Interview with the Vampire

[DeathsHand]

This may be a bit long but c'mon, give it a chance :<

It's a movie, for those who don't know...

Anyways, I saw this awhile ago and lovesed it... It stars Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Kirstin Dunst, and Antonio Banderas...

Brad Pitt plays Louis, who is telling an interview guy (Christian Slater) about his life... a plantation owner dude who lost his wife and daughter, and with them, his will to live... So Lestat (Tom Cruise) comes into the picture and basically gives Louis a choice to be killed (I think) or become a vampire... And so he becomes a vampire, but ends up not liking to kill humans, whereas Lestat loves it and yada yada so Lestat is like training Louis to be a normal vampire instead of drinking from rats all the time

Kirstin Dunst plays this wee child Claudia (I think she was 13 at the time, but she was supposed to be younger in the movie) that Louis finds and yada yada...

And Antonio Banderas plays this guy who's like the oldest living vampire...

And I thought it was a very good movie... I'll take a couple quotes from buying reviews on amazon

" 'Interview With the Vampire' is NOT a horror film, though it is populated with those blood-sucking horror favorites. It IS a passionate tale of love and seduction, regret and revenge, tinged with humor throughout."

"Tom Cruise did an excellent job of playing Lestat. He brought the character to life, from Lestat's mysterious anger at the world right down to his hysterical laughing fits. Brad Pitt also did a great job of portraying the sad and hopeless Louis."

Anyways... I give it like... a 9 out of 10!...

Oh but if you're all like "Oh no that's vulgar!" then.....

"This movie is very graphic, and contains an explicit nudity scene. If you don't like blood, I wouldn't recommend watching this!"

...... *cough* Infact I read this thing where this person was all like "THIS MOVIE IS JUST WRONG! ALL THE MEN THEY KILL DIE FAST, WHEREAS THEY LIKE TO PLAY WITH AND PRETTY MUCH TORTURE THE WOMEN YADA BING DINGY BONG I LIKE TO BITCH AND MOAN!"... stupid people

And the vampires in this movie aren't all like... "HISSSSSS *BITE BITE BITE SUCK SUCK SUCK*!"... It's all like... They have real problems and real emotions and all that Claudia has to deal with never being a grown woman, Louis needs to adjust to killing humans to survive, (he also goes on a lil' quest to find "more of his own kind") etc etc...

Oh and if you don't know, it was made back in 1994, so it's not in the theaters or anything

So has anybody seen it?

*watches as topic drops off the page*... oh well at least I tried...

I saw the movie...and I agreed with every reviewer on amazon.com

EDIT: How it be done say cat no bob











Good movie though. Should have read the book.

I liked it. I was scared when it first came out (I was about 15).

But it was like you said. About love, and all that.

And DAN, this is how it's done

Yeah it is, but I read that it was very loosely based on the book and that it wasn't very good... And QotD is the third book in the series... Interview with the Vampire was first, then The Vampire Lestat, then QotD... and then like 3 other things

But I'll probably end up seeing it eventually just for the heck of it

The soundtrack is nice though

I wanna read the whole series of books but god I hate my mom... "Oh those are very adult books"... umm... They're just books

She wants me to read more, but what I want to read she doesn't approve of

[Joeiss]

Kind of sounds like my mom, but I wanted to read Playboy instead of vampire books.


And I liked Queen of the Damned. It wasn't as good as interview with a vampire, but it was pretty desent. I think I might read the second installment to fill in all of the lose ends.

I saw the movie. It was pretty good. It was gross when the guy who didn't like to kill humans was getting it on with this one woman. And as a sidenote, this particulary woman happens to have roundest, rubbery rack in the world. So there working it in a chair and he starts to "unpeel" her. At first it was just innocent, fun loving, mouthing but then he couldn't resist any longer and he "pops" one of them and ends up making a huge mess.
