Generation Wrecks (2021)
Set in the spring of 1994, the story follows two 11th graders, Stacy Snyder (Bridget McGarry) and Liz Castillo-Campbell (Victoria Leigh) who were best friends until the 7th grade when a mysterious event drove them apart. Stacy joined the popular crowd and Liz, who was outed publicly, fell in with the freaks and became a goth. After years of antagonizing each other, Stacy is moved to repair the friendship after Liz's little brother accidentally drowns. Stacy invites Liz to join her for a weekend getaway at her vacation home in the Poconos where they used to go when they were friends, but Liz insists she be able to bring her own misfit group of friends and acquaintances from the school's fringe groups with the intent to retaliate for years of misery caused by Stacy. Chaperoned by Stacy's older brother Brandon and his bubbly girlfriend, Jess, the eight high school Gen-Xers are confronted by the future, adulthood, and their own personal issues. They realize they share more than just feeling alienated and lost, and those friendships can be mended in the woods with a lot of music, games, and a little bit of love and weed.

    BEST FILM EVER!!

    This is the best work of cinema to come from the past several centuries. All of the actors were incredible and the level of quality from the production is not only visible but it is striking. I love this movie more than anything and I could watch it a million times. It's just the kind of film you cannot get tired of and from which you can learn something new at every revisit. This will go down as a cult classic. It is timely and relevant all while remaining light and fun. This movie struck a chord with me as well as people from older and younger generations. We needed a movie of this caliber. I love Generation Wrecks!

    Delightfully Vulnerable

    This film is important and a lot of fun. The ensemble of kids was fantastic and real. A wild ride that everyone can identify with. I loved every second.
