After falling in with the ruthless clique known as the Heathers, Veronica meets the mysterious new student J.D. and things spiral into a deadly game of popularity, power, and revenge. With a thrilling score and biting humor, Heathers is a wildly entertaining and provocative look at teen angst and toxic conformity.
