Yeah and disgusting feeding off a rat Eww!! 😣 Edit: I don’t know why I said this I guess I was disgusted and didn’t think about he can’t get illness or disease
One part I love, that nobody seems to appreciate , is when instead of applauding claudia's piano playing he taps his cane on the floor. What a highborn aristocratic snobbish badass.
That was a flaw I'd found with the original book, even if it's a well-written favorite. Louis tended to lapse into these brooding, self-existential monologues that dragged portions of the story, nearly grinding them to a halt. Anne Rice had the right idea when she shifted the narrative to Lestat in her second vampire chronicle novel. I found it juiced up the pace and, let's face it, Lestat's the more likeable and complex character in the end. Possessed this main protagonist quality that was suited for many adventures.
Exactly. He has a very predatorial something. He doesn't strikes you as a killer, but something inside him, maybe the lack of humanity, makes us uneasy around the guy. In that aspect, Cruise NAILED the character from the book.
I always enjoyed how Lestat laughs when Louis rushes him; like the idea of Louis actually trying to beat him to death is so absurd as to be laughably adorable.
I've almost finished this entire series, I'm a little sad (actually more than a little) to be honest, These books really have enlightened me in many ways I did not think possible! Lestat is always been my favorite though, Tom Cruise really did a great job portraying him!
I'm rereading the series, getting ready to read the last 2. RIP Anne Rice.. 😢 Akasha has always been my favorite. But, Louis runs a close second. And poor Claudia.
I absolutely adore this movie, and Lestat's laugh is the kind where it's impossible not to laugh with him. But who holds a cup like Louis does??? I seriously paused the movie to say "the hell?" when I was watching it. :)
Louis still respects life and as Armand says it makes him beautiful. The fact that he doesn't like killing makes him unique and makes him still feel at least a little human. I think he's an interesting character.
It's better with his much lengthier Narration in the book. Because he's a deeply religious person. And because Holly objects do not harm him this shows he's probably not damned. So this contradiction just eats at his mind.
@@klaraluz In the books? Not so much. At least not in the end. He became cold and ruthless eventually and surprisingly Lestat later claimed his anger towards him for saying "so many lies about him"
Louis is a bad vampire. he's described in the later books as imperfect. which is why Lestat was so cruel in the first book. he loved Louis and needed him to become perfect or he'd die. I love that about Lestat.
I totally agree. The book "The Vampire Lestat" is my favorite, cause you can know more about his life before he turned into a vampire, and even after he became a vampire. I mean he was awesome as a human and more awesome as a vampire :)
Obviously what made me angriest about this whole movie was that they NEVER kissed. Not ONCE. And SO MANY homoerotic undertones,it was like watching porn.
It's not homoerotic. Their humanity is gone. It's part of the psychology of the characters. It's the tragedy of beautiful vampires who cannot truly appreciate beauty because the only desire is of blood. So much so that they project feelings of "desire" on other areas of life. Like fake romance and fake sexuality. It's just expression for them. They don't desire sex, or romance. They desire blood. But with deceptive personalities, they try to seem human to appeal to one another's longing for their own humanity. Longing is one of the strongest and most consistent emotions for a vampire. And they manipulate each other using the very longing and bloodlust that they themselves feel.
Lestat loves Louis dearly and Louis alternates between tolerating and despising Lestat. Now, if "The Vampire Lestat" were ever made into a film, I would expect Lestat and Nicki to kiss.
They don't love each other like that: they are no longer men, and not driven by ordinary hungers. And in any case, Louis hates Lestat for robbing him of his humanity.
Those of us who have read the books know that Lestat was in fact the far more carrying vampire. Lestat rarely killed innocent people but gave Louis the choice to freely decide without lestat telling him what to do.
Exactly. :) I'm re-reading the series for the third time now and I'm on "The Vampire Lestat" at the moment. I'm dressing up as him for Halloween this year as well. It's going to be a fun Halloween! :D
Kavithaashri Samarajoo Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise both Looked very Handsome and beautiful to me, I Can't choose Because I Love Both LESTAT AND LOUIS #Loustat
Yeah most the of people Lestat killed were not nice people. But he did some times kill the innocent. But as Lestat told Louis god kills inderscrimately and no creature is so god as vampire . I mean Lestat wasn’t a Bad person yet Magnus killed him by turning him into a vampire and god let it happen. It’s kind of sad if You think about it.
Poor rat and poodles. I really, really hope they weren’t hurt, harmed or killed for real. I love Lestat and Louis though. Louis is cute. May Lestat, Louis, the animals, Anne Rice, the rest of the cast and the other makers all be perfectly well, healthy, happy and safe, and may they also always be kind and compassionate, and feel no ill effects, only positive effects... Have the best day and night ever!
I read the books in the order written and I still preferred Lestat over Louis in IwtV...I don't know, but Lestat just as a more unpredictable and interesting character than Louis does. I was glad the remaining of most of the series revolved around him, to say the least. Louis may be sentimental, but I couldn't handle his whining for 4+ books...Thank God for Lestat's perspective on life! All hail the Brat Prince!
It's too bad that Cruise wasn't offered more villain/ambiguous roles (or that he didn't accepted more ? But I think it's less likely) In Collateral, In Interview with a vampire, or even in his cameo in Tropic Thunder he's great, I feel like he's enjoying playing these characters more than the hero
Ugh! My heart broke when I read you don't like Louis. Of course Louis isn't a "good vampire". That's the entire point of his tale. He's a good person, but a terrible vampire. And all the vampires desire him, because he's the most human of them all. Everything in the entire Vampire Chronicle series is set into motion by Louis and his interview with Daniel Molloy. In Queen of the Damned, Akasha turns to Louis and tells him he's the most dangerous of them all. Because he holds everything in and snaps on anyone/thing he can feed on when he can't hold back anymore. Lastly, Louis IS Anne Rice's interpretation of herself, her loss of religious faith and her mourning the loss of her 5 year old daughter, Michelle. I adore Louis!
God, they need to make more good vampire movies really (soon)!!!!! I mean, I think twilight isn't that bad, but I don't like being left with in fresh in my head because no one has made a better vampire movie like interview with a vamp yet..
I love Louis but sometimes I wish I could just slap him and tell him to shut up. (Granted, Lestat has this effect on me as well, especially in Tale of The Body Thief and Memnoch the Devil)
Remember in human life Lestat was the wolfkiller. Killing an entire pack of wolves and the town folks skinned the wolves and made Lestate a red velvet cloak lined with gray wolf fur pelts. his beginning were in the book "Lestat". so he was always brave and strong ....Louis is the "artistic" type!
Even though Louie wasn't a very good vampire he did have a human morality and sense of having a conscience to know what is right and what is wrong even though he made the mistake of biting a young girl lestat was extremely foolish and didn't know the laws of turning people immortal so Louie had to loose his beloved daughter and his new wife due to lestat's ignorance but in the end Louie was a better vampire than lestat .
He was blonde. He was described as yellow-blonde with grayish blue eyes that turned into iridescent purple up to one point. Marius was blonde too indeed. Louis was not brunette but black-haired with green eyes. Armand was not black-haired but of auburn hair and sometimes curly. Akasha had black eyes and not green Claudia and Gabrielle were both blonde with curly hair and blue eyes

I love how he strokes the rat like it's a treasured pet before and after draining it! Truly a psychopathic gallant xD
Yeah and disgusting feeding off a rat Eww!! 😣
Edit: I don’t know why I said this I guess I was disgusted and didn’t think about he can’t get illness or disease
sunset1289 he’s a vampire stfu
Lestat is a hot mess 🤣🤣🤣
He is not psychopathic. He is an opportunitic predator. He long ago accepted what he is, and so he is more adaptive than Louis.
One part I love, that nobody seems to appreciate , is when instead of applauding claudia's piano playing he taps his cane on the floor. What a highborn aristocratic snobbish badass.
Faithshade 1 I noticed too!!
Hahaha well he WAS an aristocrat after all! I suppose old habits die hard!
Yes yes, tut tut.
Yeah I love that scene 😂❤️
Oh Louie Louie Louie... Always whining!! I can't get over how MAGNIFICENT Cruise was in this.
That was a flaw I'd found with the original book, even if it's a well-written favorite. Louis tended to lapse into these brooding, self-existential monologues that dragged portions of the story, nearly grinding them to a halt.

He's like a moody emo teenager with Lestat heh, any more emo and those lawns woulda cut themselves and everyone elses
those teenager pink letters in the beginning of the video... god...
I know, they make me think of a grumpy emo teenage girl
haha
this silly condescending comment... god...
OMG RIGHT?! I said the same thing! Lmao
@@joshtheegotist lmao
Man, the makeup work on Tom Cruise was fantastic.
He looks like a bloodthirsty wolf on "vampire mode".
Exactly. He has a very predatorial something. He doesn't strikes you as a killer, but something inside him, maybe the lack of humanity, makes us uneasy around the guy. In that aspect, Cruise NAILED the character from the book.
+Dr Wolfenstein yes! well saif
Wolf? A Vampire?? Ain't that a bit ironic?

Damn lestat is officially the most Handsome man Alive
I love how when Lestat laughs you cant help but smile too. But at the same time part of me is looking at those fangs and going "... hoooly crap!"
Poor Louis. Cursed with the emotions of a human in the body of a vampire.
Love this movie. Watched it so many times. Both Pitt and Cruise really excelled themselves in this film.
Lestat's laugh makes me smile
Same
Lois is not a good vampire but he is a good man
Wise words
He is the most human of all vampires. The book says so.
The book also says he's the most ruthless hunter of them all. Good man? Maybe not.
@@klaraluz In the books? Not so much. At least not in the end. He became cold and ruthless eventually and surprisingly Lestat later claimed his anger towards him for saying "so many lies about him"
Tom cruise was short to play lest at but he did an extremely good job of playing lestat
I could watch these all day. I love Lestat. you did a good pick.

It’s true that Rice’s vampires don’t have or desire sex, but Lestat does love Louis romantically. He says so himself in his own book.
This movie got a lot of bad rep for its homoerotic undertones back in 90s. Small-minded audience and all.
I would gladly Obey Lestat
💀

Yes! Lestat kills the evil doer, Louie kills indiscriminately.
@@danibee9943 lestat did at time kill innocent people and even children …. But not as rule but the exception to it.

ah lestat dont we all love him
Brad Pitt looks handsome. But Tom Cruise looks even more handsome than Brad Pitt. I really love Cruise😙😙😙

Yes! I love Cruise. He can jump on all the couches he likes! He's still very talented!!!!
Tom Cruise always has been so handsome
TC iS awesome 😍
Brad Pitt is beautiful. Tom Cruise is handsome. Difference.
Most of the people Lestat killed were evil doers
According to Lestat.
Let's remember Babette's brother.
Well I said "most people" lol
+Dr Wolfenstein Hey, Babette's brother was not a good person. Lestat even says so in "The Vampire Lestat."
Yeah most the of people Lestat killed were not nice people. But he did some times kill the innocent. But as Lestat told Louis god kills inderscrimately and no creature is so god as vampire . I mean Lestat wasn’t a Bad person yet Magnus killed him by turning him into a vampire and god let it happen. It’s kind of sad if You think about it.
THATS IT!! I am watching the move tonight for the bajillionth time 🙂❤
But you can't kill me louis!! *laughs* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Have the best day and night ever!
Lestat x Louis
Kiliel ship I ship🙏
I ship it soooo badly 😂😍🤩
Lestat is just so unf... And I love a man who can enjoy a good laugh (at Louis' expense). ;D

I hate that part where the poor dogs had died.
Yes, me too! I thought I was the only one. :(
Well maybe if the damn dogs had shut their yaps, Louis wouldn't have been provoked into killing them.
@@thelordofsalem3044 Maybe your the same way.
If only the Queen of the Damned movie had been written this well... *sigh*
And if Lestat was TC
Tom Cruise reminds me of Carlisle from the twilight series
Hmm spoken like a true millennial.
I'll take that as a compliment, considering I posted that a year ago haha
+Faithshade 1 I reckon! lol but give them a break for they have nothing else to compare them with
He reminds of Klaus from originals ruthless who always want people to only think about him
You put all the reasons I love him into two and a half minutes
Tom cruise is fenomenal
You cant spell.
An awesome film ...great casting
Lol I thought they were going to kiss at 1:37
Get rid of my anxiety lestat pls
It's too bad that Cruise wasn't offered more villain/ambiguous roles (or that he didn't accepted more ? But I think it's less likely)
In Collateral, In Interview with a vampire, or even in his cameo in Tropic Thunder he's great, I feel like he's enjoying playing these characters more than the hero
hahahahahaha i love the scene when lestat give rat´s blood to Louis xD

great selections! nice choise
God, they need to make more good vampire movies really (soon)!!!!! I mean, I think twilight isn't that bad, but I don't like being left with in fresh in my head because no one has made a better vampire movie like interview with a vamp yet..
That is what I had to put up with for centeries, my beloved companions/lovers are crazy but I love them both for it no matter how crazy they get💖
At 1:36 they get inches from each other,, not to mention Les was making some,, pretty excited noises when he was being pushed around
Favorite part is when he broke through the window.
My faveorite scenes too and others haha XD !! (mostly with lestat)
Hehe, you "evil tyrant" :-))) The rats will have little ratty stress issues after seeing this clip.
He was such a babe.
I still have to buy three or four books more to complete the entire The Vampires Chronicles of Anne Rice.
My last addition was Armand The Vampire.
LMAO this is my favorite scene
.youve condemned me to hell 😂
Hmm..... He prefers the blood of the animals, Lestat wants to change him..
Looks like Damon and Stefan xD
Great movie 👍
Hahaha it's pretty funny because that's such a fake rat hahah
as i remeber lestat did became a bit nice in the end heck he didnt killed the media guy or the interviewer guy
This scene is believable as long as you've never tried picking up a rat.
O.O wow that part aways gets to me
Louis - Very depressed Doctor.
Lestat - The Master.
Lestat: I don't know any hell
Me: What!?!?!??
funny guy thanks man
I love Louis but sometimes I wish I could just slap him and tell him to shut up. (Granted, Lestat has this effect on me as well, especially in Tale of The Body Thief and Memnoch the Devil)
thank you :)
Good clip!
Career best performance from Cruise.
He doesn't know any hell 😆😆
1 thing about Tom Cruise he nails ever role he plays 😅
Remember in human life Lestat was the wolfkiller. Killing an entire pack of wolves and the town folks skinned the wolves and made Lestate a red velvet cloak lined with gray wolf fur pelts. his beginning were in the book "Lestat". so he was always brave and strong ....Louis is the "artistic" type!
@andrion waser I don't think she brought in Lillith and I have read all the books. so maybe....there is another book in her?
i totally agree the vampire lestat was the BEST of the books ... the circus was the best
cruise has aged alot better than pitt
YOYOdaMOOSE It is the Scientology 😂😂 jk
Even better than Kristen Dunst
that's because Brad was an alcoholic
Rat: Mr. Rat Roflmao xDDD I love these scenes too. :D
Real men who real men where, if he isnt a vampire three times older than me I dont want it.
I love lestat
Luis stupit
did anybody hear his cute laugh its so cute i just hade to record it and put it on my ring tone.
why dont you just upload the whole movie
Even though Louie wasn't a very good vampire he did have a human morality and sense of having a conscience to know what is right and what is wrong even though he made the mistake of biting a young girl lestat was extremely foolish and didn't know the laws of turning people immortal so Louie had to loose his beloved daughter and his new wife due to lestat's ignorance but in the end Louie was a better vampire than lestat .
aww poor rat!!!!!!!!!!!
(i have pet rats that are sitting on my shoulder watching this with me right now XD)
I bet they are like WTF dude
I find it a bit over the top the way Louie drank from the glass
So you say Louis isn't a good vampire...well at least Louis is lots more better and beast than Edward can ever be!
Yes, me too. :)
lestat is hallirous i love him
Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt are pretty sexy looking vampires. I’ve just started reading the book! I’ve seen this movie already
Lvl 1 vs a lvl 400 in a nutshell
Lestat isnt the blonde the blonde is marius
In the book both he and Marius were blonde.
He was blonde. He was described as yellow-blonde with grayish blue eyes that turned into iridescent purple up to one point.
Marius was blonde too indeed.
Louis was not brunette but black-haired with green eyes.
Armand was not black-haired but of auburn hair and sometimes curly.
Akasha had black eyes and not green
Claudia and Gabrielle were both blonde with curly hair and blue eyes
I personally love Louie! he a beast!
I thought drinking dead blood kills them?
Brittany Helms, I assume your referring to the rat?...it was bitten but not killed straight away it was alive and made to bleed out into the glass.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I hate autocorrect I said lestat
Turn it off then.
Louis or lestat.....? Girls?
Was the pink letters in the video really necessary?
ken Hudson I was 18 when I made this. I thought they looked good.
kristinathetrex I liked it lol that teeenage aesthetic 2000s
Louis is awesome he is a good vampire he doesn't kill that is what a a pore should be
I usually hate Tom Cruise, but Lestat is my favourite!
Exelente...
Louis is the best all vampires should be good
軍隊と仕事して3日目🐈
tom cruise did a good job as Lestat but i still picture steward townsend as Lestat
DERSCHWARZE VOGEL yuk
DERSCHWARZE VOGEL why? Townsend was the worst possible version of Lestat.
Honestly Townsend was disgusting as Lestat. But to be fair he also had a terrible script to work with. Plus Lestat is SUPPOSED to be BLONDE.
Louis is such a letdown.
