I was surprised that someone made such a dark high school movie in 1989 (the original ending was darker and was denied by the producer), and I still feel that no youth movie has a ridiculous and terrifying plot like it. There are connotations that are worth thinking about. At the same time, the depiction of the young people's mentality is extremely accurate. It is not as warm and affectionate as THE BREAKFAST CLUB, but it is just as direct. At first, it was the usual routine of Bully in ordinary high school, but slowly got out of control to a terrifying murder. For Veronica, JD changed from a rebellious prince to a terrible lunatic. Every time JD kills, he pretends to be suicide and has never been dismantled. Those funeral scenes make people wonder whether they should laugh or be sad (these few paragraphs deliberately exaggerate a strong black humor, but there is a sense of despair) . It used to be weird why the Miren REMAKE movie, I realized after watching it, even in today’s eyes, it is still an extreme and cruel movie. Wanting to REMAKE it requires courage and talent, not simple. Haolaiwu assembly line can be done.

The movie was filmed in 1989, so most of the people in the dress and makeup are rustic and sweaty, especially the girls’ thick shoulder pads and blood-red lips... But Christian Slater is really handsome in it, standing there. , His rebellious temperament is ready to come out, and JD's crazy and abnormal character has a lot of room for him to play, so it is natural that he is the most dazzling person in the whole movie. For MM, he belongs to the kind of man who knows the danger but can't help being attracted to him. It fits some MM's romantic fantasy (for example, when depressed, an SG comes in through your window...) of course. Head, it’s not so romantic~~ But no matter what, JD’s unreasonable madness and anti-socialism are his charms~~ The endings of such people in and out of the play are generally the same. , Died in a way exactly like his own character.
