Before there was Sam Reid and Jacob Anderson, there was Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. While 1994’s Interview with the Vampire is a lot less homoerotic than the current AMC adaptation of Anne Rice’s classic horror novels, director Neil Jordan’s take on Lestat and Louis’s journey through the centuries remains a classic — one you can now preorder on 4K Ultra HD.
The official description of the movie, via Amazon:
Against the backdrop of a gloomy San Francisco, the nearly two-century-old vampire, Louis de Pointe du Lac, recounts the unbelievable story of his eternal transformation and a life worse than death to the sceptic reporter, Daniel Molloy. Spanning two hundred years of cruel betrayals, extreme solitude, and unquenched thirst, Louis’ grimly fascinating tale pivots around his perpetually regrettable decision to embrace the dictatorship of blood, and, above all, his maker: the seductive blonde aristocrat of death, Lestat de Lioncourt. Is Louis’ mystical epic of bloodshed genuine? Is this, indeed, an interview with a vampire?
The new release includes fresh bonus content exploring the film’s cinematography, sets, locations, and costume design, as well as deleted scenes and other extras. The 4K Ultra HD edition of Interview with the Vampire will be released on September 22nd. Preorder it now via Amazon, and revisit the movie by watching the clip below.
