In her essay titled, "Lessons for Seasons Seven of BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER", Elizabeth Rambo made an interesting comment on the fans' reaction to the First Evil:

[31] It is possible to speculate that some negative reactions to the First as seasonal villain may be akin to those who termed the Evil Troika of geeks in season six as "lame" (kdS)"”the First Evil is just too close to
home for most viewers. Who wants to be reminded every week, as Joyce tells the dreaming Buffy, "[E]vil is a part of us. All of us" ("Bring," 7010)? Most would rather see Buffy heroically kick-boxing monsters than
struggling with the real doubts and fears the monsters metaphorically represent.

Well, Caleb kind of pissed me off because he was such a women-hater, and was such a hypocrit! *mumbles under breath* But, the ubervamps were kind of scary, and the bringers were just kind of...weird looking! And, well, the First wasn't too bad. So, that's why I voted for the ubervamps!!
 
I don't know if any bad actually scared me but I do know that some of them I wouldn't want to go up against.

Caleb probably being the worst because he just has that thing with ladies and luring them to their death and how strong he was. He could just kill them right away and how he took Xander's eye out was just disturbing. He would be the closest thing to creepy or scary.
 
im gonna have to say that Caleb was the scariest 'big bad' in season 7 as he was kind of wierd, and he was always going on about how he's all special and stuff.i just think he was really wierd and creepy.
 
Ubervamps to me were. Their faces could keep you up all night, probably why I don't own any mini busts of them...yIkEs
 
I voted the other. Personally I think I got scaried when Buffy was left alone and kicked out of her own house. This was something I haven't come acrossed in BTVS. (So my vote for the scariest bad goes to Scooby Gang) I certainly did not like the gang from that moment. I think Buffy didn't thrust them too (like they didn't trust her) for there were no personal sharing among the gang ever. Buffy returned but not shared herself, she focused on winning. One can say that The First was a powerful enemy which kept Buffy focusing solely on it. I think quite the opposite. Buffy didn't trust any of them which included Spike and Wood and even Giles and the core group and yes her sister but wanted backup unit to stick together till the end so that they could win over the "war". I am not saying she 'used' them or anything. If anything they used her. They threw away a friendship over a night-I meant to say in a split second-and when they realized their lives were at stake, went for her. They used her as a life-jacket, they weren't any more her friends.
 
The unbervamps in the first couple of episodes they showed in I was scared that they might hurt buffy alittle too much and it's not like ONE of them did
Caleb was creepy too and i don't think that Spuffy were creeping i thought they were *romantic*!
 
Season 7 big bads were lame, up until... the entrance of the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog....

Scary!

RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!
 
I dont think any of them were really scary, the first was just pathetic honestly, the "uber vamps" were just ugly, the bringers were weak and ugly, out of all of them i voted for caleb, he wasn't scary but he was definitly creepy, i think it was the whole preacher think and the accent that creeped me out, lol.
 
I loved caleb..yeah I think he was scary..but also the ubervamps..they were creepy! Let's not forget the demon that dawn was beat up by.
 
Caleb and The First.... they were both kinda creepy... and the first always seemed to play with your mind... what a scary thought!
 
How do the bringer's know where they are going? There eyes are.... **Looks around suspiciously**

I would have to say Caleb though, when he burnt that girl.... ouch!!!
 
I would have to say that Caleb was my favourite Big Bad of the season, but not necessarily the scariest. I think the scariest was the first uber vamp, before Buffy could kill it because it just seemed so scary.
 
I dont know how you people think that the ubervamps were scarier than the bringers. The ubervamps were more confusing than scary. It took Buffy a full episode to kill one, but then the rest just fell apart with the tiniest hit. The bringers...they were scary. Couldn't even see you but they could kick your ass ten ways to sunday.
 
For some reason the ubers terrified me. Bring on the Night or Showtime... one of those... I can't remember which one. But it was so scary, the first time one appeared, and it succeeded (I think?) beat the crap out of Buffy.

Plus, I tend to be scared of ugly things, and the ubervamps were hideous.
 
WOW! I voted for Caleb before reading the thread, and sooo many of you agree!

I agree with those of you have posted that Caleb was the scariest because he was a human, albeit a psychotic misogynistic human, but still human all the same!

Oh and OT, where can I find, or who does the amazing Buffy art that users like kanga have as their avatar and/or banner? Its amazing, and so beautiful!

I think that's from a preview of the Season 8 comic. Check the S 8 thread in the comics forum.
