    An indulgent retelling of a beloved novel lands with more style than quality. Seemingly dramatic and rushed this sometimes funny love story toes the line between love and subservience.

Seemingly dramatic and rushed this sometimes funny love story toes the line between love and subservience. And seeks to answer, what happens when a black man becomes powerful but is forced to imitate the state he'd been designated preceding this power. It's medium of an interracial homosexual relationship creates the perfect opportunity to explore what the power dynamics would entail especially in such an era. The story should shorten its pace and flesh out its relationship and then might be in line of being a fantastic debut. Expand

    It's a very beautiful and different adaptation, I'm in love with this, it's different from the book, but it's incredible on his own way, the core of the characters and story are still there despite the changes, i love it

    Fantastic so far! Great performances from Jacob Anderson and Sam Reid, and they have amazing chemistry together as well. Also loved the directing and production design.

    Interview with the Vampire is a series that draws on the themes and characters of the books but adapts the story to fit the following books.

It adapts the setting to the early twentieth century, and the characters shine because of these changes. It allows for an excellent examination of the relationship shared between Louis and Lestat, which is, for the first time in adaptation, presented as entirely homosexual.

    Anne would have loved the way these changes allowed her characters to shine through what was to her a traumatic time and present an inspiring story of the challenges of nihilism and those who may take advantage of the feelings of significant loss.

    The cast is magnificent. The set design and crew have clearly poured their heart into making this series a dream for the senses, which is entirely fitting for Rice's highly sensual vampires.

    Ótima adaptação. Anne Rice ficaria orgulhosa com a forma que decidiram trabalhar o material original.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Trilha sonora perfeita e a interpretação dos atores impecável, estão entregando simplesmente tudo, além de todo o cuidado da produção em cada mínimo detalhe da série. O roteiro traz algo novo, diferente do livro mas ainda conseguimos ver de onde vem a base de tudo, é como uma releitura, a mesma história contada de uma forma diferente e atualizada. Expand

    It’s a credit to the scripts that the testy conversations between journalist and subject are as engaging as the scenes of Louis’s transformation from mortal to (self-loathing) monster.

    Rice's soulful ghouls defy horror-movie cliche. [10 - 23 Oct 2022, p.5]

    Among my favorite TV shows of the year so far. ... AMC’s Interview With the Vampire is lush and operatic. It is gross and disturbing, opening the dam for the sanguine river of blood to flow the way that a show like this should: so that it is as gorgeous as it is upsetting. There are provocative ideas about race and power dynamics filtered through the identity politics of bloodsuckers that, remarkably, work.
