Review of Queen of the Damned (2002) by Asif K — 23 Jul 2010
Lestat, the metal years. This is a hideous movie which fails to capture any of the spirit or the elements of the book which it was adapted from.
The direction in this film is almost non existant and the cast for the most part are uniformly awful (I admit that the redhead was pretty hot though). Stuart Townsend has zero presence as Lestat and the accent that he employs is extremely crass. The rest of the cast fare little better. Most of this comes down to the awful work that was done adapting the source material. The characters in the book are fully formed and developed, none of this comes through in the film.
Simply awful.
