A Refreshing Reminder of What We Loved About the Buffyverse
30 May 2007
This was the first Buffy fan-film to appear on the internet, and was made on a zero-budget.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer's UK counterpart, Fluffy, foils vampires' plans with the help of her friends Alex and Ash, and her American Watcher Farmer.

OK, so it's no Hollywood blockbuster, but the acting is great, the script witty, with good fight sequences, and awesome special effects considering the technology available, including several vampire "dustings" and a Star Wars moment thrown in for good measure. The storyline is clearly taken from the Buffy episode The Harsh Light of Day, with the Ring of Gellar granting invulnerability, the conjuration of beer, and the power to bend spoons to the wearer, but it is different enough to make it fresh and fun.

This film shouldn't work, but it does. It's fun, light-hearted, and should be viewed for what it is: a comedic film by faithful fans of the Buffyverse.

All in all an enjoyable 20 minutes viewing, and a refreshing reminder of what we loved about the Buffyverse.
