  • 4:35 - 4:38

  • 4:38 - 4:43
    It's like a drug to me, you're like my own personal brand of heroin.
  • 4:43 - 4:46
    Oh my god are you twelve?
  • 4:46 - 4:49

  • 4:49 - 4:52
    And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing...
  • 4:52 - 4:56
    ...cause I've fought more then a couple pimply overweight vamps who called themselves Lestat.

Title:
Buffy vs Edward: Twilight Remixed -- [original version]
Description:

In this re-imagined narrative, Edward Cullen from the Twilight Series meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It's an example of transformative storytelling serving as a pro-feminist visual critique of Edward's character and generally creepy behavior. Seen through Buffy's eyes, some of the more sexist gender roles and patriarchal Hollywood themes embedded in the Twilight saga are exposed - in hilarious ways. Ultimately this remix is about more than a decisive showdown between the slayer and the sparkly vampire. It also doubles as a metaphor for the ongoing battle between two opposing visions of gender roles in the 21ist century.
