Sarah Michelle Gellar Agrees that Buffy Reboot is Dumb

Being the hardcore Buffy the Vampire Slayer fangirl that I am I’m furious about the Buffy reboot.

Joss Whedon’s Thoughts on Buffy Remake

Joss Whedon’s Thoughts on Buffy Remake

As I mentioned before, Buffy the Vampire Slayer is returning to the big screen, but this film has no ties to the Buffy creator Joss Whedon or the rest of the beloved Buffy cast and crew. That’s right, they’re creating a Buffy movie without any of the people that made Buffy amazing. As I’m sure …

Children of the Night

Children of the Night

With the release of “Let Me In,” the American adaptation John Ajvide Lindquist’s novel, a trope that naturally comes to mind is the child vampire.
