Critics Consensus

With a playful tone and an expansive sweep that allows Anne Rice's gothic opus to mull like a chalice of blood, Interview with the Vampire puts a stake through concerns that this story couldn't be successfully resurrected.

It’s 100 percent Cirque du Soleil realness.

3/5

This new Interview is far more faithful to Rice than was the movie – and nowhere near as much fun.

3/5

Vampires are always a bit camp and sensual, penetrating fangs an obvious metaphor, but sex runs through this series like the blood through a swooning maiden’s veins.

3/4

A handsomely shot and well-cast blend of horror, humor and romance in which bodices and throats are ripped in equal measure.

4.5/5

Exquisitely produced and featuring a trio of great performances by Jacob Anderson, Sam Reid, and Bailey Bass, the series deftly explores sex, violence, race, class, and queerness in nuanced and entertaining ways.

Anderson is deep and mesmeric, Zaman controlled, and understated, Reid not at all understated, Bass an utter whirlwind, and Bogosian sharp and sarcastic. The writing, set design, wardrobe, make-up, and locations etc., are extraordinary. It altered me emotionally.

This show has been my hyper fixation ever since I started watching it. I wished I watched this show earlier! The writing is beautiful and breathtaking. The aesthetics of the show is mind blowing. I love how easily you can care about all the characters and events. I have not felt this way about a show in a very long time and I am so passionate about my love towards this show. The actors acted beautifully and you can tell how much they love this show and their characters. It is so refreshing and satisfying as an audience member to see these actors' talents displayed onscreen. Can't wait for season 3!!

This show is hands down one of the best TV series I’ve ever seen! Jacob Anderson and Sam Reid’s performances are outstanding! The story line keeps you engaged throughout with the twists and turns and is fantastically made and produced. Looking forward hopefully to more and more seasons! This is not a three seasons show, this is an eight to nine seasons show!
