Repo Man (1984)

I watched this through twice and I’m still not sure what to think of this. Emilio Estevez is a punk who is recruited into becoming a repo man by Harry Dean Stanton. There’s a girl, televangelists, aliens, and most importantly a ’64 Chevy Malibu that you shouldn’t open the trunk of. Estevez looks prettier than he ever did with his blonde crewcut and smooth tanned skin. The quality Stanton brings is above everything about this film, but manages to keep it cool. It definitely has a vision at its core and there’s a bit of commentary on life, particularly in Los Angeles, during the Reagan era.   SciFi
