Buffy The Vampire Slayer: S1, Episode 11 (Out of Mind, Out of Sight) - Patreon Version

Comments

The show is a little inconsistent with the rules about how vampires work, but in general, it's fairly well established that vampires are physically dead. As such they don't breathe and have no heartbeat or pulse. Also, the limitation with sunlight is generally about direct sunlight. They can handle indirect light most of the time. One other note, Buffy started out as a midseason replacement. That's why the first season is only 12 episodes.

Love this episode. We finally get to have some sympathy for Cordy! By the way, Marcie (Invisible Girl) is played by the actress Clea DuVall, who plays Chuck’s doctor in several episodes of “Better Call Saul”

Chandra your predictions are way too accurate. Are you sure you haven't seen this before? Lol. Trivia, Charisma Carpenter originally auditioned to play Buffy while Sarah Michelle Gellar auditioned to play Cordelia. Imagine the horror 😂😂 😂

Hi Chandra and Jordan - I loved seeing your reaction to this episode. Remember, Buffy was a weekly TV series that shot one episode a week on sets with 12 - 14hr days. They were on a young cable network and didn't have the budget for big effects? So how do you build the world of an angry invisible girl attacking students? Just the way this crew did, using simple practical props, great blocking and acting, creepy pov shots, and sound design. This episode was a other standalone episode exploring another horror idea. Cheers! Dave *Also this episode presents that Angel doesn't breathe like we do. The big conflict in this isn't oxygen, it's breath. He wouldn't talk without breath. This issue will reappear.

I was remembering the same thing! And Buffy was a lot character-wise like Cordelia when she lived in LA before she learned she was the slayer (as shown in the movie version of her character)

I find the scene with Willow wearing a Scooby-Doo T-shirt amusing, because five years later in 2002 Sarah Michelle Gellar would play Daphne Blake in Scooby-Doo the movie and reprise her role for the sequel in 2004.

TIL. My two favourite shows colliding.

Todd Bolton

Buffy's my favorite and BCS is my fourth favorite, so I'm close.

For more Clea Duvall: The Faculty & Identity. She also directed one of my favourite xmas movies, Happiest Season.

I love this episode. The concept of someone becoming invisible because they are not perceived, with the mention of quantum physics, is awesome. And I love the last scene with the government training invisible assassins. And I was quite impressed how early Chandra guessed the main premise. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else get it that early.

This is my first rewatch through since I originally watched years ago, and I remembered hating Cordilia so much. But without saying much, that doesn't last forever ...

Being invisible would be pretty useless because... how does sight work again ? Oh yes... light bouncing off our corneas. Invisible corneas = blindness.

This is supernatural invisibility so natural laws don't apply.

Kenton Kruger

There was a fantasy series I read one time that actually factored that in, where the eyes stayed visible for that reason. Made invisibility less effective, so they mostly used it at night.

That's wild, I can't imagine if they got the opposite roles! And I'm interested to see the movie version of Buffy...

I'm glad the rest of the seasons are twice as long! haha
