I'll give you that one. He was excellent playing Bill Bixby.

Cape Fear (1961, J Lee Thompson)
Far outstripping the gaudy remake, this taut thriller is still an abject lesson in dynamics. Still watching ...

The Last American Virgin, the 'Ninja Trilogy', Lady Chatterley's Lover, Otello, Lifeforce, Schizoid, Sahara, The Company of Wolves and Highlander are all really good films produced by individually, or in part, by Cannon Films.

Oh dear, while the TV show was funny and thrilling this is just dreadfully unfunny and as scary as Scooby Doo, talking of Scooby Doo it just feels off without the Scooby gang(i know its set before she meets them). the vampires are just laughably, even Rutger Hauer who i usual love was terrible and seemed like he had escaped a pantomime. The only interesting thing was Donald Sutherland's character wasn't a watcher but some-sort of immortal being that was reborn every time he died. also watch out for Ben Affleck in early role as a basketball player. Also in this Buffy had the weird ability that she got the cramps when vampires are near! 5/10

Next up lake mungo, hope this is better than Buffy was

I really like the movie because it is a lot of fun. Also, I think the visceral reaction (cramps) makes a lot of sense – why wouldn't a Slayer have an extreme physical reaction to vampires?

i liked the idea, but with the show they just went with the idea she couldn't sense them unlike other slayers, just found the whole film to silly ansd stupid, but maybe i should not compare it to the show and watch it on its own merits
