Yes, but I also remember him relenting and giving her the surgery she wanted ($70,000 worth?) which suggested to me that daddy's little girl got whatever she wanted in the end if she just pouted long enough.

But only because the opera was that night and her last street surgery was botched, so he had little choice.

How can you pout without a face??

Whoa, crazy. From Wikipedia:

Quote:

A very similar film has entered production named Repossession Mambo which shares the same basic plot. Editing of these films took place in adjacent studios. It is to be noted that Repo! The Genetic Opera was in production well before this film was announced, and had existed as a play for several years before the movie began filming.[25].
It is also interesting to note that "Repossession Mambo" is being produced by Universal Pictures, a company that had agreed to bankroll "Repo! The Genetic Opera" if Darren Lynn Bousman had agreed to remove the musical aspect of the film and approach it from a more "legitimate" angle. Bousman declined and began his personal mission of seeing "Repo! The Genetic Opera" to fruition. reference: Q&A with Darren Lynn Bousman (director) and Terrance Zdunich (co-writer and actor) held November 17, 2008 in Winter Park, FL.

So if DVD sales don't do them any good, perhaps they can live large of a plagiarism lawsuit!
