Plot Synopsis:
Poor white trash beauty Billie Jean (Helen Slater) attempts to collect restitution for her brother's trashed moped and is almost raped by the store owner. After her brother, Binx (Christian Slater - no relation), shoots the storeowner, they go on the lam, and get all the teens in America rallying to support Billie Jean in her crusade against adults. The lovely German lasses in "Bandits" will do the same thing several years later - but with more sex and singing along the way.
Favorite Moments:
- Helen Slater's new outfit - butch hair, wet suit and one dangly earring.
- Christian Slater's horrid blonde dye job.
- Much teen angst bullshit.
