The ‘90s pop culture obsession is full on: it was recently reported that Cruel Intentions will return as a sequel TV series. And while we’re crossing our fingers for Sarah Michelle Gellar’s return, we’re also remembering other ‘90s cult teen flicks worthy of a resurrection – from Empire Records to Jawbreaker, here are 8 we’d love to see get the small screen treatment.

Jawbreaker

Mean Girls usually gets all the love as the bitchy clique flick, but let’s be real for a moment: Lindsay Lohan’s finest hour would never happen if it wasn’t for a much darker 1999’s cult black comedy Jawbreaker, which featured a titular candy as an accidental murder weapon of the school’s most innocent and popular girl, leaving her murders—school’s ruling bitch squad headed by Rose McGowan—literally cleaning up their mess. The movie was already mirrored in Scream Queens’ opening scene and Jawbreaker’s writer/director Darren Stein came back to the teen genre a couple years ago with the hilarious GBF (which itself evolved into MTV’s Faking It), so now would be a perfect time to re-visit the bizarre world of short skirts, red lipstick and dead teen dreams.

The Craft

Yes, we did have American Horror Story: Coven, The Secret Circle, Witches Of East End and even Salem, but it seems like none of these shows managed to capture the spirit of a true ‘90s witch bitch. So how about a show about witches that’s less focused on the fashion (sorry, Coven), but actually has relatable characters, frightening rituals and this elusive ‘90s swag. (And the ever-so-fashionable gothic school uniform, but that’s a given.)

The Faculty

Robert Rodriguez’s take on the teen sci-fi was surprisingly awesome and still remains one of the most beloved ‘90s flicks, thanks to its likable cast and the evergreen theme of teens VS adults (in this case adults-replaced-by-evil-aliens). What if the kids of the original characters now go to the same high school and encounter the same spacey parasite that once again turns the school halls into a battlefield, where everyone’s a suspect? Do we need a new teen whodunit with out of this world ambition? In the words of the original’s star, Usher: ‘Yeah!’ 

I Know What You Did Last Summer

Scream’s step-brother slasher is already up for a remake, but maybe it would be a smarter move to bring it to the small screen. Seeing how well Jennifer Love-Hewitt’s doing on TV these days, she can even make a comeback as a poor Julie James, who was robbed of any fun summers ever since she and her friends decided to cover up a manslaughter. She obviously has a teenage son or a daughter (or both) and tries to do everything in her power to prevent them from repeating her mistakes. But it’s a slasher world, so the past is bound to repeat itself: the vicious hook-wielding stalker is back to get us hooked, one hour a week. One request: learn from Scream The Series’ mistakes and make it more about the actual suspense, not the teen drama. Please.

Wild Things

A pleasantly naughty tale of the rape-trial-gone-wrong is mostly remembered for its steamy threesome scene and a sexual tension between Neve Campbell and Denise Richards, but its plot had more twists and turns than most of the ‘90s erotic thrillers combined. Like Cruel Intentions, it had a long direct-to-video life (the fourth installment was brilliantly titled Wild Things: Foursome), but it can really bloom in the TV format, where the scheming characters with all their secret agendas, enormous bank accounts and large private yachts could have more than one dimension. Just promise us it’ll be on HBO or FX, ‘cause you can’t have Wild Things without a slipping bikini.

Empire Records

Do kids these days even know what it means to line-up in front of the music store on the album release day? Or why the prospect of getting bought by a large chain sounds so dreadful to the characters? The TV version of the beloved mid-90s movie about the colorful employees of the titular store can explain all of this to the young generation and bring on the full-on '90s madness in the process. Here’s a promotional idea: show the pilot to the live audience at Hollywood's Amoeba Music and promote it as ‘Rex Manning Day’. 

American Pie

The story about part-doe-eyed part-apple-pie-loving high school students had enough sequels and spin-off movies, but for some reason never crossed over to TV land. Given MTV’s love for turning movies into series (hello, Scream and Teen Wolf), it’s only a matter of time before its bosses remember the pivotal 1999’s comedy that kick-started a new wave of teen comedies. Seeing how most of the original cast showed up for 2011’s American Reunion, it’s a no-brainer they’d be up for a longer walk down the memory lane. Well, maybe except for Tara Reid, who’d be probably too busy filming Sharknado 4 or 5.

Clueless

Clueless did have its own TV show right after the movie’s unexpected success that lived for three seasons, although Alicia Silverstone was replaced by Rachel Blanchard in the main role of a virgin who can’t drive named Cher Horowitz. So maybe now it’s time to see a proper Clueless sequel with Alicia reprising her most iconic role and teaching a new generation how to perfectly implement ‘as if’ into any conversation. And we also need a new hat trend, so bring on Stacey Dash, too!
