Every generation seems to have their coming-of-age film that Gets It. For the ‘80s kids, it was River’s Edge. A suburban hesher kills his girlfriend and shows his friends (including Keanu Reeves and Crispin Glover) her discarded body. Poorly equipped to deal by their ‘70s-hangover upbringings, they react mostly by not reacting at all. Dennis Hopper out-Dennis Hoppers himself. -LG
