Costume Horror, Horror, Romance, Vampire Film
Against the backdrop of a gloomy San Francisco, the nearly two-century-old vampire, Louis de Pointe du Lac, recounts the unbelievable story of his eternal transformation and a life worse than death to the skeptic reporter, Daniel Molloy. Spanning two hundred years of cruel betrayals, extreme solitude, and unquenched thirst, Louis' grimly fascinating tale pivots around his perpetually regrettable decision to embrace the dictatorship of blood, and, above all, his maker: the seductive blonde aristocrat of death, Lestat de Lioncourt. Is Louis' mystical epic of bloodshed genuine? Is this, indeed, an interview with a vampire?

Review by Chad
Added: February 04, 2004
Very nice movie. It was pretty slow-paced throughout, but never really got boring. The storyline was great, and some suprisingly decent acting from Pitt / Cruise / Banderas. The few major gore scenes were excellently done, as were the effects. And as side-note, the river that Pitt was dumped into around the beginning is just outside of Shreveport, LA, which I've been to.... score for me.
Suppose an 8/10 will do it for this one.

Kirsten Dunst is the most annoying thing ever.
Never managed to get through the book without
beind bored stiff halfway through.

The art direction and production design are what
you most remember from this film. Certainly not
Tom Cruise's over-the-top Lestat or Brad Pitt's
painfully dreadful Louie. The only bright spot,
acting wise, I can remember is from the underrated
Stephen Rea in a wonderful supporting performance.
6/10.

this movie was so damn slow I fell asleep... any
horror movie that can't keep me awake sucks... And
so far no review has convinced me to watch this
thing again... 1/10. Vampire movies continue to
grow sucky-er.

This used to be my favorite movie. I know most of
the script by heart. Not my favorite anymore
because some better stuff came along but that
doent make this movie any less visually stunning.
Not really SCARY but most vampire films ARENT.

Tom Cruise made Lestat even more gay than Anne
Rice did and the best parts of the story were left
out. I did like the end though, for two reasons,
one it was over and the other it was funny. Brad
Pitt was lovely to look at as Louis, but boring
and his voice droned on and on. This one goes in
the crap pile never to be watched again.
Favorite quote:
"I want some
more!"

Probably the laziest review on the site... As for
the movie, it is slow-paced, still the acting is
good and so on. Nothing great, but not bad at all.
5/10
