  DVD Review - Heathers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
We all knew people like the Heathers in high school and to see them get their come-uppance is a blast (so to speak).
Red equals power, as red Heather is the leader until she dies and then green Heather takes the reins and begins to wear red.
Yellow Heather appears to be afraid of standing up to red Heather and facing the world as an individual.

 'Heathers'
Heathers" is not pretty in pink, all pompoms and puppy love, but bodacious in fl, chalkboard noir, the dark side of the wonder years.
Caught somewhere between the numbing amorality of "River's Edge" and the heartfelt sap of John Hughes, "Heathers" chides the pursuit of popularity as it tackles the thornier topic of teen-age suicide.
"Heathers" is about the loss of a deeper innocence, an internal passage made without the aid of oblivious parents, idiotic faculty or babbling ministers.

 iFMagazine.com Reviews - Heathers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
And while some of the deplorable events of the Columbine shooting are eerily predated in HEATHERS, in the end the film is simply a wise-ass commentary on teenage angst while the murders which occurred in Littleton and elsewhere in the recent past are real-life enigmas of modern society.
HEATHERS is one of those films that I remembered enjoying much more the first time I saw it.
This widescreen DVD has chapter selections, the theatrical trailer, and a “featurette”, which in actuality is a compilation of three minutes of interviews with Ryder and Slater circa 1988, a different trailer, and a ten minute scene from the film.

I approach "Heathers" as a traveler in an unknown country, one who does not speak the language or know the customs and can judge the natives only by taking them at their word.
What sets "Heathers" apart from less intelligent teenage movies is that it has a point of view toward this subject matter - a bleak, macabre and bitingly satirical one.
The underlying dynamic in "Heathers" comes out of movies like "Bonnie and Clyde," where the lovers back into crime almost absentmindedly, using it as a backdrop for the truly important things in their lives.

And it wasn't only the target audience that was stirred by Heathers; the film's derisive, accusatory and violent aspects made it topical amongst oldsters too - those who'd been teen-aged around the time Ronald Reagan was toting his six shooter...
When Heathers was released, in 1988, it caused consternation amongst old people (anyone aged over twenty six and a half) - some of whom claimed that the film was 'dangerous'.
Heathers does point to social divisions and psychological pathology endemic to high schools of the 1980s, and it seems likely that some people would be irritated by an untactful critique of school culture and youth consumerism - especially one deployed as a bitchy, dark-side comedy...

For the rest of us, HEATHERS is so accurate that it will make you wince in its portrait of unthinking cruelty: the meanness of the up-scale cliques and brainless jocks, the ridiculed good kids, the savage assaults on the unpopular ones.
With "Heathers" we follow the misadventures of Veronica (Winona Ryder) as she and her partner in crime Jason Dead (Christian Slater projecting an image of James Dean but whose speech patterns were downright Nicholsonian) take their Scorched Earth policy through an Ohio high school.
Early on Veronica tries to fit in with the Heathers, a mean girls type clique that supposedly are the envy of the entire school.

 Heathers (1989)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
There is hardly a doubt in my mind that Heathers is one of the best films of the 1980s, if not included in a list that names all the essential films of movidedom.
The three other members (appropriatley named Heather and identified by their last names 'Duke', hobbies 'Cheerleader', and position '#1') are the dominant members of the school and take pride and joy in other's suffering.
Although both Lehman and Waters would never match their previous success (they were actually quite bad after Heathers) this film proves that they did at one time have something to offer the world of cinema.

 "Heathers" by Nick Burns
A third Heather (Heather McNamara/ Lisanne Falk) tries to kill herself but is stopped by Veronica, who asks, "If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you?" Answers Heather: "Probably." But this Heather soon cheers up and eventually becomes a cheerleader.
Meanwhile, Heather, Heather, and Heather, dressed in red, green, and yellow respectively, are only interested in their social standing in the school pecking order.
The distinction that HEATHERS offers is the distinction of distance from the very problems that youth subculture constantly battles; spectators are united in recognizing (and laughing at) images and conspicuous consumption.

 Heathers against Howard - The Boston Globe
The term "Heather" is apparently derived from the 1989 movie of that title starring Winona Ryder as a high-schooler oppressed by a clique of alpha females, all named Heather.
In 2003, along with the more descriptive "Beltway Heathers," the term was frequently used online -- by the popular political blogger Atrios and Slate.com's Mickey Kaus, for example -- to castigate members of the Washington press corps, not for being anti-Dean but for being cliquish.
Republican National Committee spokeswoman Heather Layman recently accused Dean of hypocrisy for taking Dick Cheney to task for holding secret energy policy meetings when he did the same as governor of Vermont.

 Heathers DVD Review at The Z Review UK DVD reviews
Desperate to be one of the most popular girls in High School, Veronica (Ryder) aligns herself with the three Heathers (Doherty, Falk and Walker) and forgets about all her friends.
The performance match their interesting characters but without a substantial back-story for each character, neither of them are rounded enough to really care about either of the characters.
Heathers has acquired cult status in the teen movie market but when you watch it in the present climate, the film could be slightly too underdeveloped and gratuitous to be released now.
