movies in the theater, it’s almost certain that nothing will take the place of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Probably because it’s more fun to watch schlock with your friends and make fun of it Mystery Science Theater 3000 style.

As a character the Graverobber must strive in the underbelly of this society in order for him to observe it as perfectly as he does.What is it about bad movies at this time of year? When Halloween rolls around, we could watch some of the best horror movies out there, or we can watch the absolute schlock. It also shows a sort of remorse from his actions, that he must “steal and rob” from the dead simply to survive in his present world. If the song is put back into context of the movie then it seems to simply be an introduction of the Graverobber as well as the sort of world that is present. It also poses questions about the strength of a person’s morale when it asks “Would you change who you are if you could?” While he sings the loudspeaker blares a sort of ironic argument with him as he seems to question the need to change while the loudspeaker claims that it is all “you will ever need”. If we take the lyrics to this song out of the context of the film then this song is an in-depth evaluation of society's climb and inevitable fall. Take for instance the Graverobber's perspective: He only deals with those who have died, so to him our simple-minded attempts at "perfection" are pitiful. My InterpretationThis song describes the Graverobber's job to harvest zydrate from the dead it also gives a different outlook on society. Would you change who you are, if you could?īecause it's quick, it's clean, and it's pure! Your designer heart still beats with common bloodĪnd what if you could have genetic perfection Enjoy GeneCo's day and nighttime formulas of ZydrateĪsk a Gentern if Zydrate is right for youīuying Zydrate from an unliscenced source is illegalĪnd you can finance your bones and your kidneysīut best you be punctual with making your payments
