"I'm Going To Give You The Choice, I Never Had!"

Rating: 7/10 (25 June 2012)

Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Kirsten Dunst, Antonio Banderas and Christian Slater star in Neil Jordan's 1994 horror film based on Anne Rice's novel. This begins in San Francisco where we meet 200-year old vampire, Louis (Pitt) who reveals his life-story and his maker, Lestat (Cruise) to reporter, Malloy (Slater). Dunst (Spider-Man) plays Claudia, a young orphan girl who becomes a spoiled vampire created by Lestat and Louis and Banderas (Desperado) plays vampire, Armand. Cruise and Pitt are terrific in this, Stan Winston's make-up effects are great as well as Elliot Goldenthal's score. This is a great vampire film with chilling and dramatic moments. I highly recommend it for any fan of the genre.
