FUCK ME GENTLY WITH A CHAINSAW

SO I just discovered that movie scripts can be read online. 
Today is most definitely a HEATHERS day. 
Here's the scripted opening.
Which is almost completely different to the actual opening.
WATCHIT WATCHIT WATCHIT




FADE IN:       
EXT.   SUBURBAN STREET--DAY 
      VERONICA SAWYER, a sullen seventeen year old beauty is jogging down a suburban street in a stylish running outfit.      
Evocative female voices can be heard, softly wailing.       
EXT.   NEIGHBORHOOD PARK--DAY       
VERONICA lurches into a neighborhood park, running with an increasing sense of desperation. The female voices wail louder.      
EXT.   PROMENADE--DAY       
VERONICA whooshes past a series of shops and a movie theatre.       
EXT.   THE SAWYER HOME--DAY       Reveling in her own sweat and agony, VERONICA bounds onto the lawn of her impressive upper middle class home. She painfully rushes closer and closer to the front door as the female moans swell to a deafening summit. The evocative wailing cuts off as she grabs the doorknob.       
INY.   VERONICA'S BEDROOM--DAY       
VERONICA zips into a chic, but understated ensemble as she launches into voice-over narration.                               
VERONICA (V.O.) Heather told me she teaches people Real Life.
Composed and unsweaty, VERONICA fingers her bangs in the mirror then rambles off.       
INT.   HIGH SCHOOL HALLWAY--DAY       
Continuing her narration, VERONICA glides through a bustling high school hallway with a frozen smile.                               
VERONICA (V.O.) She said Real Life sucks Losers dry.If you want to fuck with the eagles, you have to learn to fly.
