Cult classic Heathers turns 26! This high school drama is noted as the ‘original Mean Girls‘, but it’s far from your average teen rom-com.

The cult classic Heathers is celebrating its 26th birthday today! This high school drama is perhaps one of the most quotable films and noted as the ‘original Mean Girls‘ but it’s a far cry from your average teen rom-com. Wiona Ryder plays a bitter, slightly twisted but ‘golden hearted’ Veronica who is set amongst the Heathers – a trio of teenage terrors on a rampage, throwing their beauty and bad vibes around the school. Poor misunderstood Veronica is relatively miserable until the ultimate bad boy, J.D makes an appearance, alongside a handgun. J.D has a flair for first impressions and Veronica is hooked straight away, this devilish duo with their pessimistic and sarcastic tendencies hit it off like a house on fire. With a fast accumulating body count, of course, it ends in flames. To celebrate this tragic love story we look at some of the most memorable, outrageous and quotable quotes.

I GUESS I PICKED THE WRONG TIME TO BE A HUMAM BEING

FUCK ME GENTLY WITH A CHAINSAW. DO I LOOK LIKE MOTHER TERESA?

IF YOU WERE HAPPY EVERY DAY OF YOUR LIFE YOU WOULDN’T BE A HUMAN BEING. YOU’D BE A GAME-SHOW HOST

REAL LIFE SUCKS LOSERS DRY. IF YOU WANNA FUCK WITH THE EAGLES, YOU HAVE TO LEARN TO FLY

I JUST KILLED MY BEST FRIEND. AND YOUR WORST ENEMY. SAME DIFFERENCE.

VERONICA, YOU LOOK LIKE HELL. YEAH? I JUST GOT BACK
