Kirsty, Stella, Ian and Dan return to their survey of Hollywood's procession of Gothic horrors from the 1990s with the one non-Columbia/TriStar/Zoetrope film on the list - but a film we couldn't possibly leave out - Neil Jordan's sumptuous adaptation of Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire. But how does it look to modern eyes? And is the apparently ageless Tom Cruise actually a vampire in real life? And which names will Ian drop this week?
