Good Campy Fun

The acting and writing of this show is below par but the show delivers what it promises, campy fun with cheesy fights and a busty demon huntress who wears very tight or revealing shirts. This show is obviously trying to cash in on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer model and does a relatively good job for what must be a very low budget show. When you consider that it is also impressive that this show has some very good CGI in it, much better than you would expect in most low budget Canadian TV shows. Some of it seems a bit dodgy, like the laser bars in their prison cells, but most of it is as good quality as you would expect in most Hollywood movies, not something like Avatar but you know what I mean. It doesn't deliver as much as Buffy or Firefly but if you don't expect serious scifi and want a bit of fun campiness Summer Vale delivers!
