If you want to wath Better Off Dead, this is the way to do it. Seriously. You can't find it streaming anywhere. And that's fine, because wouldn't you like to own it for yourself? It's 80s wackiness at its best. And this is definitely the best quality version you've seen unless you happened to catch it in theaters. Worth the price, even if it lacks any special features (besides the original trailer).

Better Off Dead redefined the 80's heartbreak and revenge film. The added animation gives it a unique twist to it's humor. John Cusack is fresh and in command as the star of the movie with an amazing supporting cast. Great soundtrack also! This is an essential part of any 80's movie collection.

One of my all time favorite movies!!! An all around fun movie. I fell in love with the first generation Camaro when I saw this movie. If you want an entertaining movie that is fun for the whole family, this one will definitely fit the bill.

A fantastic movie! Super strange, really funny. And something that probably wouldn't get made today. Highly recommended if you enjoy your comedy a little weird and starring John Cusack.

Better off dead is one of my personal favorite comedies with not enough people who know or talk about this film. I have always thought john cusack has had some OK to bad films but so far I have enjoyed him in The Frozen Ground and this( I have not seen say anything yet). This movie was made for TV and has a lot of cheesy parts in the film but I smile every time I watch this its a funny underrated picture that deserves to be watched. I highly recommend this.

One of my favorite movies from my youth. Can't find it streaming anywhere. The video quality is nice, no complaints. Was happy to find that I still really enjoy the humor.

I remember watching this movie years ago, over and over again. Simply a great teen comedy. John Cusack is a great actor and the Camaro is
One of my favorite cars. If you have never seen this movie, its an absolute must. Tou will laugh your butt off!

One of the best "Forgotten" comedies of the 1980's

"Better off Dead" is an over-the-top teen comedy in the vein of "Revenge of the Nerds" or "Weird Science". In my opinion, in terms of pure hilarity, it surpasses much of John Hughes work. The Blu-ray looks far superior to its DVD counterpart.

I gave it 4 stars because i love the movie, but the case is as cheap as they come. I actually thought the case was broke at first, but no, it's just very cheap. The movie itself is a huge clarity difference from the dvd or old vhs for sure. For the price, cant complain for a classic.

Better Off Dead is an interesting movie. To me it’s not your average 80’s flick. It’s weird and genuinely funny and has strange moments. Sure has some cheesy moments, but what do you want? It’s an 80’s movie.

Sophomoric Humor and Romantic Comedy

I purchased Better Off Dead as an opportunity to share a movie from my youth with my children. I have oft quoted the line "I want my 2 dollars", and nobody seemed to know where it came from. This movie is light-hearted and ultimately feel-good, with a touch of unrealistic humor. I enjoyed watching it again. Remember, the car is the real star.

John Cusack plays an inept suicidal teenager when his girlfriend dumps. Sounds more like a drama but this is a very funny movie from the '80's. An excellent looking blue ray with gorgeous color.
