Diet Cokeheads and Swatch Watchdogs, oh how I miss them so much. Uncle Creepy could sense that and decided to call in with this kickass exclusive straight from San Diego Comic-Con.
Anchor Bay is planning on releasing a collector's edition of Michael Lehmann's 1989 classic Heathers not only on Blu-ray but in a special Gym Locker case! The exact specs of this release will be revealed soon, along with an image of the packaging. If only they could find a way to package in Winona Ryder as well.
Heathers revolves around a group of beautiful high school elitists. The clique's less popular member mingles with the wrong guy, and suddenly suicides are the popular thing at school. Too bad the suicides aren't as genuine as they seem.

This week is something of a nostalgia trip with a period comedy, Freddie Prinze Jr. and a concert documentary about a group of men who, by all the laws of man and nature, should not still be alive and walking around.
"The Flight of the Red Balloon"
After being nominated for the Palme d'Or an incredible five times at Cannes, it's no wonder that director Hou Hsiao-hsien has become a Francophile. In his first film outside of Asia, the "Three Times" auteur directs the country's first lady of cinema, Juliette Binoche, in a story about an overburdened mother who receives a much-needed lift from her son's Chinese nanny (Song Fang) as they turn the City of Lights into a magical playground for the 7-year-old Simon . a tribute to Albert Lamorisse's 1956 short. In French with subtitles.
Opens in limited release.

Winona Ryder's publicist has blasted reports the actress has been caught up in another shoplifting scandal as "not accurate".
The Heathers star, who was convicted of stealing $6,000 (GBP3,000) worth of clothes from a Saks Fifth Avenue store in Beverly Hills in 2002, reportedly tried to leave a Hollywood pharmacy with make-up items she hadn't paid for.
Staff members claim the actress appeared stunned when security bosses confronted her as she left the Cvs store and set alarms off.
A pharmacy worker reveals, "A security guard stopped her and found make-up she hadn't paid for."
The actress, 36, allegedly insisted she had no idea how the items ended up in her bag.
According to U.S. tabloid the National Enquirer, Ryder returned the items and the police were not called to the store.
But the actress' publicist has dismissed the story, stating, "There's no truth to this. It's not accurate."
