Once More With Feeling- love it!!!

Advantages: funny, musical, good for anyone even if not buffy fan, brilliant acting
Disadvantages: slightly cheesy

...when watching this episode of buffy is that it is FANTASTIC! Everything works so well together. The comedy, the music, the fighting. Brilliant. I will admit that i am biased as an addicted Scooby but i feel that anyone who hasnt been won over by the Buffy series before, this will definetly hit you with the buffy bug. Who knew they could all sing. This is even one for those who want to sit in and watch a classic musical. Even though it is a part of ...
...and one of my top ten that i own. The continuing of one of the forbidden loves of all time between buffy and spike. The first fight of the loved up witches. There is something for all in this feature length episode. You dont want to miss ou on it. ...

Advantages: Good continuation, character development.

...volume continues the story of Vampire Princes Miyu, dedicated hunter and returner to the darkness of demons, or "Shinma" with the help of her protector Larva and her companion Shiina, an ugly rabbit like Shinma with one huge yellow bloodshot eye that, thankfully, is obscured by it's floppy bunny ear for most of the time. (It does actually serve a purpose, allowing Shiina to see long distance or through deception, but still looks horrible!) In my ...
...cabbies that there's a schoolgirl vampire with a weird hairstyle draining the blood of drivers when asked to pay it's fare, and it's soon playground gossip. So when we see Miyu being driven to a cemetary and pulling a Vamp "game" face it seems as though Miyu isn't quite as nice as she first appeared. However things quickly come to a head and ye of little faith are swiftly put in their place. Miyu tries to attack Chisato, but then Miyu comes to the ...

...of Gothic grandeur (the vampire ball) and lot of awful on-liners and James Bond references (I hate Bond!). Human characters are not much - Van Helsing is somewhere between sympathetic nerdy sidekick Carl and unsympathetic strrrong woman Anna (who has awful James Bond villain accent). Great outweighs awful.. ...

Back to the darkness...

Advantages: Interesting story, character development.
Disadvantages: Wooden dub, not enough DVD extras.

Vampire Princess Miyu may sound like some long lost relation to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but that's where the similarities begin and end. Miyu was born to become an immortal vampire "shinma" hunter, shinma being demons that delight in the torture and death of humans. With the help of her protector, Larva (a mysterious caped man in the sort of mask that wouldn't look out of place on a Little Apple doll), Miyu hunts down these stray shinma and returns ...
...that the culprit was a vampire - courtesy of two puncture marks in the girl's neck. Nerdy classmate Machiyama found the body and witnessed a girl (Miyu) running from the scene, so when she turns up as a new student the next day Machiyama becomes determined to prove her guilt. But as we know Miyu isn't at fault suspicion falls on teacher, Yanahigana Maiko, an introverted woman who lives alone with her pet lizard. Especially as the victims were girls ...

Nosferatu

Advantages: The first vampire movie
Disadvantages: not so special second disc

...disc one remastered print of Nosferatu has very sharp nice image quality considering this movie is over 70 years old. This movie has been colour tinted a reddish colour. Audio is in 5.1 surround, it appropriately fits in well with what's going on and is never overbearing. Also on the disc are two featurettes, one entitled NOSFRATOUR which consist of a tour of some of the original shooting locations. The other consists of conceptual and promotional ...
...full of interesting information, but I did feel at times the person speaking dug too deeply into things. Disc two contains nothing but an older un-re-mastered dirty scratchy version of the same movie with half the scenes missing. Not really worth an extra disk but the re-mastered tinted version is nice. ...
