We've never seen Michael Lehmann’s Heathers (1988)… until now!

Join us as we watch Heathers for the very first time, share our honest reactions, and dive into one of the darkest and most influential teen comedies of the 1980s. From Winona Ryder’s iconic turn as Veronica Sawyer to Christian Slater’s explosive performance as J.D., we explore why Heathers became a cult classic—and why it still shocks and entertains decades later.

We break down:

• Razor-sharp dialogue and pitch-black humor

• Brutal satire of high school hierarchies and teen culture

• How Heathers subverted the teen movie formula

• Its influence on later coming-of-age stories

If you love cult classics, dark comedies, or first-time movie reactions, this episode is for you. Discover one of the most quoted, debated, and misunderstood teen films—and see why so many assume everyone has already seen it.
