I was reading an excellent article today about Heathers and I realized that I somehow haven't expressed my adoration for the film, Heathers in blog form yet. (If you love Heathers, you'll love the article. If you've never seen it, read the article and let it convince you to.)
Basically, if you aren't familiar with the film, it is the world's most perfect teen comedy. Forget Mean Girls, forget Clueless, forget anything else you're fond of. I love a lot of teen movies, but nothing compares to Heathers. I've heard it referred to as Mean Girls with murder, which does seem pretty accurate. But on top of that you have the impeccable 80's fashions, a lot of crazy thanks to Winona Ryder, a young Shannen Doherty, plenty of wit, and just as many great one liners as your previous favorites. It'll be hard for you not to be throwing out quotes your friends won't understand after seeing this one.
It's the kind of film that I'm always forcing friends to watch because I don't quite think I can express the awesomeness in words. If you are ever in the mood for a dark comedy, look no further. (Speaking of dark comedies featuring former Beverly Hills, 90210 cast members, check out House of Yes on Netflix too.)
I could probably drone on about the film forever, instead I'll just leave you with one of my favorite lines,
"Did you have a brain tumor for breakfast? First you ask if you can be red, knowing that I'm always red."
