For some reason, this particular 80s flick has eluded me for years. One word: wacky. Some great lines.
"What about our relationship?"
"What?"
"What about our relationship?"
"F*** that."

Great movie...One of the few I can watch over and over...
Duke, let's go do some crimes.
Yeah. Let's go get sushi and not pay.
Wonderful movie. Shortly after it came out, I met up with my sister, who said 'Repo Man. See it.' One of the best movie reviews ever.
I like the sound track.

My favorite line in a a movie full of great lines.
Somewhere on this board is a repo-man thread full of all the great lines in it.

Then doesn't she follow up with something like: "You shithead! I'm glad I tortured you now!" ?
I just love opening scene where Kevin is singing the 7-Up song over and over as Otto slowly goes insane.
University of Northern Colorado Greely T&F coach, Kevin Galbraith, has a lighting credit in that film.
Otto: "You're gonna be alright."
Duke: [convulsing, spitting blood, and then lying still]
Otto: "Maybe not."
Bud: "Who gets the 60%?"
Otto: "Well, I was thinking that since I was the one who originally found the car..."
Bud: [pulls a gun and points it at Otto]
Otto: "...that you'd get the 60%."
"Suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. Suddenly someone will say, 'Plate' or 'Shrimp' or 'Plate of shrimp,' out of the blue. No explanation and there's no point in looking for one either. It's all part of the cosmic unconsciousness."
"You know the way everybody is into weirdness right now? Books in all the supermarkets about the Bermuda Triangle, UFO's, how the Mayans invented television, that kind of thing? Well the way I see it it's exactly the same. There ain't no difference between a flying saucer or a time machine."
"People get so hung up on specifics, they miss out on seeing the whole thing. Take South America for example. Every year in South America thousands of people turn up missing. Nobody knows where they go. They just disappear. But if you think for a minute, realize something: there had to be a time when there was no people right? Well, where did all these people come from? I'll tell you where: the future. Where did all these people disappear to: the past. How did they get there? Flying saucers, which are really, yeah, you got it: time machines."
Duke: The lights are growing dim. I know a life of crime led me to this sorry fate. And yet I I blame society. Society made me what I am.
Otto: That's bullshit. You're a white suburban punk, just like me.
Duke: But it still hurts.
You do a lot of acid back in the hippie days, Miller?
I knew malmo had to chime in - he is a HUGE fan of this movie, as is anyone with good taste! I agree it is one of the most quotable movies of all time. Raising Arizona comes to mind too...

Miller: I think a lot about this kind of stuff. I do my best thinking on the bus. That how come I don't drive, see?
Otto: You don't even know how to drive.
Miller: I don't want to know how. I don't want to learn. See? The more you drive, the less intelligent you are.

Anyone notice that "Bud", "Lite", and "Miller" are all names of characters and also names of beers? (Or DRINK as they put it in the movie!)

You're the first.

wait malmo - did you star in the movie, too :)
"Put it on a plate, son, you'll enjoy it more"
"I couldn't enjoy it any more, mom. Umm-mmmm!"
"Now that you mention it, I do feel funny..." (collapses and dies)
"The two hemispheres are fundamentally at odds..."
"Hey kid, wanna earn twenty bucks?"
"F*** off, queer."
"I gotta get my car out of this BAD AREA."
"What about your wife?"
"What? Oh, she's a rock; she'll take the bus."
"Do you want me to come to your house and flush your dog's head down the toilet?"
"A repo man's got ALL NIGHT, EVERY NIGHT!"

Indeed. It's one of the few movies I actually bought, and one reason to keep the ancient VHS player.
Not a lot of films out there like it. One older cousin, it seems to me, is Putney Swope.
