Fluffy the English Vampire Slayer
Encyclopedia : F : FL : FLU : Fluffy the English Vampire Slayer
Fluffy the English Vampire Slayer is a Buffyverse fan-made production; more specifically, it is a short film parodying the TV series, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer".
Despite being described as "one of the first widely watched Whedonverse fan films"[#endnote_wired], reviews of "Fluffy" have been mixed. Some appreciate the parody, (for example a BBC reviewer who says "it works in my book."[#endnote_bbc]), the film also has a fan site[#endnote_fan]. Others are less positive of the production: As of July 2006, the film's rating on Internet Movie Database was 3.3 out of 10.
Story description
Fluffy, a vampire slayer based in England, has to defeat the evil Count Von Whedon when he gets his hands on a magical ring giving him surprising new powers.
Whilst on a routine patrol, Fluffy is surprised by a vampire who does not die when she stakes him. At her American Watcher's (Farmer) house the next day she and her gang research the unusual vampiric encounter.
Fluffy, Ash and Alex go back to the place where Fluffy met the mysterious vampire but come face-to-face with an old enemy. Fluffy and Alex are led into a lair of vampires and must fight for their lives - while Farmer and Ash attempt to use technology to save them.
