  • Tony, Johanna, and Kira team up to talk about the first movie based of the late Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles. In this movie review/podcast they will talk about all the things that make this great like the performances by Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, its creepy unsettling tone, and how it expertly adapts the source material.
    Born as an 18th-century lord, Louis is now a bicentennial vampire, telling his story to an eager biographer. Suicidal after the death of his family, he meets Lestat, a vampire who persuades him to choose immortality over death and become his companion. Eventually, gentle Louis resolves to leave his violent maker, but Lestat guilts him into staying by turning a young girl -- whose addition to the "family" breeds even more conflict.

    The '90s had a resurgence of vampires and this is one of the best of them.
    The vampires themselves weren't the scariest thing to me in this.
    It was all that Gothic horror atmosphere that creeped me out.

      90's vampires movies are kinda a step above the rest of them not to say that I don't like some of the modern and I almost prefer the classic movies but it feels like everyone tried to make it both enjoyable and exciting also the 80's and 90's were more likely to involve the main thing that is associated with vampires as in blood

    • @Chaoitcme
      @Chaoitcme 2 года назад +3

      Queen of the Damned could have been good but they turned it into an early 2000s movie aimed at teenage girls. And they combined two books into one movie which was just too much.
      When I heard the singer of Korn's voice come out of Lestat I laughed so hard when I first saw the movie as a teenager.
      So bad.

    Madeleine isn’t Louis’ first victim, she’s his first transformation. Louis makes it clear in the conversation about when he “used to eat rats” that he started hunting humans from Claudia on. Side note: whatever benefits it may or may not have, listening to audio books is literally not reading. But good review for a good movie based on a good book.

    @ianfletcher6039 2 года назад +1

    I had read the first three books in the series several years before this movie came out. When I heard Tom Cruise was cast as Lestat, I was seriously doubtful he could pull it off. When I saw it I was blown away by how genuinely strong his performance was. He not only got into the role, he also added something to it.
    If you watch another Neil Jordan film, In The Company of Wolves, you’ll see see some familiar shots between these two films (the scene of the carriage coming out of the mist in this film, and the devil arriving in his car in Company).
    The soundtrack is in my top 5 movie soundtracks of all time. We would often have this in the background during Vampire rpg games.
    In terms of book treatment, there are some very smart revisions to the flow of the story. Not only did this help keep the film length manageable, but it cuts quite a lot of the ennui out of the story that bogs it down. This also helps bring it more in line with the tone of later books.
    Tony, bringing the Whig back!

    on a more serious note, i played Vampire: the masquerade for ages, i've even played the card game with the unfortunate name. Now, the rpg took a lot of liberties with the lore material, but i believe some of the behaviours of the vampires in this movie can be explained using the rpg rules. Lestat should be from the "toreador" clan(even if in modern times he would be in the Sabbath,not in the Camarilla): he is super fast,can read minds and has a magnetic presence( in game it's represented by the celerity,auspex and presence disciplines). Those are core toreador traits. They are also obsessed with aesthetics and Lestat certainly is too. Louis on the other hand would be a Brujah(which is weird since his "father" is a Toreador but i think in the books it wasn't defined yet): super fast, has a sort of animal magnetism about him,he however can't read minds, but has superhuman strength. Those are core brujah traits. Brujahs are the idealists,dreamers and knight errants of the vampire world, which fits Louis perfectly.

Funny enough my Maw Maw was ok with me seeing all the murder but she always made me cover my eyes during the stage stripping scene. She also wondered why I got in trouble for singing Sympathy for the Devil in Catholic school.....
