For more details about Repo! The Genetic Opera on Blu-ray, see the Repo! The Genetic Opera Blu-ray Review Repo! The Genetic Opera Blu-ray, Video QualityLionsgate Presents Repo! The Genetic Opera on Blu-ray with a 1080p high definition transfer framed inside a 1.85:1 window. Shot on a High Definition Panavision Genesis HD Camera, the film features a very unique look. The picture is dark throughout with splashes of color here and there, most of it washed out by bright lights that drown out much of the color and detail. Whites in particular appear almost blinding in a few shots, and this lighting scheme, aided by some makeup, lends to many characters a ghastly, almost vampiric look that completely eliminates natural flesh tones in favor of a frighteningly pale appearance. This overblown look also lends soft edges to most every object. Fine detail is washed out as a result. Occasionally, viewers will note moderate detail in clothing or background objects, but the majority of the film is soft and slightly blurry in appearance. Blacks are a little dull in some shots and rock solid on others. Some noise is seen over the image. Repo! The Genetic Opera Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() Repo! The Genetic Opera tears onto Blu-ray with a DTS-HD MA 7.1 lossless soundtrack. This track makes sure to utilize all seven speakers, each providing plenty of atmosphere, sound effects, and music spilling out of every corner of the listening area. It sounds fantastic over the opening comic book sequence that sets up the back story, but loses a little steam from there. The more mundane scenes feature tiny-sounding effects, and music never really features the same powerful, clear and robust presence as did that opening segment. It's not bad, though. Everything comes through crisply and cleanly, with a decent amount of oomph behind it, but not quite as efficient and impressive as that opening. Dialogue reproduction is fantastic, with nothing hindering the spoken or sung word. This is a perfectly good track, but one that might have enjoyed a bit more in the way of robustness and power.
