The breakthrough feature of experimental filmmaker Gregg Araki, The Living End also marked a seminal moment in the New Queer Cinema movement of the 1990s. A startling synthesis of thriller, love story, comedy and road movie, it's a consciously political and uncompromising work that confronts mainstream America's fear of AIDs. Luke (Mike Dytri) is a rootless hustler who's determined to live fast, die young, and make a beautiful corpse, while Jon (Craig Gilmore) is a freelance writer whose life and stability are devastated when he finds out he's HIV positive. They meet by chance (or is it fate?), and when Luke kills a cop, they take to the road, embarking on a wild odyssey with devastating consequences. Peppered with film references, specifically to other movies featuring couples on the run and powered by a soundtrack heavy on industrial music, The Living End is propelled by rage and indignation.
Having inherited a huge cattle ranch from his late father Will Keough (Fred MacMurray) wants nothing more than to tend to his work and live in peace but this is made impossible by the tense situation in his own household. Will's two younger brothers Bless (Jeffrey Hunter) and Hade (Dean Stockwell) are as different as night and day: convinced that he was responsible for the death of his father Bless refuses to use a gun and is thus branded a coward. Conversely Hade is wild and reckless literally an accident waiting to happen. Exacerbating the situation is the brothers' grim and merciless mother (Josephine Hutchinson) who has instilled most of Bless' guilt feelings and Will's sweetheart Aud Niven (Janice Rule) who finds herself drawn to the sensitive Bless. Ultimately there will have to be a showdown...but who among the Keogh siblings will survive?
Dreamy young Joe does not wish to go to the Wild West to become a cowboy using guns and fighting. But by his father's wish he leaves home to learn this different way of life but none of it appeals to him until he is forced to defend himself and his love for the rancher's daughter.
