Mean Girls Before Mean Girls: Heathers (1988) | The VHS Club – Ep 123
Episode 123
Friday, 13 March, 2026
Welcome back to The VHS Club! This week, Katie and Nat are diving into one of the darkest and most iconic teen comedies of the late 80s: Heathers.Long before Mean Girls, this movie took high school cliques, popularity politics, and teenage angst and turned the dial all the way up to eleven. With razor-sharp dialogue, unforgettable one-liners, and a pitch-black sense of humor, Heathers became a cult classic that still feels surprisingly bold today.Starring Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, and Shannen Doherty, the film follows Veronica Sawyer as she navigates the dangerously glamorous social hierarchy of Westerburg High and a mysterious new boyfriend who has some very extreme ideas about solving the school’s popularity problem.Join us as we:💄 Break down the Heathers as the original mean girl clique🖤 Talk about the movie’s famously dark humor and controversial themes📼 Explore how this box office underperformer became a massive cult classic🎬 Discuss the performances, the fashion, and the endlessly quotable dialogueDid this movie define your teenage years… or did you discover it later as a cult classic?Grab your scrunchies, shoulder pads, and a Slurpee and join us for another trip back to the video store.--Tonight’s movie includes themes of suicide.
