Interview with the Vampire gave us a heavy dose of vampires in the 1990s just when we needed it. The 1994 film, based on Anne Rice’s bestselling book of the same name, follows vampires Lestat and Louis, starting with Louis being transformed into a vampire by Lestat.
The movie starred two of the hottest heartthrobs at the time: Tom Cruise, 58, and Brad Pitt, 56. It’s been nearly 30 years since the movie’s release, and they’re practically aging like vampires. See how Tom, Brad, and the rest of the cast have changed over the years. The transformations have been incredible.
