The Doom Generation

While two girls at once is every guy's fantasy, the two-boys-and-a-girl variety of threeway is a hard sell for the average guy. There is the danger of accidental 'gay' contact or letting your male territorial / jealous instincts get the better of you. Even if you're not 'into that sort of thing', Greg Araki and his awesome cast make the two-blokes threeway into a tantalising promise. It also features some of the most ridiculous cartoonish violence ever captured on screen and numerous quotables from Rose McGowan like: "You're just a life support system for a cock". Brilliant.
