  • Buffy Season 1 [DVD]Buffy Season 1 | DVD | (18/09/2017) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

    Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) looks like your typical perky high-schooler, and like most, she has her secret fears and anxieties. However, while most teens are worrying about their next date, their next zit, or their next term paper, Buffy's angsting over the next vampire she has to slay. See, Buffy, a young woman with superhuman strength, is the "chosen one," and she must help rid the world of evil, namely by staking demons. The exceptional first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer introduces us to the treacherous world of Sunnydale High School (where Buffy moved after torching her previous high school's gym). The characters there include "watcher" Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) and the original "Scooby Gang" members--friendly geek Xander (Nicholas Brendon), computer whiz Willow (Alyson Hannigan), and snobbish popular girl Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter)--who aid Buffy in her quest. Those used to the darker tone that Buffy took in its later seasons will be surprised by the lighter feeling these first 12 episodes have--it's kind of like Buffy 90210 as the cast grapples with regular teen problems in addition to saving the world from demonic darkness. Fans of the show will enjoy the crisp writing, the phenomenal chemistry of the cast (already well-established within the first few episodes), and the introduction to characters that would stay for many seasons, including moody vampire Angel (David Boreanaz). Through it all, Gellar carries the series with amazing confidence, whether conveying the despair of high school or dispatching various demons--she's one of TV's most distinctive and strongest heroines. --Mark Englehart

  • Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Slayer Collection (Spike)Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Slayer Collection (Spike) | DVD | (01/03/2004) from £10.74   |  Saving you £2.25 (20.95%)   |  RRP £12.99

    One of Buffy's strongest selling points was its large cast of supporting characters. The Slayer Collection: Spike gathers together four episodes involving perhaps the most popular of all of these: the cool punk rock vampire who, in the course of the show's run, moves from being one of Buffy's most terrible enemies to her lover and defender. He and his Goth vamp lover Drusilla arrived on the scene in "School Hard" and proceeded to disrupt a PTA meeting at Sunnydale High. Also from the second season we get "Lie to Me", in which a temporary alliance with one of Buffy's most treacherous friends demonstrates the essential fragility of the relationship between Spike and Dru even after a century. He returned briefly in Season 3 in "Lovers Walk", deserted by Dru and desperately flailing around, wrecking most of the show's relationships in a single bout of drunken violence, truth-telling and sharp wit. By the fifth season, Spike was a very different vampire--with a chip in his brain that stopped him hurting humans and he fell desperately in love with a Buffy, who had not yet learned to trust him; "Fool for Love" was the episode in which we learned Spike's back-story: he was a minor Victorian poet, turned by Drusilla when rejection in love led him down the wrong alley, his entire hyper-aggressive persona is based on a need to hide his sensitivity. Spike was always one of the main focuses of the show's combination of acute wit and passionate romanticism and these four episodes admirably sample what made him so appealing to fans. On the DVD: The Slayer Collection: Spike also includes a documentary about the history of Spike as a character in which James Marsters talks intelligently about his portrayal of his most famous role. --Roz Kaveney
