MCT:June 16, 2008The 90s! Like a teen comedy, but really twisted, on dope, violent, sex-filled, offensive, deviant. Just like it should be. Yeah.

Strange little film that feels like a bucket of cold water almost refreshing...it is bizzare, naughtyand has its own language. The seriousness of the film does not forget to remind the viewer of the Apocolypse that is coming or maybe the end of days is already here displayed in this tragic and violent love triangle. Araki definitely has an eye for scenery, location and cameos...

MCT:May 18, 2008How much did I not like this movie? The phrase, crime against humanity comes to mind. I would rather be waterboarded at Gitmo than have to sit through this one again. Yikes.

MCT:February 21, 2008disturbing, nasty, and funny at times, this movie shakes your nerves and rattles your senses in this intense film directed by gregg araki.

I love this movie... dark, smart, perverse, hilarious, and disturbing. Greg Araki is known for making boy-on-boy love movies and this was labeled a 'heterosexual' film. There's enough gay here to turn off some staunch homophobes, but if you can stomach Brokeback Mountain - this is less gay than that.
This movie sums up 90s post-Ritalin era youth angst. It's rock and roll and bullets and gasoline. Parker P makes one of her most memorable appearances.
Doom Generation is one of my favorite flicks... it's like an over-the-top Japanese movie made in the USA. They don't make em like this anymore... some might say this is a good thing. -
MCT:December 9, 2007A movie that comes off as too edgy...edgy for the sake of shock value that becomes numbing and predictable after a while.. plottless crap.
-
MCT:December 8, 2007The great thing about Gregg Araki's films (not all of which I've seen yet) is that you never know what you're gonna get exactly. Could be shocking, funny, disturbing, thought provoking, etc. and this film doesn;t disappoint.
"A heterosexual film by Gregg Araki" probably should have been called a mostly heterosexual film.
"Gimme your finger...now, stick it up my ass"
And Rose McGowan's character was so classic, of the time period and of that mindset.
As always, Araki's not for everyone. Some moght see The Doom Generation as pointless. But for those who like his work, you'll like this as well. -

Cheesy, sleezy and gory. Rose McGowan still manages to badly act, but James Duval is really endearing somehow. It's worth the watch..but don't get too invested.

One of the tonally weirdest and and captivating movies I´ve seen, there is lots of sexual tension in this one also, descending into a disturbing end. Watch for weird out cameos from Nicky Katt and Parker Posey.

this is one i grew up showing people and shocking the hell out of them with...brilliant in all its cheesy and sleazy glory

I like to imagine the writer(s) of thi s movie giving high-fives after every "witty" line these characters uttered. I was also torn between whether I hated this movie or not. Turns out it's cheesy enough to like. It felt like David Lynch and John Waters combined. But not as good.

most of Araki's movies are sooooo terrible that they are unwatchable.... but i really enjoyed this one!

For some reason I loved this movie as a teenager. On repeat viewing a decade later, it just looks like a bunch of stupid kids being egocentric brats. Lots of pointless violence and shagging, but not much else. Love Araki's work, but this was pretty stupid.

Why did I give this movie one star? Because negative stars was not an option. I like shock films. I used to be heavily into the industrial grunge scene (which this film thinks it mimics). I enjoy films that will take it over the edge in all capacities...not a prude here, BUT COME ON! With Rose McGowan playing (?) the over the top, nihilist, wannabe, paired up with her Bill and Ted clone boyfriend who has the IQ ten points lower than a styrofoam ball and a Dark Star poser all running around doing....NOTHING (except each other and anybody else)... You might think, "Well, there is sure to be some funny or witty dialogue." Ummm...No...no there isn't. Think of every expletive imaginable...there is your dialogue for a full 1.5 hours. Think of every act of violence from sexual violence to limbs flying...there is your action. Think of the amount of light emitting from a black hole...there you have your plot. I have passed kidney stones with more presence of mind than this film. THE ONLY redeeming feature is the soundtrack. It has Nine Inch Nails, Front 242, and Verve to name a few. My suggestion...buy the soundtrack and skip the film or risk being angered by never being able to regain that 1.5 hours of your life again that you took to watch this film.

i dunno why, but i absolutely love this movie. its strange, odd, and gruesome, but theres just something about it...
-
MCT:June 8, 2007This is quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. I had heard so many people say it was a great example of indie filmmaking. They were wrong.
