Repo! The Genetic Opera: video NOT suitable for everyone
Found via Guanabee:
"The Genetic Opera tells the story of a not-too-distant future, where a wave of organ failures results in economic and social collapse save for one company - GeneCo. Run by Rotti Largo (Paul Sorvino), GeneCo sells replacement organs. When customers fail to pay for their new livers, corneas and kidneys, GeneCo sends out Repo Men to go forth and collect their product. The film focuses on one Repo Man, played by Anthony Stewart Head (of "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" fame) and his daughter, Shilo, played by Colombian-American actress Alexa Vega, who suffers from a rare blood disease. The film also features pop / opera (popera?) singer Sarah Brightman as a blind singer who is lent new eyes by GeneCo, Skinny Puppy's Nivek Ogre as Pavi Largo and Paris Hilton as his sister, Amber Sweet. Amber has a little problem with addiction, helpfully explained in the video below:"

I saw this in a live theater setting when it first came out a few years ago in NYC (The Wings Theatre). Very interesting. Lots of potential. And NOW they have the budget to make it as cool as they visualized it. I think I should see this.
Oh, not to mention Giles from Buffy is in it. Hello.
