Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Enjoyable beginning to a scary TV series. Horror revolves around not only the idea of death, but in exploring the very real human fear of it. Buffy is not only horror allegory but also comedy, romance and melodrama. However, there was not much change in my current understanding of the vampire lore. Into each generation a slayer is born. One girl in the entire world is the chosen one. She is born with the strength and skill to hunt the vampires and to stop the spreading of evil. At the young age of 15, Buffy is chosen to hunt down and kill vampires, demons and other forces of darkness. Buffy Summers has been presented here as a messiah figure.
