poignant indie drama about queer (not just LGBTQ queer) youth on a journey. I have thought about this movie many times over the years, a sure sign of its power. The fact that stars like Karen Black and John Doe make appearances is extra!

If you ignore the stupidity and the predictable clichés that this film puts across, it's actually pretty enjoyable.

Aside from some plot holes and lack of Stevie Nicks songs in a movie that worships her (both of which can be chalked up to being a low-budget indie film), this is an incredibly enjoyable movie. It's one of the few movies I know that explores the relationship between a gay man and his female best friend and real life problems that come up. Could it have been improved with a bigger budget and more time? Definitely! But as it is, it's a tiny indie gem, and it shows us Sarah Rue's amazing rack, which is a big deal in itself!

I thought this movie was beautifully told about misfits and the teenage goth culture, especially as this was the first culture as a teenager I became fixated upon, therefore I could relate a lot. Both characters are loveable and makes me smile throughout

75% "Look granny, I am a pretty girl, ok? Big and beautiful, haven't you heard? And for the record, I don't give a flying fuck or rolling rim job, what you or anyone else thinks of me. Your dismissed."-Gypsy Vale (Sara Rue) I swear I saw some slimfast in front of Ms. Rue, Jenny would be pissed, possible lawsuit. The film is a much tamer version of THE DOOM GENERATION. "I think I'm past my watward-sex-fag-hag-test-fuck phase...but thanks for the offer. It's just, been there done that."-Gypsy Sara "Earth Girl" Rue rocks.

probably would've liked this better if I was a big fan of stevie nicks or into the goth scene.

Nothing new here really, a road trip with the ultimate aim of performing at the 'Night of a Thousand Stevie Nicks's ' - heaven help us if there is really such a thing! There are gay goths, runaway Amish and Karen Black singing in a redneck bar! Watch only if you don't have a better option.

This is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. And I even like Sara Rue and the Cure and gothy gay boys. :P

I really enjoyed this movie thought it was funny and interesting and had a pretty good story line.

what a movie about a Goddess and her Goth gay boy..... love this onemo

Really enjoyed this film, another cult classic that a few people who like and acknowledge different, as well as the art factor, and costumes in this film.

This movie has such a realistic feel, and despite the fact that the two main characters are labeled "freaks," it's so easy to relate to them and everything they're going through. I've never seen Sara Rue in anything before, but I will definitely be looking for more from her, since she was incredible in this role. I knew next to nothing about this movie or anyone in it, but I'm really glad I watched it. This is a great film.

I was very disappointed in this movie - perhaps my expectations were too high. I had meant to see this shortly after its release adn never got around to it. I'm a big Sara Rue Fan and she was pretty good. The writing just fell flat for me and I generally like Todd Stephens work. I found the entire Karen Black scene boring and a poor attempt at "clever" casting. Kett Turton was marvelous in his role but his character could not save an otherwise lifeless movie. Finally, the ending felt rushed. I'm not suggesting that a film has to have happy ending to be good - quite the contrary but it should at least have some kind of ending. My partner and I both looked at each other when the credits rolled and said "that's it?"

While there are multiple indie films with very similar plots/themes, this was still rather touching and fun to watch.

Wonderful movie about a young woman's coming of age and her adorably gay goth best friend.

i fucking love sara rue!

Not bad, but expected more from this.

I vaguely remember seeing this before, but for the life of me I can't remember the circumstances except that it might have been following a bad breakup from a relationship too long gone. And there's symmetry for me with that in this film; I felt the pain of Gypsy's and Clive's loss of friendship. In many ways, it swept me right back to 1989 and Salem, Oregon, where I'd landed after I got out of the Army. I lived one door over and one floor up, right across a narrow alley from The Beanery, the coffee shop that defined Goth ground zero for Salem, a short 2 blocks to the state capitol, and right in the crosshairs of downtown. Of course there was a Stevie Nicks chick and every twinky gay boy I knew was Robert Smith redux...many "straight" ones too, although I don't think anyone in that time, in that place, was straight. I really like this movie. It has heart and depth and soul and it moved me in a way that rarely happens anymore. The casting was so good; I KNEW this Gypsy, and I KNEW this Clive. Gypsy was Scott's friend Penny who would drive us around the Willamette Valley while we dropped acid and stared at the stars. Clive was the cute little Goth boy with the actual girlfriend - both of whom I made out with in a stairwell at a party over the bakery in downtown Salem. I knew Troy too, but years later. He was my friend Joel, the fratboy. Straight by day, and sexually ambiguous by night. When you feel this at home with the cast of a film, you know you loved it.

If you enjoy subculture issues and the Gay freind straight friend bonds this is your movie.

Interesting blending of road movie and coming of age story. Sara Rue shines in her portrait of a troubled goth girl who wants to become a singer. Drama ensures and at the end you just watched a wonderful little film.
