10 years ago today, at around this hour, I planted my ass into a movie theater seat in Winnetka to see a work in progress movie titled Repo! The Genetic Opera. Not knowing that I was going to be walking into a movie that for the next several years was going to be my obsession! In a theater full of people who didn’t get or liked the rock opera I FELL IN LOVE. I’m talking I contacted one of the creators and writers, @terrance.zdunich and told him how much I loved it and eventually got my nickname “Nil”! I preached the good word of this movie to everyone AND anyone who would (and wouldn’t) listen, I created fan art, joined the repo army, got involved with fellow addicts like @spookydanwalker to nerd out even more about the movie. I joined the shadow cast and for 4 years, I’ve served up organs as a sexy GENtern, murdered doctors as a Henchgirl, and slummed the alleys for zydrate as a scalpel slut. Hell, I even got to play the beautiful and tragic song bird, Blind Mag. And best believe if anyone asked me to bust out the “Testify” dance routine I still know it all by heart! I still have all my signed movies/posters, all my costumes, GENtern shoes, zydrate gun necklace, the list goes on! I know for others who became Repo fans they saw the movie on 11-7-2008 but today is my TRUE Repo-versary! So Happy 10th Repo! A decade later and I’m STILL addicted to the knife! 🔪🌡💉🖤🤘🏽#nilissues #repothegeneticopera #repoopera #movie #fangirlissues #happy10thanniversary #happy10 #cultclassic #stillafan #thefirstfan #repoarmy
