Buffy the Vampire Slayer [25th Anniversary] [Blu-ray] [1992]

Many people forget that this gloriously cheesy, lovely movie was the world's introduction to Buffy, the Vampire Slayer (albeit a less dark and serious version than fans of the tv show may be used to), and a product of Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV), Angel (TV), Firefly (TV), Dr. Horrible, The Avengers, etc....) as well as the triumphant return of Paul Reubens, aka Pee-wee Herman. I love that classic actors like Rutger Hauer and Donald Sutherland get in on the fun, with Kristy Swanson, Luke Perry, Hilary Swank, David Arquette , and Stephen Root (remember Milton, from Office Space? Not to mention a huge list of acting and voice credits), really making this campy vampire movie classic. If you're looking for "serious" vampire flicks, this isn't for you. If you're looking for some laughs, great one-liners and the story of a classic, early 90's valley girl, turned the latest in a long-line of initially reluctant Slayers, give this a try. If you look carefully, you might also see the tiny cameos from Ben Affleck, Alexis Arquette, Seth Green, Ricki Lake and even Slash, from Guns N Roses!

Many people will be familiar with the television show, but the film which came several years previously is sort of a cult classic, at best. That's too bad, because it's a fun little movie, unpretentious and kind of sweet in its own peculiar way. I remember seeing the movie in a theatre when I was in high school; I was a little confused by it, being not all that sure whether I was supposed to be laughing or not, or whether I was supposed to be scared or not. But, hey, I was a stupid teenager. Watching the movie again several years later, I thought it was pretty hilarious (intentionally) in places. It also drags in places, but all in all, it's enjoyable

I was really excited when this was planned to come out. I remember ordering this movie off pay-per-view back when I was in high school and how much it used to make me laugh and make me scared. The performances have obviously gone down quality since I last washed it, but it was still a fun revisit. You can't beat the price either. That and comes with a digital copy, yes please! It's funny that they're doing all these remakes of Buffy right now so this was a cool item to get.

This one is still a classic. Most of the film holds up over time, even though some of the moments in it are cringe-worthy by today's standards. It was Joss Whedons first film, and the extremely clever dialog and plot showcase this. Kristy Swanson is great as Buffy. It was still fun to watch Lo these many years later! Yes, that the TV series was based on this movie.

This review is for the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer..Kristy Swanson who is as attractive now as she was in the 90's. Here she has to deal with Rutger Hauer and Paul Reubens as vampires, Luke Perry as her potential heart throb, and Donald Sutherland as a Van Helsing vampire hunter type. An excellent campy, fun mix of horror, and comedy. 20th Century Fox took a long time to release this but well worth the wait..Check It out!!

As funny as I remember back in the day, You gotta love watching 90's films especially when they finally release them on bluray not to mention the digital HD copy that comes with this 7 release. Kristy Swanson as Buffy, Rutger Hauer as the vampire lothos and my personal favorite Amilyn played by Paul Reubens with the funniest death I've seen :)

Watched this as a kid and it used to scare me so much, as I got older never understood why it was scary, more corny than anything. Since I’d watched it so much as a kid definitely had to get it for blu-Ray and 25th anniversary edition!

The movie itself is a classic. All the usual humor of a Joss Whedon movie with plenty of memorable lines and characters. The blue ray itself lacks anything really special for being an anniversary edition of the film. But otherwise if you love the movie this is your best version of it to date.
