The Doom Generation

Gregg Araki is really on fire here. The script is fucking hilarious. Rose McGowan brings the character of Amy to life is in such an amazing way. She has countless phenomenal lines to deliver and really steps up. The film has that weird surreal aspect and atmosphere that I just cant get enough of. As you watch Gregg Araki’s films get a more of a budget he gets to do more interesting stuff with the set design. They have some incredibly fun hotel rooms here. James Duval and Jonathon Schaech are also fucking incredible and Jordan and Xavier. The entire film is just edging the audience. You’re waiting for them to get together the entire time. Any they almost do… until nazi’s come and ruin all the fun. It was such an amazing experience being able to go see this on the big screen in crisp 4k with a pretty sold out audience. I love that all these years later Gregg Araki has amassed a pretty substantial cult following of film queers. He has such a unique style. His movies are all so inspiring. They are very low budget in the coolest way. You watch these movies and think that making a great film doesn’t require millions and millions of dollars. You just need a vision, which Araki clearly has, and a bunch of people to back you up. I’m determined to make his next feature, I Want Your Sex, a big hit. I just fucking adore all his films especially The Living End - Mysterious Skin. Truly an insane run by an incredibly talented filmmaker. Please everyone watch his movies!!!
