Another film about vampires and one I love, surprisingly.
I have some pretty strong opinions on Tom Cruise, namely that prior to 1997 he made some brilliant films, then he went a little bit weird and it became impossible to watch any film without thinking of the whole Tom Cruise persona. I also don't get the whole Brad Pitt thing. Yet, somehow, there's something about Interview with the Vampire that I adore. I can put these feelings aside, I believe in Tom Cruise's character.
I've seen this movie plenty of times in my life and I always find it enjoyable. It seems aware that it is a bit over the top and ridiculous yet embraces this and runs with it. Plus, it has Christian Slater in it, and I love him.
In fact, my exact thoughts on this film, at the time of watching were:
I hereby appoint myself chairwoman of the campaign to revive Christian Slater's movie career. I miss seeing him in the mainstream.

How have I only just realised it's Interview With THE Vampire, not Interview With A Vampire? How many times have I seen this film?So, there you go. Vampires can be fun and I miss the 90's.
