Dir. Gregg Araki Starring Michael J. Anderson, Lucas Babin, and Molly Brenner
Director Gregg Araki describes this pilot episode of a never-realized television show, This is How the Worlds Ends (2000), as Twin Peaks for MTV. Dancing-midget rock fans transform into gun-wielding robbers. Things that are aren’t. Zombie, a narcoleptic, keeps waking up in bizarre situations. This is How the World Ends is a project that Araki never fully realized. Instead, this pilot stands as a fragment of what a miniseries like none other could have been.
