Interview With the Vampire Review

Interview With the Vampire came out in 1994 and was directed by the ever-cum-stained Neil Jordan. We have used science (and possibly the box cover) to determine that this movie fits perfectly into the "Vampire Drama" genre.

During the time we had our polls open, 204 loathsome viewers just like you weighed in on Interview With the Vampire. 113 of 'em thought it was great! 91 thought it was shit. Takes all kinds.

This is a Dave and Jim's B-Movie Review. This review was written some time between 1996 and 2001. Once you've sucked the marrow from this one, you can head back to the full list to pick another review for savoring. Do it again and again.

Dave's Review

This movie is cool! I mean really cool. Despite being chided for being hollywood "pretty boys", the fact remains that both Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt can act. It was really great to see how differently the three unusual vampires acted throughout the movie. None of them performed in a stereotypical fashion. Instead, I was very convinced by all three characters. A fine movie!

Jim's Review

This is another great vampire movie, probably one of the few that I like. All the characters and events were rather original, and it was really entertaining. I really loved the dark atmosphere that was created in all the settings, it really added a lot to the story. I would rate this movie up near Martin, on my list of vampire movies. If you have not seen it yet, you should get it next time you are in the mood for a dark fantasy movie.
