Saw Trilogy Review

Advantages: Great price, 3 great movies, Gore fans will love it!
Disadvantages: None- I loved it.

...these are must see movies. Saw trilogy remarkably reworks the horror genre by adding a plot that is genuinely unique and keeps you guessing until the very end. There is no holding back when it comes to scene sheer violence and terror on screen as wrong doers are tortured. The strange part is that the killer in the movies does not think he is a killer, he believes that he is helping the victims. The people he tortures have all done something wrong ...
...to play a terrifying game to realise there errors and live better lives. The trap/death scenes are unique in each movie and will live you hiding behind your sofa. It's a must watch to see these scenes alone. A great addition for any gore fan. "Do you want to play a game?" ...

Where it All Began

Advantages: Great series, funny and thrilling.
Disadvantages: Some of the effects are a little outdated.

...true must have for any Buffy fan, this is the series that started it all. Join the original 'Scooby Gang' of Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Willow (Alyson Hannigan) and Xander (Nicholas Brendon) along with Buffy's watcher Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) as they embark on their very first adventures together in the somewhat ironically named 'Sunnydale', through the trials and tribulations of being teenagers, the responsibilty of being a butt-kicking ...
...'hell' that is high school. The special effects might not be wonderful by todays standards - but it is what it is. Great fun to watch the characters as they started out on somewhat hesitant ground, and some of the most original and great work of BTVS. Not to be missed. ...

Ring trilogy-brilliant!

Advantages: Very scary! Well directed and executed
Disadvantages: Can seem a bit slow

These are some of the scariest films I have ever seen! I have seen the original Japanese versions and thought that these American remakes were amazing films in their own right. Deaths are occuring 7 days after watching a certain video but you never really see anyone get killed so the suspense and mystery are high which makes the films scarier. It plays on your imagination and builds up suspense very well for an american horror film. Some could say ...
...that this builds up the suspense even more and makes it much scarier! I think these films are well directed and executed and would reccommend anyone who hasnt seen them to buy this box set. Even though it is rated a 15, viewers older than this will be scared! ...

Becoming Buffy

Advantages: Great characters, an excellent story arc, fantastic season finale
Disadvantages: A couple of bad episodes

Buffy the Vampire Slayer 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 ...
...out of her shell, and Buffy grows up a lot as she deals with the hand life has dealt her. There are some wonderful new characters in this season, amongst them the infamous Spike. The bleach blonde vampire is played by James Marsters with aplomb and despite the slightly dodgy English accent is a fantastic character. Accompanying Spike is the insane Drusilla; another English character played by an American - in this case Juliet Landau. Spike and Dru ...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Season 6

Advantages: Buffy is not dead anymore
Disadvantages: Buffy is lees funny and cheerfull.. which i guess death does to a person.

Everyone has their own favorite Buffy Season. Season 6 is definitely my personal favorite. i loved the fact that Buffy was resurrected, because let's face itl If she had not.. there would be no Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 6. For those of you who do not know who Buffy is here is my own description: Buffy is supposed to be a care-free college student, but instead she has to battle the creatures of the night or in other words: Vampires! She lives ...
...meant to be a secret. Buffy however shared her secret with her group of friends who helps her fight evil regularly. Her friends are: Xander, a somewhat weird guy who used to have a crush on Buffy in high school is now very much in love with an Ex-demon named Anya. Giles, the former librarian of Sunnydale high school, is the owner of the magic shop. He also used to be Buffy's 'watcher'. Willow is Buffy's best friend who is a witch and only recently ...
