ANGEL: season 2
Following the success of the Angel Season 1 DVD, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment have responded to the overwhelming demand for this amazing 6 disc set to be in widescreen. The UK (region 2 DVD) will be the only country offering this release in the widescreen format and with a mouthwatering array of special features this is a boxset you can really delve into.
Amongst this DVD boxset are featurettes, stills galleries, commentaries, scripts and cast biographies. There is a ‘Making up the monsters’ feature showing an amazing look into the makeup on the show from beauty to demon and see a step by step look at the making up The Host. Another is dedicated to ‘The stunts of Angel, a look behind-the-scenes at creating the stunts on Angel with an interview with stunt double for David Boreanaz, Mike Massa.
In what many see as the strongest season so far, this classic mix of comedy, drama and horror promises to be as successful as its Buffy and Angel predecessors. The devilish Angel (David Boreanaz) is back in full force with his ravishing Angel Investigations colleagues, Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) and Wesley (Alexis Denisof) and are joined by a new street-wise vampire hunter, Charles Gunn (J August Richards).
Angel is increasingly haunted by his dark past and traumatised by prospects of the future. In a series of terrifying flashbacks he questions his identity becomes completely consumed with fighting his inner demons. All the time he is unaware that this restless sleep is a result of nocturnal visits from Darla. Meanwhile, Angel Investigations become ever more concerned that the tormented Angel may revert to his sinister and evil ways.
The distraught Angel battles with his past life as Angelus and what he has become as Angel. After an empty night of passion with Darla, Angel surprisingly wakes up with his soul still intact and has an epiphany. Following this flash of clarity he tries to reunite with his team, Cordelia, Wesley and Gunn.
Angel goes back to work with Angel Investigations, as the fearless foursome take to the streets Cordelia gets a surprise visit from her old high-school friend Harmony. Unaware her flaky friend is a bloodsucker, Cordelia mistakes her strange behaviour for lesbianism. Once her neck biting tendencies are out the ever loyal Cordelia resolves to give her undead friend a chance at fighting for the good guys.
After being inadvertently sucked into a dimensional portal, Cordelia finds herself stuck in the Host's home world, Pylea, a place where human’s are treated like slaves. Angel, Wesley, the Host and Gunn work on how to get her back. They decide that the only acceptable, but nonetheless risky, plan is to go to Pylea themselves and eventually succeed.
The monumental season climaxes with another monster slaying session and Angel being visited by Willow, with some deathly news…
