Set in Los Angeles, “Repo Man” follows young punk rock fan Otto (Emilio Estevez), who joins a car repossession agency and begins pursuing a Chevrolet Malibu that’s wanted for a $20,000 bounty. However, things become more complicated when Estevez learns that an alien entity is seemingly hidden in the car’s trunk. Alex Cox’s comedy is regarded as a quintessential 1980s cult classic, and pointedly takes aim at the Reagan administration’s conservative domestic and foreign policies.
