The First Trailer for Anne Rice's Interview With The VampireAnne Rice's 1976 novel Interview with the Vampire is going to be a TV series! The erotic horror story has been somewhat modernized, moving from 1791 to 1910. The series stars Sam Reid and Jacob Anderson as Lestat de Lioncourt and Louis de Pointe du Lac. The series has been in the works since 2016, when Anne Rice regained the rights to the story from Universal Pictures. She developed the series in collaboration with her son Christopher Rice. AMC acquired the rights in 2020, and named Rolin Jones as showrunner. If the series is successful, there will be years of material to follow from the 13 books in Rice's series known as The Vampire Chronicles. Anne Rice's Interview With The Vampire will premiere October 2 on AMC. -via Metafilter#vampire #InterviewwiththeVampire #TV #AnneRice

Morbius Re-Released in Theater and Flopped AgainIn early 2022, Morbius debuted to an anemic reaction, grossing just $74 million domestically on a $75 million budget. Thankfully, the international cume saved it from being a total bomb. Since then, the movie has grown a certain infamy on the internet, garnering a thousand memes and endless chatters. Motivated by that, Sony decided to re-release the Jared Leto-starring flick this weekend only to find that audiences remained cold on the vampire comic book movie.The re-release’s flop once again highlights how the internet popularity of a movie often doesn’t translate to actual turnout. We see this time and time again with more successful films: Snakes on a Plane, The Passion of the Christ, even the fiercely demanded Snyder Cut’s Justice League. With Morbius - scoring a tepid C+ Cinemascore and 17% on Rotten Tomatoes - the (bloody) writing was on the wall. Image: It's Morbin Time by rocketman#morbius #vampire #movie #meme
