The Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy | Adolescence is an interesting time. One minute you’re so angst-ridden, it feels like the world is going to end; the next, you’re too apathetic to give a fuck if it does. So it makes sense that indie filmmaker Gregg Araki dubbed his trio of coming-of-age flicks — Totally F***ed Up, The Doom Generation, and Nowhere — his “Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy.” Set in a psychedelic, grindhouse-inspired vision of LA, the trilogy is loaded with so-fucking-’90s ensemble casts (Rose McGowan! Parker Posey!), kinky sex, hyper-real violence, queer club kids, and house/shoegaze soundtracks that have us reliving the good ole dysfunctional days.
