"Ever feel like reality is more twisted than dreams?"


The Doom Generation (1995)
Second in Gregg Araki's Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy (which includes Totally Fucked Up and Nowhere), it's exactly what it sounds like--a gory semi-accidental murder, menage a trois on the run, more campy violence, all set in a dark, rotting Los Angeles. Though the acting seems comically forced at times, the film is visually striking. Amy Blue and her abrasive attitude, foul mouth, and fashion sense. Shy and idealistic Jordan White and the baffling X.

A wild food munchin, movie watchin blogger appears

Here I will be mostly raving about my love and admiration for feasts on screen.
Whether they are there for aesthetics, plot advancement, or just director's whims, I'll strive to record it all. There might be a life post here and there too.

I've just graduated from high school (a half-hearted "go c/o 2013!") so I thought this summer of nothingness would be a good starting point. This isn't my first attempt at blogspot, but it'll take time to get back in the rhythm of blogging if ya know what I mean.


And so here we are.
