Vampires and stuff.

I am not the biggest fan of vampires but Interview with the Vampire is a good story. In a sense it is an interview with a vampire, Louis, who has been alive for 200 years. Louis was a plantation owner in New Orleans who had lost his wife and unborn child and has lost the will to live until he encounters a vampire, Lestat, and he becomes a Vampire. Louis is depressed until he meets and turns a little girl named Claudia and considered her his daughter. I enjoy this story mainly because it goes between Louis life from the beginning of his vampire life to him talking about it with the journalist interviewing him. Some of the aspects that all vampires deal with is the sexual tension between themselves and there victims as well as turning people into vampires whether they are full grown person or a child. It is not a sexual thrill they get out of it it is more it is a feeling of ecstasy and pure satisfaction. For Louis it is a necessary evil and he has trouble killing people because he is attached to his former human life. This story does not go through a lot of details of what a vampires traits are but the psychology of what it is like to be immortal and not change. This is not a vampire story about sucking blood and killing people it is about the aspects of what it is like to be a vampire struggling to have a family, emotions, and dealing with immortality. This interview is more than just a conversation between two people. This is a vampire movie that does not feel like a story about vampires because it goes into aspects not explored in this genre and it is done in a very gripping and interesting way. Interview with the Vampire gets a thumbs up from me it is a take on vampires that I would like to see more in this genre.
