Queen of the Damned News

11/19/08 Six years after Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt surprised Anne Rice fans with a commercially-successful adaptation of the author's novel Interview with the Vampire , Warner Bros. rushed into production on a follow-up, skipping Interview's direct sequel The Vampire Lestat in favor of shooting a revamped version of Rice's sexier third book; the result was 2002's Queen of the Damned , a critical and commercial failure that drew comparisons to the Goth-pop music videos streamed on MTV.  |  Rotten Tomatoes
