gregg araki the doom generation be reminiscent of everything from my own private idaho to the river edge to true romance to the experimental film of pasolini and of warhol ( morrisey ) and as well a of richard kern . the film reveal it thematic message when the most innocent and selfless of it three main character ask the other and more self center and two if they ever think about the meaning of existence . dismiss the very question and they reveal to the questioner an answer of sort and one which suggest that we each create a meaning for ourselves and and be all existentially alone a we do so . while offer u a rather slight story of a pair of teen lover on the road who encounter a slightly old bisexual who become their nemesis and companion and lover and protector and the doom generation offer a great deal of visual style and wit and and some genuine moment of suspense . in fact and the film gory and discomforting climactic scene be perhaps the artistic highlight and suggest some real filmaking talent by writer or director gregg araki . this be probably not everyone cup of tea and but be worth a look for those who like a film which challenge them to react to strong imagery and who do not mind transgressive depiction .
