Repo Chick | comment |
Repo Chick is a 2009 American comedy film written and directed by Alex Cox.Disinherited by her family for one public scandal too many, spoiled heiress Pixxi de la Chasse (Jaclyn Jonet) reluctantly goes to work for a repossession company to make ends meet. Turns out she's really, really good at it. Looking to make a quick score, she fixates on a missing train with a one million dollar bounty... not realizing that the caboose is filled with WMDs and a squad of eco-terrorists to boot.A semi/demi/quasi/not-really Stealth Sequel-cum-remake of Cox's 1984 Cult Classic Repo Man. Shot in ten days on green screen for $180,000, and set in a world of model trains and Matchbox cars, it substitutes celebutards for punk rockers and Terrorists Without a Cause for The Men in Black alien hunting. | |

Repo Chick / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: A spoiled, irresponsible, attention-whore heiress with an overblown sense of entitlement and the mistaken belief that everything she touches turns to gold. Gee, whoever could they be referring to? | |

Fluffy the Terrible | |
Repo Chick / int_41d5f145 | comment |
Fluffy the Terrible: Pixxi. Not the sort of name you would expect for a woman who can make grown men run in fear by whispering in their ear, and point a pistol like she means it. She can also throw a solid punch. Counts as a Killer Rabbit if you concentrate on her appearance instead of her name. | |
