    What can I say - it was truely awful. Sh1te dialog, sh1te plot, predicable, and a great laugh. Go in and expect nothing and you'll have a great time. James Wood's character tries to be so macho. I laughed my way through it.

    Buffy the Vampire Slayer would probably rock even without buffy, because yer wan the geeky girl with the red hair gets enough good lines to carry the show.

    See the last episode (the one banned in the states) is on TV on Friday night?


  • Subscribers Posts: 1,911 ✭✭✭Draco


    Yep!
    Don't forget Xander has a hell of a lot of good lines as well - remember the "Lino makes me horny" scene? And Charisma Captenter...yummy!

    As for From Dusk to Dawn - it was a great film. There were just so many funny scenes in it...the "I was in the NAM!" is one of my favourites.

    erm, it wasn't banned it was delayed release due to Colombine, although I have no idea why.

    Two kids shooting up a school, and a bunch of kids kicking the **** out of large demon...

    yea I can see the similarities.

    What is particularly ironic is that they did show the epsiode that had the kid Buffy thought was going to shoot a load of kids.
    It would have been shown a couple of weeks before hand.
    Particularly phrophetic were the lines:

    Willow "I can't believe some would shoot their own class mates"
    Claudilia "Like that never happens in American High Schools"
