Interview With the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles | 1994 | R | - 9.9.1
Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt star as vampires trying to come to terms with their nasty natures.
SEX/NUDITY 9 - The sex scenes involve a man who passionately kisses a couple of women and a man who is shown on top of a woman (both clothed), sucking her neck and thrusting his hips as she wraps her legs around him. There's a lot of nudity -- heaving bosoms are plentiful -- and a couple of scenes of total frontal nudity (there's a lingering shot of a completely nude woman).

VIOLENCE/GORE 9 - Many shots of bloody fang-marks, as well as bloody fangs. Necks and wrists are shown being punctured with a metal hook (shown in close-up). A vampire drains the blood from many rats, another breaks a rat's neck and drains the blood into a goblet. A vampire's throat is slit and an ugly gash is shown along with a puddle of blood. Numerous vampires are set on fire (one is shown with charred skin), decapitated, and cut in half. A young female vampire is burned by the sun. A plague victim is shown with sores on the face and hands. A decayed corpse is shown.
LANGUAGE 1 - A couple of mild profanities.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Vampires, Satan and good vs. evil, survival.
MESSAGE - You cannot deny your true nature.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
