my fav movie ever actually
what is R!TGO about? I've been curious about watching it for a while, but I'm not too sure what the overall plot is
OHHHHH IM SO GLAD YOU ASKED!!!
It’s the not so distant future… an epidemic of organ failures devastates the planet… MILLIONS DIE!!! But then a saviour emerges… a company called Gene Co, which offers organs on finance! Surgery now, debt payment later!
Gene Co carves out a new niche, surgery as a fashion statement! Surgery is on vogue, and a drug called Zydrate makes the intensive procedures feel like nothing at all! A black market version of the drug is sold by graverobbers, extracted from corpses… which there are a lot of. Gene Co has a monopoly on surgery and Zydrate otherwise.
And if you don’t pay back your debt to Gene Co? Then… theY SEND OUT THE REPO MEN!!!! WHO REPOSESS YOUR TRANSFERRED ORGANS!!! BY DISEMBOWELLING YOU WITH COMICALLY ABSURD GORE EFFECTS!!!! AND SINGING JOVIALLY WHILE THEY DOOOOO!!!!!!!
The movie itself starts when the founder of Gene Co, Rotti Largo, falls terminally ill. He must choose one of his three batshit insane children to inherit the company and its fortune. One of his children is a surgery addict, the other wears women’s skinned faces for fashion, and the last one stabs people whenever he’s angry. Which is always. He is always angry. And he really likes ripping open his shirt. And yelling.
It seems Rotti Largo has his eyes on someone *other* than his own kids though… a sheltered 17 year old girl who’s spent her life indoors because of an inherited blood disease, it’s just her and her very normal doting father! So how does Rotti know her? And why has he invited her to the opera tonight, to see the final performance of Gene Co’s beloved poster child Blind Mag? AND HOW MANY TERRIBLE GORE SCENES, TERRIBLE DIALOGUE EXCHANGES, EARLY 2000S EVANESCENCE MUSIC VIDEO-ESQUE FILTERS, CHEEZY SHOTS, ABSURD TWISTS AND TURNS, AND BATSHIT INSANE SCENES CAN WE CRAM INTO 1 HOUR AND 38 MINUTES?
This synopsis makes it sound like a somewhat coherent story. I promise you it is not. The execution of this plot is so bad it’s perfection. My fav response to the film from someone ik was “The first time I watched it I had a high fever and was sure I hallucinated some of it. I was wrong. It’s exactly how I remember. It’s just like that.” paraphrasing (hi if you see this :3). It’s gorey it’s campy it’s terrible and it takes itself so seriously. The line delivery is so comically bizarre. The gore has cartoon sound effects. The music actually slaps. The main character is so painfully Y/N. And the writer/ co-director cast himself to play the cool mysterious sexy dude that every woman falls at the feet of. And Paris Hilton is there. Everything about it is PERFECT. Number one favourite film of all time.
Happened to finish this today. Happy birthday Miss Sweet! Here's some GeneCo propaganda.
