Buffy The Vampire Slayer: A Love Story with a Real Twist
From left to right: Angel (David Boreanaz), Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Spike (James Marsters)
In my defense, the first time I saw Buffy The Vampire Slayer, I had changed the channel faster than I could blink: the creatures-the bad guys – were so damn ugly.
But then I caught a glimpse of this tall, dark, brooding and handsome guy named Angel (David Boreanaz)…He was so cool without being cold,and he was strong, gentle and thoughtful. And MYSTERIOUS.

OK., so I started wondering about this gorgeous stranger. He showed up exactly when Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) needed her, was sweet enough to have her yearn for him and disappeared before we could really find out who he was. He was falling her too and things were getting complicated. See, this guy didn’t have a commitment problem. He didn’t have the typical guy issues. But she never saw him during daytime and he didn’t talk about football or music or anything like that.He just kept warning her about the dangers ahead. After almost dying out of curiousity, we found out this guy was a vampire. Not any vampire though, he was a nice guy. The problem was that back in Ireland, 200+ years ago, he was just a rebellious, party-loving young man. A hot girl in a dark alley makes eyes at him…and turns him into a vampire. So no heartbeat, no image in the mirror, allergy to sunlight and no soul are what he gains, as well as being evil (no soul, no conscience) and he terrorizes the hell out of the world with the vampire girl who made him. But a gypsy family decides to avenge by putting back his soul. Now- you have a guy who remembers everything he has done and suffers from it…Then he decides to be helpful and help humans. Of course the girl he falls for is the one who’s supposed to kill vampires. One night, they kiss- then he shows his vampire face and things get…exciting. Seriously,think about this: your boyfriend is a good guy turned bad then turned good again? You can’t walk during the day with him? He’s a couple of centuries older than you? Now unlike other shows, their issues are (though supernatural) more substantial than stuff we often see on shows or movies. After she finds out his story, they can’t decide whether or not to be together. How it could be. The girl is 16, a student and her job is to kill non-human creatures… Most of the time, they give in to passion, lust and love. But one more problem: they can’t have sex. The family who has put back his soul made sure that he loses it if he ever became perfectly happy. And Angel thinks that making love with the girl he loves might do just that…
But one night, when they were almost both killed, she gets reckless:out of fear
Buffy and Angel
and passion and tells him to let go and they have sex.
The next morning, goes the man of a lot of dreams and comes the evil without the soul who wants to destroy the world.
Angelus. Yep, the make-up doesn't really look hot on David.
