Okay, I hadn't seen this forever and I recorded it. So while I was watching it I was looking up what the actors had done since the movie and I was surprised to see how many of them had died.
Heather Chandler----Kim Walker died of a Brain Tumor in 2001
Mr. Sawyer--William Cort died in 1993
The guy who played Peter the one who was obsessed with getting into college committed suicide in 2000.
I do not remember this character Paul Hyde--but the guy who played him died of AIDS.
I couldn't believe all of the young people that had died from that show.
What do you all think about this?

Kim Walker was excellent in Heathers. My favorite role of Kim's was actually Sheila in Say Anything. Though her lines in Heathers were incredibly hilarious.
I didn't know about the other deaths, but when it's a young person that you just watched and they seemed so alive on the big screen, a really creepy essence of our mortality suddenly comes over you when you find out they are no longer with us. Especially if it happened several years ago and you are just now finding out about it.
One of Kim Walker's famous lines from Heathers is "Did you have a brain tumor for breakfast?" which makes the fact that she died of a brain tumor all that more surreal. Sad stuff, stay well everyone.
