Gregg Araki’s Teen Apocalypse Trilogy

Thursday, September 19, 2024

The gorgeously restored Teen Apocalypse trilogy returns to IFC Center for one night only, with star James Duval in person for all three screenings. New Queer Cinema pioneer Gregg Araki made one of the great landmarks of the 90s indie movement with these three films about longing, alienation and rebellion. Boldly stylized, influenced by punk and Godard, Araki’s provocative odes to lost youth have only grown more influential over the last three decades, despite being difficult to screen. Presented in digital restorations overseen by the filmmaker himself, the trilogy is back on the big screen where it belongs, looking and sounding better than ever.

Individual tickets are available for each of the three films at the links below, or get a special discounted Teen Apocalypse Trilogy ticket, good for all three screenings, for $45/$33 IFC Center members.
