Stop me if this gets too confusing. He plays Vlad the Impaler in this week's "Dark Prince: The True Story of Dracula" on USA (Halloween night). He also played Dracula in "Buffy vs. Dracula." I hope he does a more convincing job in this movie than he did on Buffy. Anyway, he also played Anton, the guy whom Sarah Michelle Gellar's character ran off with at the end of her tenure on "All My Children." Just something to keep in mind if you're ever playing a BtVS version of the Kevin Bacon game.

Speaking of Buffy, the other night I watched "I Know What You Did Last Summer." Now, the first time I saw this movie, I'd never seen an episode of BtVS. Not by choice, mind you; it didn't start airing in my area until last year. I knew who Sarah Michelle Gellar was and what she was famous for, but never having seen her in action, I didn't have a problem buying her as a beauty queen victim. This time, however, as she was running for her life from the guy, tripping over her high heels, I found myself shouting at the screen, "Dammit, Buffy! Just turn around and drop-kick the hooked bastard! Why the hell are you taking that shit from a mortal? Kick his ass already!"

Maybe it's a good thing I'll be taking a break from BtVS this week.
