just a general shoutout to the amazing makeup and effects team on BTVS (and I assume ATS) who helped bring so many fun looking monsters to life. (yes, there were some computer ones, but on a rewatch, it’s wonderful seeing how well quality practical effects can hold up.) we’ve got vampires and werewolves and fish boys and a frat house reptile and loose skinned demons and fyarls and m’fasniks and that yellow guy with arm knives and Glory’s sycophants and the polgara and Sweet and the Gentlemen and vengeance demons and Gnarl and Turok-Han and der Kinderstod and the Suvolte….
