Repo Man Sequel


This one is a no brainer for me. I'm a huge comics fan. I'm a huge Alex Cox fan (isn't that picture of him hilarious?) I got the unbelievable opportunity to meet him at the festival last year when we screened his latest film. I even got to do the introduction in the theatre! So here is the big weird news, Cox has written a sequel to his beloved early film REPO MAN and is publishing it in comics form. There's only a little sample online, and it looks weird and brilliant like everything he does is.

Additional good news this month is that Criterion is releasing a DVD of his long unavailable film WALKER. If you have not seen this I highly recommend it. It is one of my absolute favorites along with STRAIGHT TO HELL.
