The Doom Generation (1995 ; 85 Brain Eaters) : A film produced, written, directed by Gregg Araki, which is his second film in a trilogy of films known as the Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy, the first being Totally Fucked Up and the last Nowhere. It was actually Araki's first movie to deal with a heterosexual relationship and is billed in the opening titles as "A Heterosexual Movie by Gregg Araki". The Film stars stars Rose McGowan, James Duval and Johnathon Schaech as the main characters. It also stars Dustin Nguyen, Margaret Cho, Parker Posey and a has a bunch of cameos from Heidi Fleiss, Christopher Knight, Perry Farrell, Amanda Bearse, Nicky Katt, Nivek Ogre and gay adult film stars Zak Spears and Rex Chandler. This film has a considerable cult following and critics often compare the film both favorably and unfavorably to Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers. I can honestly say that this is one of the greatest film from the 90's .
Teenage lovers Jordan White and Amy Blue pick up a handsome drifter named Xavier Red while driving home from a club. A late-night stop at a convenience store leaves the three on the run when Xavier accidentally kills the store's owner. As the trio journeys across small-town USA, they continue to get into violent situations due to people either claiming to be Amy's previous lovers or mistaking her for such. In all of this the three of them become involved with each other. The threesome embark on a sex and violence-filled journey through an America of psychos and quickiemarts.
Fun Fact : The gang of goons in the beginning of the movie is played by the Vancouver based industrial group, Skinny Puppy!
:Every time one of the characters buys something, the total comes to $6.66. The address of the first hotel they stay at is 666. Amy's combined SAT score is 666.
