Sci Fi corridors!
Johnathan Pearce (London)  How very odd! • Science fiction

Via the David Thompson blog - which has a weird and wonderful collection of oddball stuff every Friday, I came across this aspect of science fiction movies.

Some nifty photos and links on this website as well.

One of the more charming things about the first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is that Sunnydale High School consists entirely of a library and a single corridor. They clearly had no more sets, so everything happens in that corridor. (The library is a place of comfort for the four main characters, and doesn't really count). As the budget got a little bigger, the school got more rooms. Then it was eaten by the principal after he had turned into a giant snake in the season 3 finale, and the show was never the same again.

How I miss it.

The one with the corridors is great. Strange that it doesn't have the ones from 2001 though.
