Deutsche Version<\/a> | Season 1<\/a><\/p>\n

Next to all the science fiction I need a bit of fantasy in the mix. I have ignored Buffy<\/strong> for many years and only in 2007 I watched the pilot for the first time on TV. And I have to say, it intrigued me. I ordered the first season, watched it, wanted to know how it would continue and ordered the entire show.<\/p>\n

But there was a movie first:<\/p>\n

Buffy the Vampire Slayer<\/a><\/p>\n

Synopsis:<\/em> Buffy is a normal high school freshman and member of the cheerleading squad. But then she meets Merrick and he shows her what she really is: The Chosen One, a Vampire Slayer. Born with the strength and skill to fight the Vampires, to stop the spread of their evil and the swell of their numbers. But she wants to stay a normal girl and wants nothing to do with such rubbish.<\/p>\n

My Opinion:<\/em> This movie may not be what Joss Whedon had intended or will do on the TV show. But it definitively falls into the category of “guilty pleasure” and is a lot of fun if you’re willing to accept its cheesiness. And the dialogue is unmistakably Whedon. Also, Lothos used a Samurai Katana, that’s a plus in the book. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

And then there was the show.<\/p>\n
