An adaptation of Anne Rice's best-selling novel (and third

adventure follows the legendary vampire Lestat (Stuart
Townsend - orginally played by Tom Cruise in the 1994
thriller INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE), who reinvents himself
as a rock star in the contemporary American music scene.
His music wakes Akasha (Aaliyah), the queen of all
vampires, whose malevolent power is so great that all the
immortal vampires must stand against her if they hope to
survive. As Lestat's music inspires Akasha to make him her
king, Jesse (Marguerite Moreau), a young woman with a
fascination for the dark side, falls in love with Lestat.
