Review

Never has a title more aptly fit its film. A creative void by all concerned has made this limp attempt to be the Easy Rider of the '80s alienated teen pic nothing more than a sad curiousity piece. Purging the ennui, drug taking and bisexuality of the novel for cheap moralistic posturing, the film is almost an antithesis of the Bret Easton Ellis best-seller. Downey is the only cast member with an active pulse while McCarthy and Gertz listlessly cruise the highways of L.A. as zombies in search of motivation, direction and characterization.
