10 Movies Turned Into Shows

10-20th-Television

10. Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Where can a movie, revolving around a shallow high school cheerleader that gets told that she’s a powerful being destined to kill vampires, get picked up by TV show production teams and end up being one of the biggest cult classics of television? Well, on planet Earth of course.

1992’s Buffy The Vampire Slayer was not a completely terrible movie, but it was bluntly generic and no quantity of feminist subtext could have ever saved it.

Yet, “Buffy The Vampire Slayer” series was, and still is, one of the most loved shows that ever existed.

The series is an avid metaphor for growing up, well wrapped into an underground, occult yet light atmosphere, filled with witty lines and teenage problems.
