Better Off Dead (DVD)
Lane Myer's (John Cusack) dreams are shattered when his girlfriend Beth (Amanda Wyss) decides she prefers the company of a sleazy ski jock over his own. This disheartening news leads Lane to attempt to take his own life in various ways--all of which never seem to work out. But if he can beat Beth's new boyfriend in a ski run down the treacherous K-12, he may be able to win her back. Along the way, Lane also encounters a beautiful French exchange student, a nasal spray-snorting neighbor, a rabid newspaper boy, and dancing hamburgers. Savage Steve Holland (ONE CRAZY SUMMER) directs this 1985 cult favorite.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreenAudio: Dolby Digital Stereo - EnglishInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene Selection
