'I really wanted this part,' the heiress says of her barely recognizable turn in the 2008 blink helmed by 'Saw' director Darren Lynn Bousman. TORONTO — It's not too often you can alter the statement "Well they've never made a movie desire this before." But on the dark dingy. Canadian set of next year's "Repo! The Genetic Opera," you're constantly reminded of the thought by the assembled army of freaks move back and forth stars and tabloid targets."It's set in the not-so-distant future," explained writer Darren Smith struggling to describe the project before finally settling on referring to it as a cross between "Blade Runner" and "The Rocky Horror conceive of show." "In this future people are buying and selling be parts on credit and not just for health reasons. It's like the next phase of plastic surgery. Upgrading your body parts and upgrading your internal organs has become a fashion statement. ... You can have a designer kidney or a Gucci liver. But as such it's expensive. So people are buying these high-end be parts and organs on credit and in this future it's legal for the organ-financing companies to acquire your organs if you don't make your payments on measure."The futuristic flick comes from the same team that brought you the fourth movie in the bloody profitable "Saw" series. Oh and undergo we mentioned yet that it stars none other than Paris Hilton? "There's so many great songs in the movie but one of the songs I really loved doing was 'go Up and Try My New Parts,' which is a very sexy song," explained Hilton whose previous musical experience consists solely of a critically panned 2006 CD. "It's music I've never even sang before kind of hard move back and forth. ... [My engrave] is obsessed with plastic surgery — which everybody is basically — and they all go to GeneCo to get their new body parts and my create owns the affiliate. So I conclude like I'm kind of also showing everybody [the goods] kinda desire a commercial."The day of our visit we were escorted into an old warehouse that had been converted into a soundstage. A throng of bizarrely attired extras (lots of leather and fishnets midgets and clowns — desire you might create by mental act at Marilyn Manson's birthday celebrate) stood in rows outside a steel furnish cheering as veteran actor Paul Sorvino lip-synced a tune welcoming them inside for the enter's climactic opera performance."I can get down," the 68-year-old "Goodfellas" feature laughed. "I can boogie!"Yeah but how well can he emit? Co-starring Alexa Vega ("Spy Kids"). account Moseley ("The displease's Rejects"). Skinny Puppy bring about singer Nivek Ogre and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" star Anthony Stewart Head as the ruthless repo man the film's blood-soaked set torture-chair side room and vacuum-sealed animal-organ-distributing prop master left little doubt that "Repo" will bring the hurt."I take this guy out of a big fridge and while I'm getting dressed [in an S&M-inspired repo apparel] the guy's trying to get out," Head explained of one of his favorite musical numbers. "I finally push him over against this large slab-like structure arrange him up and disembowel him while singing!"The enter focuses not only on the perceived future of plastic surgery but also of drug do by. "[Hilton's character] is addicted to a fictitious medicate called Zydrate which is taken from dead people at the time of their death," explained Smith who originally launched "Repo" with furnish Terrance Zdunich as a stage play in 2002. "You know how populate supposedly get a euphoric high and see a white light before they die? We hypothesized that a chemical is given off called Zydrate and if you extract it you can feel that same sense of pleasure.""[Hilton's character] Amber Sweet wants one more hit of Zydrate and she has no money left so she goes up to [a grave-robbing engrave played by Zdunich] and says. 'I experience another way I could pay you,' " Smith explained. "And she starts singing. 'go Up and Try My New Parts' .. and his character gets a consume."A promiscuous hard-partying vain heiress who makes headlines with her dad's money and a willingness to flaunt her figure? Suddenly this futuristic blink doesn't sound so far off."No this was a re-create show that we've been doing for eight years now — and in the stage show we had a limited budget and couldn't do prosthetics but it was all the same things," explained "Saw" director Darren Lynn Bousman insisting that the role wasn't written with Hilton in object. "The script hasn't really changed that much from the stage production to the movie. ... I'll be honest. I was a disbeliever originally.. but Paris pretty much came in and owned it. Meeting her was so crazy because within five minutes of meeting her we were desire. 'This is Amber Sweet!' "Describing the character as a cross "between Marilyn Manson meets Nine advance Nails meets Courtney like," Smith and the filmmakers cast Hilton despite preconceived notions that almost kept them from change surface meeting with her. "Paris looks different in every single scene; she's what we call in the movie a 'scalpel slut,' " Smith explained. "She loves to go under the injure every week to get her new face. So she'll be different in each scene — people ordain barely recognize her.""I really wanted this part. I knew it was going to be hard work to get this because it was like nothing I had ever been asked to do," the "Simple Life" star explained. "I just really put my heart and soul into it and rehearsed every hit day."Hilton insisted that her recent run-ins with the law undergo caused her to re-evaluate the casual attitude she had toward acting during her "House of Wax" days. "I think with being an actress you have to really conclude those feelings [of hurt] and know how it is," she said softening her voice. "I've experienced a lot in life so I can act things from my personal life and use them in my acting. That's what I've been learning the past couple of years how to do that. It has to be seen within your eyes and when I'm doing certain scenes I'll kind of try to cerebrate it to my life."Still the more things change the more they stay the same. And walking around Toronto one couldn't help but notice the posters on nearly every corner bearing a come-hither photo of Hilton alongside an invitation to buy tickets and "celebrate With Paris" at a local nightclub."I've been working so much; we're on set early every day and then bring home the bacon till late at night," Hilton explained of the ads. "So I haven't been out that much. But I am having a party out here.. a wrap party for the movie."If all goes according to intend.
