In between my regular doses of slashers, one movie which I couldn’t get enough of growing up was Heathers, Michael Lehmann’s 1988 black comedy that saw two outsiders taking revenge on the bullies of the high school by offing them and then making it look like a suicide.
At the time of its release, Christian Slater was cooler-than-cool and Winona Ryder was hot as hell, and the two together were dynamite on screen. Boasting as much teen killing as any slasher, Heathers was deeply irresponsible and extremely cynical, yet it seemed exactly what young audiences needed after years of sugar-coated John Hughes flicks.
