Does anyone feel like the movie Repo Men completely ripped off Repo! The Genetic Opera?

I'm curious if anyone else saw the similarities and thought it as well. Repo! was here first!

    Oh definitely, I loved Repo! and my jaw totally dropped when I read the premise for "Repo Men" they should count themselves lucky that Terrance Zdunich was so cool about it.

    I sounds like Hollywood repossessed Repo!'s script, lol. after I first ssaw the trailer for Repo adult men, i presumed, nicely, it really is in basic terms yet another action picture about organ repossession contained in the destiny (I propose, there are a approach of videos about volcanos erupting, asteroids hitting the earth, etc.), so I figured i might want to likely flow see it. yet then, I picked up the e book that Repo adult men is depending off of (Repossession Mambo) that changed into printed very last 12 months, it really is like they guy who wrote it copied such dissimilar issues from Repo!, no longer in basic terms the numerous plot of organ repossession, yet small information and sub-plots, and then tries to bypass it off as his own. Repo! has a repo guy (Nathan) who turns right into a repo guy because he's in debt to the evil organ alternative organisation (Genco). Repo adult men's repo guy (Remy) turns right into a repo guy because he's in debt to the evil organ alternative organisation (The Union) Repo! has a drug called Z that those who get transplants get addicted to. Repo adult men has a drug called Q (come on right here!) that those who get transplants get addicted to. Repo! has a ‘graverobber’ who extracts the drug Z from corpses to be bought on the black marketplace. Repo adult men has a guy who extracts the drug Q from human beings to be bought on the black marketplace. Repo!’s repo guy is going on the run from the organization, as does Repo adult men’s repo guy. both repo adult men kill their better halves, in spite of the indisputable fact that Nathan did by chance. Heck, even the promotional posters I’ve considered for Repo adult men look extremely reminiscent of Repo! promo posters. There’s one which just about the very similar, exhibiting someone’s skeletal face with eyeball transplants
