· 4 pulledAfter two phenomenal seasons of Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire, I was expecting some sort of whiplash as we went from Louis (Jacob Anderson) narrating to Lestat (Sam Reid).
There was whiplash… in the most fantastic way possible.
It just feels like the road to perdition, and I am unable to turn around or look any other way.
