From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) vs Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles (1994)


which is better ???

I am unable to help you, Howie. My theatrical experience with vampire so far is limited to the classic Dracula Universal films and "The Munsters" TV series and its subsequent films; fun stuff to sink one's teeth into - or not!

Grandpa Munster was a blast.

It depends on your taste and preferences. Both movies succeed on their artistic merits.

For me, personally, Dusk Till Dawn was the more enjoyable movie.

It fully embraced its campiness. George Clooney was actually interesting here before he became Hollywood 'royalty' slumming his way through later roles. Plus Salma Hayek... nothing more need be said.

Interview with the Vampire was one of Tom Cruise's rare misfires. I had read a few of the books. To my mind, Lestat looked more like Stuart Townsend portrayed him in Queen of the Damned... tall, fine-featured. Short Tom Cruise, with his large nose, pancake makeup and slightly fey manners seemed laughable, not threatening. (I say this as someone who enjoys almost every Tom Cruise movie I've ever seen...)
