90s Gothic #2: Interview with the Vampire (1994)

Kirsty, Stella, Ian and Dan return to their survey of Hollywood's procession of Gothic horrors from the 1990s with the one non-Columbia/TriStar/Zoetrope film on the list - but a film we couldn't possibly leave out - Neil Jordan's sumptuous adaptation of Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire.  But how does it look to modern eyes?  And is the apparently ageless Tom Cruise actually a vampire in real life?  And which names will Ian drop this week?   Relevant Links and Availability Interview with the Vampire, Byzantium and The Expanse are all currently available for free streaming to Amazon Prime subscribers in the UK (Interview is also available on DVD).
