Heathers, 1989, Cult Comedy, 103 min ***** First time watching, Heathers, and man have I been missing out. This is absolutely hilarious and by today’s standards, probably totally inappropriate. But, if you actually have a sense of irony, can think for yourself, and can see beyond the immediately obvious, then this is the movie for you. A dark satire that prefigured the celebrity culture that exists today, Heathers, is for all those who were bullied, marginalised and ignored in their middle school/high school years. But it is a movie to be appreciated more and is more appropriate, for adults to view. Among a great cast, Winona Ryder and Christian Slater are stand outs as the leads. Props to Daniel Waters for the great script and to Michael Lehmann for directing duties. Plot: A young woman sick of the popular girls that influence her life gets revenge when she inadvertently hooks up with a sociopath. Viewed on DVD. Reviewed November 2020.
