Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

Look, can we just have a moment?

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

moment for lockers lockers were so exotic to us weren't they absolutely imagine having a locker we never had anything like that you were lucky if you had like a drawer in your desk yeah absolutely with all the sort of bubble gum stuck to the bottom nobody had a locker it was just dragging around a bag yeah

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

So exciting.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

Yeah.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

I mean, and also I am not a particularly genre person, right?

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

But what I understand is that if you're dealing with something like vampires, in each show, there are kind of rules around how vampires work.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

And there are some classic things, which obviously like they can't see the sun, you know, that kind of thing.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

They're killed with a stake.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

And even I, a vampire amateur, no offense.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

But there are other things which I was reminded of, which is they can't go into your house unless you invite them in.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

Just funny little rules like that, aren't there?

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

Just gothy, isn't it?

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

Yeah.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

They get a bit burned, don't they?

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

But it's not like...

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

The other thing that I thought was interesting is that they decided... Because obviously when you die...

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

you die, if you're a vampire, you die.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

And they decided that when the vampires were going to die, they would just turn to dust.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

And the reason why they decided was because basically they couldn't be bothered to work out what they were going to do with all the bodies.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Buffy the Vampire Slayer! โ€“ How a surprise monster hit redefined horror

Yeah, dust is great.
