    Have subjected Stepson to Heathers. STEPSON: I thought this was gonna be a normal teen movie… US: *rising hysterical laughter* STEPSON: And then, like, every turn went the wrong way. US: Pretty much. STEPSON: …anyway, this one and SNEAKERS are my favorites so far.

    Just watched Heathers with my 15yo, who says it's more of a horror movie to them than The Lost Boys is because it's more upsetting. They are emphatically not a horror guy so it's interesting to hear how they define it.

    Tonight for my film students? HEATHERS (1988) followed by a Q&A with the one and only Daniel Waters... also it occurs to me that Anthony Bourdain's thoughts on 7/11 pizza are mirrored by JD's thoughts on convenience store hot dogs. Never noticed that before.

    I am about to watch a movie called Heathers which I am assuming is a movie featuring no more than two Heathers. Like three Heather's is inconceivable, that is simply one too many Heathers just for one movie.

Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes go head-to-head in this classic sci-fi/action blockbuster from Joel Silver, the producer of Die Hard and The Matrix. In 2032, arch criminal Simon Phoenix (Snipes) awakens from a 35-year deep freeze in CryoPrison to find a world where crime is almost non-existent – a serene utopia ripe for the taking. With the police no longer equipped to deal with his 90s-style…

    Rocky Horror was the first musical that I really, really liked and Tim Curry was super funny in it and had the most iconic lines. It was the first movie that got me really interested in other musicals like Repo and Heathers too. I’m going to miss Tim Curry.
