Doom Generation, The
[DVD Info]



Amy Blue (Rose McGowan) and her boyfriend Jordan White (James Duval) are at a rave one night. Bored, they leave to have sex in the car at an abandoned drive-in. While there a fight breaks out on top of Amy's hood and one of the guys Xavier Red (Johnathon Schaech) jumps in their car and they speed away. After Xavier and Amy exchange some nasty words, Amy kicks him out of her car and leaves him on the side of the road. Jordan says he's hungry and they stop at the next quick-e-mart. When they accidentally leave their wallets in the car, the shop owner pulls out a shotgun and threatens them. Xavier comes to their rescue but in the end...the shopkeeper gets his head blown off. They all take off (after stealing cigs and cash) and decide to get out of town since they're fugitives. Everywhere they go, people keep mistaking Amy for someone who royally screwed them over (emotionally and otherwise) and it makes their situation a little worse as the body count starts to rise.



"Don't be a cornnut." ~Jordan.




Well...in a nutshell...the movie was fucked up. This movie, seriously, had absolutely no point to it. Rose McGowan was really cute in it (as always) and I loved how they dressed her in this movie. That...is all it had going for it. This was really just an excuse to see how much they could make Rose McGowan swear in an hour and a half as they possibly could. Then...they threw in sex. I almost threw up when Xavier watched Jordan and Amy have sex and then lick up his own cum. Ew. Why didn't they explain all the 666 references? Jordan was the slowest talking idiot I've ever seen. And what the fuck was up with those rednecks who cut off Jordan’s peen? "Want a dorito?" Gah! Even if you're a McGowan fan, I'd skip this. There are some interesting cameos by Margaret Cho and Skinny Puppy and a few others but they're so brief you don't even notice them. This was just terrible and pointless and the ending was just completely hopeless. I don't think there is any generation THAT jaded. What a waste of time even for someone who tries to see the good in all movies. Because of this, we rate this quickie:
