In 1791, plantation owner Louis De Pointe Du Lac is unhappy with the life he has, until Lestat De Lioncourt comes into his life. Lestat, a vampire, allows Louis to make the decision of either death or life as a vampire forever. And until his decision is already made, does Louis realize what he has become. He refuses to take human life and is about to leave when Lestat, being the clever being that he is, turns a little orphan girl into a vampire to make Louis stay. The story is told by Louis in 1991 to an interviewer about the lives of himself, Lestat and Claudia through trouble, death, curse and love over the past 200 years.
I was intrigued by the idea of a vampire telling his story to a journalist and then actually getting to experience the story as it unfolds. It is a lavish tale of plague and death. I was very amused by the fact that he turned a girl(Kirstn Dunst) into a vampire as well. A good movie for women considering the main characters Louis and Lestat are played by Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise. This movie has the whole package and unless you aren't a vampire film fan then you should like this tale of a vampires life. I give it a 9 out of 10.
