Interview with the Vampire
After reading the screenplay, i think the film tells the story of Louis, a man who claims to be a vampire, who tells his story to a young reporter. Tracing Louis' history as a plantation owner in Louisiana, his encounter with the vampire Lestat and subsequent transformation into a vampire, the sad story tells of loves and losses, as well as Louis' search for answers and knowledge about vampires.

The screenplay describes Contemporary San Francisco -
Louis de Pointe du Lac tells a journalist the strange details of his
life: how two centuries earlier he was attacked by the degenerate vampire
Lestat; how he rejected his mentor's advice by feeding on rats and poodles; how
the pair 'adopted' a young orphan, Claudia, whose thirst for blood outstripped
even Lestat's; how their individual inclinations and ethical codes gave rise to
lethal tensions between the various members of this bizarre, undead 'family';
and so on. For all its ambitions and visual flair, It's not only not scary,
it's also dull and conventional. The design makes for some heavy dollops
of 'atmosphere'; The major problem lies script which is dramatically repetitive
and philosophically banal. Profoundly unremarkable.
Watch the orignal official trailer!
