The Doom Generation

A heterosexual film by Greg Araki! Campy, stylish, over the top gore, Heaven and Hell imagery, Rose McGowan’s perfect little chin dimple, homoerotic competition over a woman… this movie had it all. It’s a little silly but better for its silliness. The cool kid 90’s dialogue did not age well, but I couldn’t get enough of the visuals. Great sets, great costumes, great shots in almost every scene. And all the leads are gorgeous. They’re flat and a bit archetypal in terms of character, but they’re fun archetypes. It gets a little formulaic and repetitive in terms of plot, but what can I say? I loved what was being repeated.
