Heathers (1988)

These dark times call for dark movies, and '80s comedies didn't get any darker than "Heathers." The Winona Ryder and Christian Slater box office flop found a way to laugh at  teenage suicide, bulimia, date rape, homosexuality, religion, hypocrisy, cynicism, sex and murder in a way that made Big D blush.

Gene Lyons and Ashley Schlafly join Shat The Movies to relive their high school years, forced emotional outpourings, and Shannen Doherty's face on this episode commissioned by longtime listener Dan Fletcher and spooky podcaster Carmelita Valdez McKoy.  

How did Stanley Kubrick impact "Heathers"? Was the pep rally scene inspiration for "Smells Like Teen Spirit"? Why did young Ashley own a monocle? And most importantly: Is Heathers a truly groundbreaking film or just a cult classic. Find out in this week's "Shat The Movies."
