The Main “Buffy” Cast Just Reunited and the Cameras Were Rolling
“People getting strength from my own little terrors… there is no better legacy than that.”
The horror genre has often been criticized for looking down on women, but the reality is that horror has given us some of the greatest pop culture heroines of all time. And no such list would be complete without the ass-kicking Buffy Summers, portrayed by Sarah Michelle Gellar in “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” Believe it or not, it’s been twenty years since we first met Buffy!
In celebration of the inspiring and influential show’s 20th birthday, Entertainment Weekly just gathered together the core cast for a massive reunion; it was the first joint interview and photo shoot the actors united for in over a decade. The latest issue of EW, on newsstands this week, spotlights the “Buffy” reunion; but you don’t have to wait or spend any money to enjoy it.
Below you’ll find some footage from the reunion, which was plucked from a 45-minute vid you can watch over on People.com. If you’re a fan of the series, it’s guaranteed to make your day.
Reflecting on the “Buffy” experience, Gellar told EW:
I’m so incredibly proud of what we all created. Sometimes you need distance to really understand the gravitas of that. I appreciate everything about that job. As an actor, all you ever want to do is leave your mark — you want to do something that affects people.
While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
