I vant Buffy!

Well, true the actor is no Bela Lugosi or Christopher Lee. I would've enjoyed an actor of some depth to give Drac some real weight. That said, though the actor they chose isn't awful and still has some fun with the role. I rather enjoyed this take on the myth and I like when Buffy opens up the Buffyverse to classic creature feature characters. I enjoyed Xander turning into Drac's lackey, too always a lot of fun.

Nicholas Brendan is a good enough actor that I got his "giggly" nods toward the incredible Dwight Frye's laughter in the original unless this was just a brilliant mistake. Either way I very much enjoyed this episode and season V as a whole. Just like most Buffy episodes and seasons it was one of the most entertaining shows on TV ever.
