Buffy tastic! The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Box Set

Advantages: great entertainment
Disadvantages: none

Background: I grew up with Buffy and her trials and tribulations were fairly similar to my own (except I saved the world less and encountered fewer demons). When I saw the complete DVD collection in a shop I just couldn't resist. The box set: The box set includes all 7 seasons, with each season in a separate case. As you'd expect each case also contains a little booklet telling you about each episode and the extras on the discs. The title screens ...
...was to get all the Buffy episodes together! The episodes: The humour and stories are just as good as I remembered them and I would utterly and without reservation recommend this box set to anyone who has fond Buffy memories! **also published on dooyoo under the same name** ...

The Tall Man is coming!

Advantages: It comes in a cool "phantasm sphere", which contains four good films - and a bonus disc!
Disadvantages: This series may not be for your run-of-the-mill horror fan - it's a cult type of series!

As the series goes on he grows up and tries time after time to escape the Tall Man and try and stop his evil plans for world domination, and avoid death at the hands of "THE SPHERE". A. Michael Baldwin is replaced in the second film by ...
