Heathers (1989) follows Veronica Sawyer (Winona Ryder), who has made significant compromises to maintain her status within the elite social circle at Westerburg High, known as the Heathers. As the sole member not bearing the name "Heather," Veronica faces constant pressure to conform, often suppressing her true values and intellect to fit in. She endures the daily humiliation of less popular students, all while feeling increasingly disenchanted with the superficial lifestyle of her peers. Veronica's life takes a dramatic turn when a mysterious and enigmatic newcomer, JD (Christian Slater), arrives. JD quickly discerns that Veronica is not genuinely aligned with the Heathers and becomes intrigued by her. When Veronica confides her frustrations and desires to JD, he takes her words to a deadly extreme, orchestrating a series of staged suicides that target the Heathers. Veronica is drawn into a dangerous game of manipulation and murder, realizing too late the deadly consequences of her words. As the Heathers continue to die, their iconic red scrunchies pass from one to another, symbolizing an unbreakable cycle of power and social dominance. Veronica must navigate this treacherous landscape, questioning how far the battle for popularity and control will go.
