I'm going to make this review short. I adore this film. It's so funny and suprisingly violent. A young Winona Ryder and a young Christian Slater make the cutest pair.
The best part about this film is the entire thing is about these snoody prep kids, and watching this film is like bringing to life what I always secretly wished I could do to these types of kids in high school. (of course they were just fantasies, I'm not that cruel.)
I feel so bad for Winona's Veronica because she is so unhappy with the way her life is and then out of the blue this guy comes in who has the potential to turn things around for her. Of course she fell in love with J.D's charm, but he turns out he's such a bad guy.
This movie is also one where you have no idea what is going to happen next. J.D is SO unpredictable with what hes going to do, that when the plot is revealed your like 'WOW what a unique way to kill someone'.
Lastly this film holds some of the BEST movie quotes such as "Fuck me gentley with a chainsaw" and "Dear diary, my teen angst bullshit has a bodycount." as well as "Greetings and saluatations!". Overall this film is a funny and quirky teenage angst movie and possibly my favorite 80's film.
