The Doom Generation

Directed by Gregg Araki

Jordan White and Amy Blue, two troubled teens, pick up an adolescent drifter, Xavier Red. Together, the they embark on a journey through an America of psychos and quickie marts.
The Doom Generation is Gregg Araki at his most abrasive and stylish, turning a road trip into a violent, nihilistic fantasy about sex, identity and American disaffection. The film is intentionally excessive, but its attitude, visuals and queer punk energy made it a defining work of 1990s New Queer Cinema.
