Interview With The Vampire. 1994.
You don't have to be a big Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt fan to enjoy this film, both actors who didn't get on well behind the scenes manage to start the story brilliantly as a lost man who seeks death and welcomes a new way of life and tells his story.
Neil Jordan who gave us The Company Of Wolves and comedy horror High Spirits does turn up the horror and blood factor and not shy about delivering it out. Kirsten Dunst is brilliant as the newly orphan in a plagued ritten world and becomes the daughter to both Louis and Lestat and able to lure victims to their deaths. Antonio Banderas appearance is something out of a Dracula film, the black face and pale skin but manages to bring a strong presence to the screen as the oldest living vampire and able to bring something of calmness delivering his dialogue and be tempting to lure another man to join to be a new pupil. Like every old vampire films there is the showing of the gothic tone atmosphere within the cities and underneath it with a haunting background score.
