Buffy the Vampire Slayer, a review by DJ DoenaMarch, 1st Kristy Swanson ... Buffy Donald Sutherland ... Merrick Paul Reubens ... Amilyn Rutger Hauer ... Lothos Luke Perry ... Pike Michele Abrams ... Jennifer Hilary Swank ... Kimberly Paris Vaughan ... Nicole David Arquette ... Benny Stephen Root ... Gary Murray Thomas Jane ... Zeph Synopsis: Buffy is a normal highschool freshman and member of the cheerleading squad. But then she meets Merrick and he shows her what she really is: The Chosen One, a Vampire Slayer. Born with the strength and skill to fight the Vampires, to stop the spread of their evil and the swell of their numbers. But she wants to stay a normal girl and wants nothing to do with such rubbish. My Opinion: This movie may not be what Joss Whedon had intended or will do on the TV show. But it definitivly falls into the category of "guilty pleasure" and is a lot of fun if you're willing to accept its cheesiness. And the dialogue is unmistakably Whedon. Also, Lothos used a Samurai Katana, that's a plus in the book. (From DJ Doena's movie watchings 2009 on March 1st, 2009) Stephen King's Sleepwalkers, a review by addicted2dvdStephen King's Sleepwalkers TV Star: Brian Krause (Charmed) My Thoughts: Felt like it was about time to add a little horror to my marathon. As most of you know... I love movies based on Stephen King's books. I usually go out of my way to collect them. Though I am still missing a few. This one I do enjoy a lot... but it is not the best of his I have seen. I like that this one stars Brian Krause of Charmed. This movie is 6 years before the series... so I of course didn't know who he was the first time I seen this movie. Anyway... I found this to be a very good (though not great) horror movie. It is one I try to watch at least once per year since I added it to my collection. My Ratings: Out of a Possible 5 Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX16HZ5RYLM (From Weekend Movie Marathon: TV Stars in the Movies on March 27th, 2009) Smallville Marathon, a review by addicted2dvdSeason 2: Disc 3: EPISODE 9: DOCHOTIC Clark has his suspicions when an overachieving student goes on a date with Lana and Chloe at the exact same time. Meanwhile, Lex meets his future wife in anger management class. My Thoughts: This is a really good episode. Jonathan Taylor Thomas (Home Improvement) plays the boy that can split in 2. I have to admit... every time I see the scene where :ex takes a 9 Iron to the meter maid's car a smile comes to my face. EPISODE 10: SKINWALKER He fell to Earth in a meteor shower. Shoots fire from his eyes. Sound like anyone you know? The story told in ancient cave drawings may relate to Clark's destiny and his new romance with a lovely Native American. My Thoughts: Another good episode. This is the one that started the long arc about the Indian caves that talks of Clark's destiny. Though I must admit... even the first time I watched this episode I figured right away who the "Skinwalker" was. EPISODE 11: VISAGE Just when things are getting better between Lana and Clark, along comes ex-boyfriend and Marine recruit Whitney. But there's something about Whitney that doesn't seem right to Clark. My Thoughts: Yet another good episode. And the last appearance of Eric Johnson (Whitney) in the series. And the last appearance of the character Tina Greer... the "Freak of the Week" that was able to change her appearance into anyone. EPISODE 12: INSURGENCE There's only one way into the sealed-off Metropolis tower where Lionel and Martha are held captive at gunpoint, and that's to leap 200 feet from the adjacent 'Daily Planet' building. This sounds like a job for - wait: can youthful Clark really accomplish such an incredible feat? My Thoughts Wow... This disc is 4 for 4 on good episodes! In this episode we get the first real hint of Lionel Luthor's attraction to Martha. I loved the scene of Clark jumping from building to building. Really good episode.
