"I'm flesh and blood, but not human. I haven't been human for 200 years." A reporter wants to know Louis de Pointe du Lac's life story, and with a lifespan stretching back to the 1700's, Louis has plenty of life to discuss. Based on the novel by Anne Rice, 1994's Interview with the Vampire has a bit of life to celebrate itself, as a 20th Anniversary Blu-ray of the star-studded film has been announced for this fall.
Set for a September 30th release from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment, the 20th Anniversary Blu-ray of Interview with the Vampire comes with a new conversation with author Anne Rice about how her work has affected the depictions of vampires in modern-day entertainment, as well as the special features included in the 2008 Blu-ray edition.
Directed by Neil Jordan off a screenplay by Anne Rice, Interview with the Vampire stars Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Antonio Banderas, Stephen Rea, Kirsten Dunst, and Christian Slater.
Here is the synopsis and special features (courtesy of Blu-ray.com!):
"When grieving 18th century mortal Louis (Brad Pitt) accepts an offer of everlasting life from charismatic vampire Lestat (Tom Cruise), he quickly realizes that his dark gift is also a curse that requires him to kill to survive. An eternity of blood, lust and torment awaits in this thrilling and visually stunning film that redefined the vampire genre."
