A Ranking Of 24 Classic ’90s Teen Movies From Worst To Best

So many heartthrobs.

Hi! We (Leonora and Erin) were both teens in the '90s, and what a magical time it was for cinematic feats of excellence in the category of teen films. Of course, the '90s also saw a lot of really bad shit.

We're here to rank that bad shit from the good shit. BYEEEE.

Encino Man (1992)

Encino Man (1992)

Leo: I have to try and remember what this was about. Sorry.
Erin: This movie singlehandedly launched my Brendan Fraser crush.
Leo: Oh god.
Erin: He's a total babe.
Leo: For me, Brendan Fraser was already a man and therefore off limits in the crush universe. Although, I say this and yet I also had a thing for Jeff Goldblum and that was only a year later.
Erin: This is a movie about an impossible thing: a caveman coming back from... the cave. So, sorry, Fraser, but you're terrible.

The Faculty (1998)

The Faculty (1998)

Leo: The Faculty is where they're all aliens, right?
Erin: Legit, I have no idea. I just remember Usher.
Leo: He was in every teen movie! Why?! Well, I mean. Who doesn't love Usher.

Leo: This is probably Kevin Williamson's worst work. I find that disappointing.
Erin: Actually, did I see this movie? Maybe I blacked out. Usher.
Leo: This is kind of like a sexy version of a Goosebumps book. And when you think about it that way, the concept might actually be brilliant. I'm undecided.

Drive Me Crazy (1999)

Drive Me Crazy (1999)

Leo: Ugh. This is the oldest plot in history, where it's like, They like other people, no way they could possibly fall in love?! WHATT???
Erin: I remember thinking Melissa Joan Hart couldn't possibly be in high school during this movie. She's basically my age now. Also, I could not imagine them having sex together.
Leo: EWWWWWWW.
