REPO: THE GENETIC OPERA sequel, action figures?

The gorehounds at Bloody Disgusting caught up with Darren Lynn Bousman, director of the love-it-or-hate-it cult sensation Repo! The Genetic Opera, who said he's hopeful there will be a sequel.

"Terrance [Zdunich] and I are working on something, that if we are able to pull off, would be amazing," he said. "Let's just say that there is no way Repo is going away anytime soon. We have a lot in store, including new content. New music. And the hope is still there for a prequel. I can say that a bunch of new merchandise is now online - as well as action figures in the works!"

I can maybe see action figures. After all, the film's small but passionate cult following would snap up any merchandise in a hurry, and the film's grotesque characters would be naturals for toys. But my understanding is that Repo was a box-office disappointment even by indie movie standards, so a sequel is kind of hard to imagine at this point.
