YAM’s Top20 High School Movies
In honor of Heathers being chosen as the LAMB Movie of the Month [1], we asked the YAM Magazine team to vote for their favorite films depicting high school life. From a selection of nearly 100 movies about high school, from all over the world, and quite different movie eras, the 100 films that were on the list were as varied as a teen rom-com can be — from a horror movie to a musical…
So without further ado, here are the 20 flicks that got the most votes:
20-11.
These are the films from #20 to #11 that got the same number of votes, ordered by name.
- Carrie
- Easy A
- Fucking Amal
- Ginger Snaps
- Heathers
- Juno
- Rebel Without a Cause
- Rushmore
- Sunny
- The Virgin Suicides
I’d put Clueless here (instead of Virgin Suicides), but overall i like this list! i love that Carrie and Heathers are both here :)
@Candice Frederick, we have 20 picks. Clueless is further down the list…
What about Dazed & Confused?? It’s about that last day of school and that first night of the summer before their senior/freshmen year and college. It is one of my favorites. :D
Just a few more off of my head – Rock’n’Roll High School – it’s the Ramones!!
and of course, Fast Times at Ridgemont High – Sean Penn as Spicoli!? Right on.
