Repo Man is in a special class with the likes of “Big Trouble In Little China,” “They Live,” and “The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across The 8th Dimension.” It is definitely one of the most quotable movies from the 80’s. Love this movie!

The generic food was not just symbolic, but was a thing in the early 80’s. Coming out of the inflation and stagflation of the late 70’s it was not uncommon to see unbranded generic food in the stores in the early 80’s as a way to cut the price.

Just as an aside, Alex Cox did not actually write the script for the Fear & Loathing movie. Rather, he was attached to an earlier attempt to make the movie that fizzled out. However, some Hollywood writer's guild rules say that the first person to write a script always gets screen credit, even if (as happened here) 100% of what they wrote was rewritten by the time the movie is made.
@RLanceHunter
Жыл бұрын
Yeah, Terry Gilliam did a page-1 rewrite and kept absolutely nothing that Alex Cox did. They had to go to arbitration to decide who got credit for the script. That's where the union has three other members review the drafts (with neither of the writers' names attached) and uses a strict set of rules to decide who get the credits. The WGA rules at the time weren't specifically that the first person to attempt the script gets the credits, but when you do an adaptation the arbitration process *heavily* favors the first writer, because they award a lot of points on things like character names and locations that are going to have first been used by the first writer, even if the entire structure of the story is different in the final script. Gilliam was so frustrated at the way the WGA screwed him here that he quit the union and did a whole special feature on the Criterion Collection release talking about how it was an injustice.

This was one of my father’s favorite movies & he’s right the soundtrack is great
My dad bought my a VHS copy back in 1996. It instantly became one of my all time favorites. The soundtrack is great, like he said.
Cox also hosted cult movie seasons on the BBC in the UK in the '80s and '90s called 'Videodrome' where I first saw Coppola's 'Rumblefish' (Mickey Rourke, Matt Dillon, Nic Cage, Dennis Hopper, Diane Lane) which is one of my favourite films ever. He was a bit like our Joe Bob Briggs but not strictly schlock.

I'm glad you did this film review. This has been a favorite of mine since the 80s.
If I had to list my 10 favorite films, this one would be on the list. I saw this movie in a theater and had probably one of the best laughs of my life.
I've never seen this film but I NEED to see it now. Also, nice use of the Repo Man's WWF entrance music during the title card...that was pretty damn cool! 😎
All this plan product placement reminds me of the 1980s in my hometown the grocery store Kroger's. They had a generic brand of products called Kroger Cost Cutting and everything was packaged in yellow.
Another good 80's era punk movie ( my 2nd favorite ) is Suburbia. Released in 1984 & well worth a watch.
Ever since I've seen Repo Man way back I think in early 90s I've always put it into one categor: AWESOME.
Yeah that scene of vaporizing the cop had the same special effect skeleton radioactive vaporation that you saw in that one definitely not a cold war movie The Day After.
Need to see this in a double feature with Remo Williams.
The TV cut of this had alternate scenes like the parents being covered with cobwebs. Finding it while flipping channels was a bizarre experience.
Those grocery store products aren't props made for the movie. In the early 80s there was a trend for "generic" products following on the generic medicine thing. Same great product, made in the same factory, without the name brand. As a way to save money. It was the precursor of the store brands like Kirkland or Great America are now. The blue and white products were carried by the Ralph's grocery stores, Stater Brother's version had plain brown wrapping and black text.
I bought it sight unseen, because I’ve heard so much about it. Man, it was a fascinating trip with some pretty good commentary.
When they released this movie to UHF channels in the 90s in the US they dubbed over the swear words and one of the more over used words became "meadow farmer" which made the TV version even funnier.

The movie implied that the scientist who had the car was stealing a neutron bomb, and that was what was in the trunk, but it is also purposely vague. It is undoubtedly a cult classic from the 80’s.
This is unusual quality. You should do some more of Emilio's stellar work like A BOY AND HIS DOG or FREEJACK (which really should have been titled "Deathjack."). There's more to Estevez than MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE.

The movie itself doesn’t seem to get a whole lot of attention, and there is not even any mention of the initial reception of the film.

"Generic products," basically store products with very blank minimalist packaging, were very big when this movie came out. I actually enjoyed some of them, like the corn chips, although the spaghetti sauce tasted like French salad dressing.

Actually the generic labeling was in fact a real trend in the early 80s, Ralph's as shown in the movie being the most infamous.
Cox seems to really like punk rock. He also directed Straight To Hell (1987) with Joe Strummer of The Clash.
