An epidemic of organ failures devastates the planet. Panic erupts and scientists feverishly make plans for a massive organ harvest. Out of the tragedy, GeneCo a multi-billion dollar biotech company, emerges. GeneCo provides organ transplantation for a profit. In addition to financing options, GeneCo reserves the right to implement default remedies, including reposession. For those who can't keep up with their organ payments, collection is the responsibility of "organ repo men", skilled assassins contracted by GeneCo, ordered to recover GeneCo's property by any means necessary.

The remake of the stage show is being done by none other than SAW II-SAW IV director Darren Lynn Bousman. Repo! is in theaters April 25th, 2008.

Repo moves to the NEXT stage - - DI!!!

This morning was the single most exciting part of the REPO post thus far... THE DI color grading for the film... I was finally able to dial in the look I want for REPO... There is a hyper stylized look I am trying to accomplish - and this morning I SAW it come to life!

So - I need to address why I haven't been updating on REPO for a while - and overall the STATUS of where we are at...

Last week I spoke with bloody-disgusting.com about the status of repo... Here is what was said...

"Repo - has turned out to be a MUCH bigger process than anyone first thought.... We have over 50 songs - on top of that, numerous jingles ? and score pieces ... Its taken a long time to compose - master, and mix. Also the visual effect process is growing in size - I started off having a vision of a couple visual effects here and there... Well lets cut to three months later - where a couple visual effects has turned into over 200 visual effects... Including set extensions, CGI elements, etc. Also, something I am excited about ? is the animation ? we have quite a bit of animation in the movie ? drawn by none other than TERRANCE ZDUNICH (who also plays one of the leads GRAVEROBBER and the writer) he couldn?t begin drawing until the movie was locked ? as a lot of what we was drawing was based on completed visual effects, etc

Long and short ? we are speeding along at a rapid pace trying to get this movie done, ? but, at the same time ?this is a movie that I have been fighting to get made for what seems like forever I want to do it right... This is my passion project ? and when it goes out to the world ? I want to be proud ?and not ?wish?, wish I had done this, wish I had shot that.

Thank God I have producers who have been so supportive and have let me take the time I need to finesse this film."

So hope that clears some stuff up... This film has become my life... my blood and tears going into it... I need to make sure EVERYTHING is not just right -- BUT PERFECT!!!!

Well, enough talking - back to coloring the movie!!!

More soon!
