In which some wiener kid makes everyone’s worst nightmare a reality, though strangely none of them including getting your dick ripped off by bear trap, because that is SO totally worse than forgetting to prepare for a history exam, right? I mean, it’s not even close. Dick ripped off by a bear trap wins the nightmare competition hands down. It really would be the worst.
This one was definitely an improvement from last episode in that it didn’t entirely resemble an episode of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. It also wasn’t a total rip off of Nightmare on Elms Street, instead, it was a rip off of one of the early storylines of Alan Moore’s legendary run on Swamp Thing, where a demented kid starts making nightmares come true. For instance in the opening sequence, some random stupid kid opens up his textbook and a bitch load of tarantulas start crawling out! Yowzas! That’s actually alot like my nightmare except instead of seeing spiders when I open a book what I find instead is another man’s spilled seed.
Anyway, it takes Buffy and the dork squad a painfully long time to figure out what’s going on, in the mean time they all face a bunch of cliched fears (like showing up to class in your underwear? Really?) and then Buffy et al save the day and they all retire to the library for an all night vampire blood orgy (I made that last part up).
There’s actually a great line in this one, probably the best quip yet, where Xander makes a joke at Willow’s expense and she gets mad and then faggot Xander says, “It’s funny if you’re me.” That’s a great way to think of this whole show, because more often then not I laugh uproariously at shit that is supposed to be super cereal. Like when Buffy’s nightmare of being the reason her parents get divorced is realized when her dad sits her down and lambastes her with criticisms. It’s fucking hilarious to me, some dad very sincerely telling her daughter that’s she’s a fucking piece of shit. I wish there were more tv shows with scenes like that in it.
They also almost managed to have a show without a rubber suited MOTW but they just couldn’t help themselves, and Buffy had to defeat some kid’s ultimate nightmare of a Chunk from the Goonies looking bad guy with a meatloaf for a hand. Yes that’s right, one of his hands on the giant goon was a tremendous meatloaf.
Despite the plot being almost entirely useless, at least we got some semi-decent characterizations from seeing our heroes face their deepest darkest fears, so the whole thing was a complete waste of time (just mostly).
And Buffy with mutant vampire face? Still bangable, obvi.
Allright, only two more of these fuckin bitches to go!
