To anyone who's never heard of it, it's seriously an amazing movie. Like, it's fairly low budget, but you can hardly tell. Okay, to demonstrate how good a movie it is (in my opinion, at least), it made me gain a little respect for Paris Hilton. lol. I mean, she her character's pretty much a floozy, (Go figure, right?) but she took on a really dark role. It also features Alexa Vega (Spy Kids), Sarah Brightman (Phantom of the Opera), Nivek Ogre (Skinny Puppy), and quite a few other big names. It just didn't get a lot of promotion (Here, anyways. I'm not sure if it got better promoted or anything in other places.), so oddly, not too many people know about it. The director of the movie is uhm... The same guy who directed a few of the Saw movies. I can't remember which ones specifically, and I'd Google.. But I'm immensely sleep deprived, atm. :b I just wanna finish this post and nap. But the director plays the character, Graverobber, if I'm not mistaken.. But don't hold me to that one, if you watch it, and I'm wrong. :b

But yeah, it's an opera, so everyone sings their lines. If you fancy the idea of a twisted, but talented rock opera, then I'd highly suggest seeing it. There's a few scenes that are mildly gory. I wouldn't think it'd be an issue, but if you have a like.... MEGA weak stomach, stay away from those scenes. :s

That links a slight jist of it's style. For the most part, every scene and song's different.

But yeah, at this point, I'm probably just rambling. I'm just gonna stop typing, now. x)
It's just a really interesting movie, with a very misfit, but perfect at the same time, cast.

EDIT:*Didn't realize there were already posts of this movie, until after I posted this. That's actually exciting, lol. Sorry for the wasted post, then. x)*
