Movie Reviews of The Living End: Remixed and Remastered
Movie Review: As good as I remember it
Summary: 4 Stars
It had been many years since I saw this film in its original theatrical release. It was as good as I remember, and the performances were compelling in a way that's gotten lost in most current gay cinema. Cinema verite for the pink screen. The tension between the two characters drives this movie along at full force and the actors due both justice. While I like Mysterious Skin a lot, and it has better production values as a later effort from Gregg Araki, The Living End still packs the most wallup in a gay film. Fantastic all over again.
Summary of The Living End: Remixed and Remastered
Gregg Araki's acclaimed Outlaw Couple romance has been totally revamped in THE LIVING END:REMIXED AND REMASTERED. This take-no-prisoners story of two HIV-positive lovers on the run in 90's America is even more powerful and politically charged than ever. Featuring 5.1 Dolby Stereo sound, this new version has been personally remastered, re-color-timed and remixed by the director, Gregg Araki (MYSTERIOUS SKIN, TOTALLY F*** UP, THE DOOM GENERATION). Starring Mike Dytri, Craig Gilmore, Mark Finch, Mary Woronov, Darcy Marta, Scot Goetz, Johanna Went.Hard-core and unsentimental, this low-budget road movie/romance between two HIV-positive gay men manages to be bizarre, bitter, and intriguing. Figuring they have nothing to lose, Craig Gilmore and Mike Dytri hit the road as fugitives, where they act out bad-boy fantasies amid provocative conversations. Director Greg Araki, who also wrote the script, does a decent job of juggling black humor and bleak rage. It's a tough movie to watch, but nihilism rarely looks this good. Araki continued his bleak look at life with later films, The Doom Generation and Nowhere, both of which pander more obviously to self-involved Gen-Xers. --Rochelle O'Gorman
