New villains new supporting characters and Spike's back! It really doesn't get much (horribly) better than this!

Candy Clark, who plays Buffy's mom, is a very bad actress in my opinion, and is nothing like the Joyce Summers who we come to know in the series.

If you have the DVD, skip forward to Scene 26 to watch the most confusing part of the movie - Buffy is about to stab a vampire, but gets interrupted by another vampire playing violin. She proceeds to kill the vampire, who dies pathetically, while the violinist continues to play. You get to see the vampire finally die after the end credits roll.

The story was bad, the character performance was worse, the special efects didn't even seem to exist. The songs were irritating. I'd have to call this the worst movie I have ever seen.
I think watching this movie was really a waste of my time.
If you're a fan of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series, you should probably try to see it, but don't be too disappointed by how bad it is.
Advantages: Feel-good and light hearted. Disadvantages: Not for the hardcore TV series fans.
Okay, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie is definately not for everyone. If you're a fan of the series & love Sarah Michelle Gellar as the vampire-slaying, butt-kicking Buffy, then this is probably not your cup of tea.
The Buffy TV series is a whole lot more gothic, more serious, and has a rockier soundtrack. The movie on the other hand is pretty light hearted, and girly. In a word, i'd say this movie is cheesy. But that doesn't mean its bad. If ... ...people would probably say they prefer the series. Its just a case of taste, really. The movie seems more of a late 80's film, what with the fashion and soundtrack. The whole thing is not taken too seriously, and a lot of the vampires are pretty slapstick.
I think it's a brilliant, feel good film, if you disregard the series for an hour and a half! ...

Advantages: EXTRA EPISODES, GOOD INTERVEWS,GOOD EFFECTS Disadvantages: SCENERY A BIT DARK IN PLACES
i have watched buffy the vampire since the very begining and was hooked from the very first episode where she learns that she is the only slayer. i love the struggle between good and evil and been a slayer and trying to be a ordinary teenager.
the best scences that i loved was when she first meets angel and does not know he is a vampire. the journey they go on to discover each others identidy and have feelings for each other that are supposed to be forbidden is excellent viewing.
all the other characters such as willow xander and claudellia are brilliant as part of buffys scooby gang and provide excellent humour and satire to the series.
buffys struggle to keep her normal life and her slayer life a secret from her mother also provides thought and scences of struggle between two identities. trying to please both hes mother and watcher ...
Advantages: Great characters, an excellent story arc, fantastic season finale Disadvantages: A couple of bad episodes
Buffy the VampireSlayer really found its feet in season two. It progressed from being a monster of the week show, to a show with a serious storyline, character and plot arcs.
I don't want to repeat the general information I put into my review of season one, so I'll just jump straight into reviewing the characters and episodes. Read my review of season one here: http://dvd.ciao.co.uk/BuffyTheVampireSlayerSeason1CollectionDVDRev iew5767154
--Characters- -
Sarah Michelle Gellar, Alyson Hannigan, Nicholas Brendon and Anthony Stewart Head return as Buffy, Willow, Xander and Giles - the Scooby gang of Sunnydale who fight vampires and demons.
In terms of character development for this season, we see Willow really coming out of her shell, and Buffy grows up a lot as she deals with the hand life has dealt her.

Advantages: One of the best seasons of Buffy in a complete boxset Disadvantages: Only one episode with spike. No 5.1 sound.

Background
*****************
The phenomenally successful series Buffy the VampireSlayer returns for its third season on DVD. The series focuses on the life of Buffy Summers, high school student by day, super strong vampireslayer by night.
Although you could start watching Buffy from this season (after all I originally started watching in season 5) its not recommended, as you would not fully understand the story lines.

The Packaging
******************
As with season 2 the dvd's are encased within an impressive book. Each dvd being protected in a seperate page with fluffy lining, the book also contains a useful episode guide.
Once more the book fits nicely into a cardboard sleeve, this is a purple colour with a big picture of Buffy on the front.

DVD Description
In BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, a fully accessorised L.A. high school cheerleader (Kristy Swanson) is informed by a mysterious stranger (Donald Sutherland) that she is destined to battle vampires. Soon she's wreaking havoc on a local chapter of bloodsuckers. But when the top vampire (Rutger Hauer) vows revenge, it totally fouls up her social schedule. This film, featuring a script by BUFFY mastermind Joss Whedon, is the forerunner to the popular television series.
