Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 5/5 --
A 1984 underground touchstone [that's] a creepy visitation from a fracturing society.

Film Racket
The desolate Los Angeles streets are characters, much as they were in noir features of the '40s and '50s.
Los Angeles Times
...[REPO MAN] is the real thing. It's a sneakily rude, truly zany farce that treats its lunatic characters with a solmenity that perfectly matches the way in which they see themselves...
New York Times
Alex Cox's debut feature fizzes with playful visual ideas and meta-movie gags of the kind Tarantino would adopt a decade or so later...
Sight and Sound
It's a one of a kind anomaly with Emilio Estevez at his best.

Rating: 4.5/5 --
A great teardown of an atomised society full of alienated people, turned up to caricatured levels by Cox and his fantastically committed cast.

Alternate Ending
Rating: 8/10 --
It was 1984 and Americans were on course to re-elect a s****y, sadistic, semi-sentient president. In a f****** landslide.

Description by OLDIES.com:

Emilio Estevez and Harry Dean Stanton star as repo men who get caught up in a series of bizarre adventures involving G-men, a nuclear scientist, UFO cultists and revolutionaries. Put your seat belt on and enjoy the wild ride in this groundbreaking, punk-rock, sci-fi black comedy with all-new bonus materials!
Product Description:
Otto (Emilio Estevez) is a Los Angeles punk, a loser with no direction and no role models. But he discovers a code of honor and higher purpose when he joins a select group of latter-day knights: the repo men. As a fledging apprentice, Otto slowly learns the ways of these high-caliber, overmedicated auto repossessors. And when a $20,000 bounty is placed on a mysterious missing car, Otto eludes the police, feds, religious cultists, and other repo men in a frantic search for this holy grail. Could one man's destiny lie in the back of a 1964 Chevy Malibu' Alex Cox's feature-film debut boasts a clever, satirical script that combines the larger-than-life edginess of urban L.A. with a bizarre array of science-fiction conspiracy theories. The film also features a strong soundtrack by an array of early 1980s punk and new wave bands and a terrific lead performance by Estevez.
