Product Description :
It made overnight stars of Winona Ryder and Christian Slater,shocked uncool film critics everywhere and became oneof the biggest cult classics of the ʻ80s. Twenty years later, HEATHERS remains the only brilliantly black comedy about peer pressure, malicious croquet and having abrain tumor for breakfast. At Westerburg High where cliques rule, jerk jocks dominate and the most popular girls are all named Heather, itʼs going to take a Veronica (Ryder) and the mysterious and possibly psychotic new kid J.D. (Slater) to give teen angst a body count. Shannen Doherty co-stars in the most cruelly hilarious high school movie ever made,featuring a new, high quality transfer. The extreme always seems to make an impression: Heathers is back like youʼve never seen or heard it before!
Amazon.com essential video:
This dark comedy from 1989 was a good showcase for Winona Ryder, playing a high school girl brought into a clique of bitchy classmates (all named Heather), and Christian Slater, doing his early Jack Nicholson thing. While Ryder's character mulls over the consequences of giving up one set of friends for another, her association with a new boy (Slater) in school turns out to have deadly consequences. Director Michael Lehmann turned this unusual film into something more than another teen-death flick. There is real wit and sharp satire afoot, and the very fusion of horror and comedy is provocative in itself. Heathers remains a kind of benchmark in contemporary cinema for bringing surreal intelligence into Hollywood films. --Tom Keogh

This movie is awesome! It's such a classic in that without it, many movies would not have been thought of and made.

If you were ever into any of the 80's movies, this is a must have. Slater gives a dynamite performance and Rider is still stuck on Beetlejuice.

I would drink muddy water, sleep in a hollow log, and endure the chicken-baking heat of the Libyan Sahara; just to look into Winona Ryder's eyes for one minute; and since I've quoted the Father of Country Music already, I might as well do it again: this cinematic seductress has got ORBS DE LUXE "could knock a groundhog cold" and I don't care if she did shoplift. Actually I do; we're a Nation of Laws, aren't ... Read More

This is one of the most original movies I have ever seen. Amongst the teen angst films, and there have been a lot of them, none of them touch Heathers. In every way, it is a perfect black comedy.
Some people will be upset that the new edition doesnt offer much in the way of new material. Ok, thats fine, but I lost my old Heathers DVD (or someone borrowed it permanently) and I was going to get a new one anyways. So the release of this turned out to be perfect timing.
The dvd looks and ... Read More

It is true that this new edition of Heathers only contains one new, additional documentary. But is that a bad thing? Especially when one considers that Heathers is bar-none one of the greatest black comedies and that the last DVD release came out 7 years ago.. frankly, i am pleased. In an age where many DVDs are being re-released with new packaging and no new features, i congratulate Anchor Bay for going one step further. Anchor Bay pulled the same thing last month with Dario Argento's Tenebre and ... Read More
