Who doesn’t love a good ‘80s teen fashion icon, let alone one played by the ultimate It Girl of her time? Throw in some old-fashioned teenage angst and a dash of murder, and you get one Winona Ryder as Veronica Sawyer of Heathers, the coolest dark comedy of them all.
A few short weeks ago, I hopped on a plane from Vancouver, BC to Portland, OR for the weekend for my 29th birthday. Pretty sweet trip, right? Lots of delicious food. Cool places to visit, and lovely people, no doubt. But, my sole purpose – my main reason for going – was to celebrate my birthday at the joint Walker Stalker Con / Heroes & Villains Event, Fan Fest Portland. Thanks to some careful money-saving as well as gifts from best friends, I went all-out, scored a Platinum VIP ticket, and had the best. Weekend. Ever.
