The importance of Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Broadcast between 1997 and 2003, Buffy the Vampire Slayer marked his era. Much more than a series about vampires for teenagers, it is above all a fascinating work, full of varied themes and characters. It’s even more interesting to see the story of a teenage vampire hunter told today the topics covered therein.
If we address the topic of adolescence we cannot miss it the feminist aspect of the series and Buffy’s constant struggle against patriarchal figures. As in the case of an abusive future father-in-law who turns out to be a robot in episode 11 of season 2. the girl’s toxic relationship with Spikewhich changes definitively in episode 19 of season 6, when the latter attacks him.
A chilling scene, but one that contributes to the questions the series tries to raise with characters who are in no way models of perfection. Their gray areas being the most interesting. And this is probably the reason Buffy the Vampire Slayer East still popular with several derivatives. In fact, the story is not limited to seven seasons, but has been considerably enriched the spin-off Angel and comics which act as suites.
