(Anchor Day, $19.97)

This dark comedy about teen suicide revealed “how awful high school really is,” said The Sacramento Bee. Heathers “peeled back the layers of social hierarchy” and laughed bitterly at the pageant of teen angst. The DVD offers a “Return to Westerberg High” documentary and the original ending.
