After quitting his dead-end supermarket job, young punk Otto (Emilio Estevez) is initiated as a "repo man" after a chance encounter with automobile repossessor Bud (Harry Dean Stanton). An illicit, high-voltage life follows, including an adrenalised search for a mysterious '64 Chevy Malibu loaded with radioactive - and extragalactic - cargo. Arguably the defining cult film of the Reagan era, the feature debut of Alex Cox is a genre-busting mash-up of atomic-age science fiction, post-punk anarchism, and conspiracy paranoia, all shot through with heavy doses of deadpan humour and offbeat philosophy. With an iconic soundtrack (Iggy Pop, Black Flag, Suicidal Tendencies), stunning Robby Müller cinematography, and iconoclastic direction, Repo Man remains one of the great debuts of the 1980s.

A brief look at the list of films that Alex Cox has been involved in immediately reveals that he is not a filmmaking ace but rather a second-rate filmmaker who mainly works on B-movies. However, in the 80s, he managed to fill movie theaters and create a unique phenomenon with just one title. He captured the mood and needs of young American audiences, and although film critics, diplomatically speaking, did not hide their reservations, his film Repo Man went from being an outsider to being a temporary king. Cox himself could not define what the success of the film consisted of, and in the end, he was never able to repeat it. His confusing story, accompanied by lingering punk, about a guy who tries his luck as a repo man after losing his job and faces the challenges of crazy scientists and aliens in his new role, has a clearly B-movie anchor. Therefore, I approached the film with the conviction that I would give up after a few minutes. Perhaps it was precisely the absence of expectations that ultimately caused me to not only finish the film but also reward it with 3 stars and an overall impression of 55%. It is definitely not a masterpiece, but if you embrace Cox's game, it can surprisingly work. However, considering its bizarreness, I would hesitate to recommend it to anyone...

It's a weird movie, no doubt about that, but in its weirdness, it's kind of consistent, so you feel like it all actually makes sense. Still, you will be confused and will not understand what the film meant to say. And yes, this may be the reason why the film has become a cult classic. Certainly, the whole idea of repo men is at least interesting.
