About this product

Product Information

Horror author Anne Rice penned the screenplay for this full-blooded adaptation of her novel, which chronicles the life of 18th-century nobleman Louis (Brad Pitt) after he is bitten by powerful, charismatic vampire Lestat (Tom Cruise). Though enthralled with the undead lifestyle at first, Louis is unable to warm up to killing humans and grows despondent. To comfort Louis, Lestat creates another vampire (Kirsten Dunst in a star-making peformance), a young girl who from then on cannot age. Antonio Banderas appears as Armand, a 400-year-old vampire, and Christian Slater plays the radio producer who interviews the remorseful Louis. <BR><BR>Director Neil Jordan captures the lush decadence and erotic fervor of the novel, infusing the film with rich, dusky tones. The big budget is well used to bring each period and place to sharply detailed life, and there is no skimping on the blood or immortal angst. Thandie Newton has a small role as Louis's Creole servant near the beginning of the film, and Jordan regular Stephen Rea appears as a Parisian vampire theater star. INTERVIEW broke weekend box-office records when it premiered and has since earned a spot in the pantheon of great vampire films.

ReviewsRolling Stone - ...The movie is hypnotic, scary, sexy, perversely funny and haunting in a way that taps into primal fears..., Entertainment Weekly - "...[INTERVIEW] does right by Rice....[It] honors such great movie fantasists as Jean Cocteau and NOSFERATU director F.W. Murnau..." -- Rating: B, New York Times - ...A sophisticated, spookily intense rendering of [Rice's] story....Cruise is flabbergastingly right for this role...

  • Excellent and Enjoyable Film

    I had not seen this film since it first came out in 1994, but it is still a great film. Not particularly scary, but a cracking film with a great cast and a bit different from usual vampire stories. Well worth the watch......

  • Really good film

    Arrived on time, packaging was good. DVD case looked ok till opened, the centre piece which holds the dvd is broken. No real biggie...at least the dvd itself played well with no problems.

  • Anne Rice's Best Novel

    This is probably Anne Rice's best novel because it appears to be rooted in her own personal experience, especially in the descriptions of New Orleans where she grew up which at times are poetic. I love too its Gothic atmosphere.
