This movie is wrong in so many ways, but I can never seem to turn away from the screen if it is on.

Slater shows that even at a young age he could pull of a very complex role. Ryder is amazing and so is Dougherty.

This is one of my favorite movies! I think for its time it was pretty shocking, and I find it to be hilarious yet quite sad as well.

The Heathers are the darlings of Westerburg High, the "in" girls who hang out with the jocks, garnering the envy of all. But these ultra-snobby girls do what most 80's teens do, drink, party and make the oddballs feel bad. Veronica Sawyer (Winona Ryder) is on the edge of the group, drawn to their cool chic but turned off by their childish and mean-spirited pranks.

Pros: ...... Cons: ...... The Bottom Line: ...... Well, yeah, but, for sure, narly, FINISHED – that’s the best thing I can say about this movie. Certainly there had to be some social comment deemed from this movie but I’ll be kicked in the fanny if I can figure it out. Stay away from psycho guys in school?

As the only member of the group not named "Heather," Veronica has to work extra hard just to stay afloat. Going against her own morals and intelligence, Veronica succumbs to peer pressure on a daily basis, faking her delight in the humiliation of the school's less popular students. Bored of the frat parties and cow tipping so popular among her friends, Veronica's curiosity is peaked when a mysterious new guy named JD comes to town. The dark, brooding JD (Christian Slater at his best) observes Veronica among her pack in the lunchroom (where social hierarchy is most clearly displayed), concluding that Veronica is not a Heather at heart. When Veronica confides in JD that she hates her friends and wishes Heather #1 was dead, she never expects her words will have such dire consequences. Before she knows what's happening, JD is dragging Veronica on a killin...
