The poster artist re-drew the advertisement to block the suggested view.

Yes it is.

I'm just glad that this if finally coming to DVD. I must've watched this movie 20 or more times on VHS before.

Does it have the insert with the original cover art, so I can "slip" it out and insert it on the front?

If not, where can I print out the original artwork?

Chachi sure, but I can't believe Bibleman would behave in such a lascivious manner!

I still maintain that Locklear is the finer of the two 80s Heathers.

i just watched this last night and was really surprised how well it held up. i prolly haven't seen this since the late 80's and i enjoyed it just as much. it is funny how when you watch something now after viewing so many times before how much you remember. i swear i could have watched this the day before because every scene was so clear and rememberable

really liked every bit of the cheese and the stiffness of Baio's performance. and the songs even evoked feeling and emotion.

great, great experience, but alas no extras to further the viewing pleasure. oh well.

also, if you watch the credits and also listed on IMDb is an actor credit for: Carlos Lacamara ... Older Barney
did i miss a dream sequence or something with an older Barney or was this a deleted scene? boy, i would hate to think there is more of this wonderful material out there...

In 1984, she entered rehab to beat a cocaine addiction.
