So far it's in 3rd place with only 15% of the vote. So let's make it happen! Go vote!

From the creator, Jonathan McIntosh:

“Buffy vs Edward” is an example of transformative storytelling in which Edward Cullen from the Twilight Series meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer at Sunnydale High School.

The remix was created by methodically re-editing and re-combining clips from the Twilight movie with scenes from 36 different television episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Since its online debut last summer “Buffy vs Edward” has been viewed nearly 3 million times and has been translated into 30 different languages by fans (including Japanese, Bahasa Indonesian, Haitian Creole and Tagalog).
