Sam Reid, Jacob Anderson, and Bailey Bass star in AMC's InterviewWithTheVampire, a sexy, thrilling, and multifaceted adaptation of Anne Rice's classic novel. Our review:
There might be no name as ubiquitously linked to contemporary vampire fiction as the late Anne Rice — although you might be surprised to learn that the critical response to her 1976 debut novel, Interview with the Vampire, was initially mixed.
The story of Interview with the Vampire, built around the conceit of the titular vampire relaying his lengthy and complex existence to a naive reporter, wouldn't be nearly as absorbing without an excellent performance to ground its telling — and it is through the eyes of Jacob Anderson's Louis de Pointe du Lac that we are brought into a world of opportunity, violence, loss, and eternity.
From the moment that their characters collide on-screen, Anderson and Reid's chemistry is electric in every exchange; Lestat senses exactly what Louis is inwardly longing for, while Louis initially fights to resist the other man's magnetic pull at every turn.
In many ways, the addition of Claudia is obviously intended to be a Band-Aid on the fang wounds of Louis and Lestat's destructive nucleus, and Bailey Bass' child vampire emerges at just the right time in the series' first season to shake up the established relationship between the two.
