After using the term, and constantly referring to the personality type, it was time for me to watch Heathers.
I have to admit, Heathers was not what I expected! I was expecting just another teen drama that had famous actors in it, so was remembered twenty years later. I was so wrong!
This movie is about a group of snobby girls three of which are named Heather, the other Veronica. They torment everybody, but are still worshiped. Veronica decides she doesn’t like it. She starts to rebel against her own group, when she gets a psychotic boyfriend whoshe groups up with to murder and make it look suicidal. After the main Heather, and two football players “commit suicide” the role of snobby leader just gets handed off to another Heather.
The movie moves along well because of it’s great script. It features familiar quotes like:
- If you were happy every day of your life you wouldn’t be a human being. You’d be a game-show host.
- You think I’ll drink it just because you call me chicken…? Just gimmie the cup, jerk.
- I love my dead gay son.
- It’s so great to be able to talk to a girl and not have to ask “What’s your major?”. I hate that. So, when you go to college, what subjects do you think you’ll study?
- This may seem like a really stupid question…
There are no stupid questions.
You inherit 5 million dollars the same day aliens land on the earth and say they’re going to blow it up in 2 days. What do you do?
That’s the stupidest question I’ve ever heard.
- Chaos killed the dinosaurs, darling.
I love those quotes!
Follow the high school brats in their movie that not only serves as entertainment, but features life lessons.
