Can't wait to see this! January 20th can't come soon enough! Would've liked something new for the coverart though, maybe.

I didn't get to see this in the movies. Can't wait to buy the DVD!
Never heard of this before, went over to IMDB, and this is now an instant buy.
Blind Buy !
I've seen it each time it's come to Chicago (3 times so far) and it gets better with each viewing. I can't wait to own the Blu Ray and have Repo parties!
I can't hardly wait!
Nice art, but anything with Paris Hilton in it is an instant pass.
That's a pretty shallow statement Phil92. Check out the trailer if you haven't yet. This looks very entertaining
Saw the world premiere in Montreal last summer at Fantasia.
It matched my expectations-- which were quite high. It delivers, but the song arrangements are a bit hazy. It kinda kills off some of the catchiness. But I love the jokey, grotesque vibe-- and the climactic opera scene where everyone dies is AWESOME.
Three out of five.

looks weird but interesting
Are Lionsgate US DVDs region locked, or are they all regions?
Loved what Darren did with the saw franchise (II,III,IV) so this is a must buy for me. This looks awesome and the soundtrack kicks ass!!! I missed this in theaters (playing far away from me) so this is a must buy for me on BD.

Sorry, but I've learned from the past. Pledge This!, The Hottie & the Nottie, etc.

you really thought it was necessary to ruin the ending without even warning people about spoilers?

LionsGate's biggest mistake was not putting this in wide release.
this looked terrible.
ok wow way to ruin the god damn ending.

This is nothing like those movies. This film is excellent. If you choose not to watch it because of ignorance, your loss.

Really liked this movie. Kinda disappointed that neither the dvd or blu ray will offer an extended version of the film with the deleted scenes/songs inserted back in. Nevertheless, I'm still picking this up on blu ray.
Will blind buy the blu version.
Not so crazy about the cover art but I really wanted to see this movie.
It was not playing in my area which made me kinda pissed.
The soundtrack was awesome though. Can't wait to rent this one.

Personally I think this movie looks terrible.. I hate musicals and Paris Hilton and Bill Moseley singing? I am a huge fan of Bill Moseley but I don't want to hear the guy sing. I might rent it but I'm definitely not expecting much.. I think some people are getting way too excited for this..
Looks AMAZING! I've been dying to see this movie. I love the soundtrack. I know I'll love the movie so I'm going to blind buy it. I wish this would have come to my theater. It seems made for the big screen.
And as much as I hate Paris Hilton, I'm not so ignorant that I'll skip this movie because she's in it (she's only supposed to be in it like 10 minutes and I've heard from others who dislike her that she's really not bad in it).

I was hopeing to god we get to see the short 10 min film Darren made with Shawnee Smith to get this film made. He said it was but then he found out it is license problems so now we wont see it. Damn Im such a huge fan of Shawnee and was hopeing I finally see it. That alone would of made me spend 40 bucks for the BD.

Sorry, but I've learned from the past. Pledge This!, The Hottie & the Nottie, etc.Harker is suggesting that the trailer for Repo! is good. I can't imagine what in the entire universe could have possibly looked remotely not horrendous in the trailers for Pledge This! and The Hottie & the Nottie. I, for one, was plenty amused by all of House of Wax, regardless of the inclusion and conclusion of Paris Hilton.

I will rent this in a second. I love Darren Lynn Bouseman's work (i.e. Saw II, Saw III, Saw IV). I'm glad there's at least some extras. Honestly 2009 is the best year of movies that were supposed to be released in theaters and go on DVD. Such as Midnight meat train (02/17), Amusement (1/20), and now this. Although I watched At the movies and they said this was the worst movie of 2009. Forget them!
