Dystopia VS Utopia

For my Metropolis brief i am going to be reconstructing the 'zombie'/'virus' 
panic. I am also going to be transforming peoples faces of the public in zombie faces,
its going to be...interesting!
I am choosing to do this as i wanted my brief to be referring more to Dystopia than Utopia
and that made me think 'what was Dystopia to me?' and that's how i got my idea of the 'end of the world', 'the dead living again'

Repo/Metropolis

 Repo! The Genetic Opera

Storyline

In the year 2056 - the not so distant future - an epidemic of organ failures devastates the planet. Out of the tragedy, a savior emerges: GeneCo, a biotech company that offers organ transplants, for a price. Those who miss their payments are scheduled for repossession and hunted by villainous Repo Men. In a world where surgery addicts are hooked on painkilling drugs and murder is sanctioned by law, a sheltered young girl searches for the cure to her own rare disease as well as information about her family's mysterious history. After being sucked into the haunting world of GeneCo, she is unable to turn back, as all of her questions will be answered at the wildly anticipated spectacular event: The Genetic Opera.






I thought that this film related to Metropolis because the film is based in the future, they have strange ways of living and everyone are surgery adicts and have to have a rare injection to save certain people. It is strange and twisted but very entertaining. 

I think the film is Dystopia, more that Utopia. It is a twisted world with 'repo men' looking for villians and people roaming the street.
