I love rock operas. I don't care if its Tommy or Jesus Christ Superstar or the new Repo: a genetic opera. I love them all.
I am really getting into Repo lately:
http://www.repo-opera.com/flash_home.html
I have the DVD and soundtrack.
WARNING: If you do not like goth/industrial rock music and are squeamish to gore this opera isn't for you.
I cannot say enough great things about Repo. Its Blade Runner, Wagner and NIN combined.
The plot is SciFi. In the future an illness causes organ failure. People died due to not being able to afford transplants. In comes a company called GeneCo. They offer payment plans on organs (and plastic surgery) and invent a high addictive pain med called Zydrate(its a synthetic form of endorphins). People soon become addicted to surgery and Zydrate.
If a person doesn't make their monthly payment to GeneCo they send out a Repo Man. He takes back the organ and in the process kills you.
If you like goth/industrial rock aren't afraid of gore and love elaborate costumes this opera is for you.
Jesus Christ Superstar use to be my favorite rock opera. Not anymore!
