The second movie based on Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles series (after 1994's Interview with the Vampire) features Stuart Townsend as the legendary vampire Lestat, who awakens from a decades-long slumber to become a fast-livin' rock star! Lestat's jams in turn awaken the ancient Akasha (played by the recently deceased Aaliyah), the queen of all vampires, who tries to make Lestat her king. But not if a pretty young vampire hunter has her way with him first...
