Interview With The Vampire (Neil Jordan, 1994)



Interview With The Vampire presents a different approach to the vampire mythos. That of the curse. The curse of being a vampire and have to feed yourself with blood daily. A highly alluring movie that looks inside the heart of a kind vampire, a martyr, who has to put up with that incredible thirst while he has swore not to drink from a human being. Interview With A Vampire is a movie that presses reset to vampire stories and begins again by giving to the audience a story of torment, sorrow and grief. The highly atmospheric gothic set and the darkly tone give a sense to the movie like you are watching a tearful drama. And that is truth, Interview With A Vampire apart from being a horror movie, is mostly a drama film about the misfortunes of one man. A hero who is dressed in black, but not his clothes, but his heart. A hero who is struggling every day to find the strength to go through this nightmare. A hero who is opening his heart to us and lets in to his life, a life that is full of pain and remorse. Louis is a character for whom many poems can be written, is a character that shatters our fragile heart, is a character that wins us and makes us his. Louis stands a human being more than real human beings stand. Louis is a hero, a anonymous man who fights every single day of his life. Louis is one of the greatest characters that we have seen in a movie and Interview With The Vampire is definitely and without a doubt a memorable vampire film filled with eerie atmosphere, pure and unspoiled emotion and a kind heart that makes us all bow to its greatness and to its wondrous class and ethos. A movie that gives human characteristics and human fragility to the undead. A real classic, a triumph of love and power of will.
