On this day in 1988, NEW WORLD PICTURES released HEATHERS. Directed by MICHAEL LEHMANN from a script by DANIEL WATERS, HEATHERS is one of the best teen-angst movies ever. WINONA RYDER plays an only half-invested pop princess who meets up with an edgy outsider (CHRISTIAN SLATER) who takes her to the dark side. Great imagery and performances make this a must-see.
