The Living End is a 1992 American road comedy-drama film written and directed by Gregg Araki. It stars Craig Gilmore and Mike Dytri as two HIV-positive young gay men who meet by chance and embark on a road trip after one of them kills a police office. Described by some critics as a "gay Thelma & Louise", the film is an early entry in the New Queer Cinema genre. The Living End was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize Dramatic at the 1992 Sundance Film Festival.
