“Interview with the Vampire” The Season 2 Trailer is Here!
Looking good!
ABOUT INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE A luxury apartment covering an entire single floor of a high rise. Where the Vampire has granted the interview with the man he once judged to be unworthy. And where the journalist Daniel Molloy has hustled, for a second shot at the interview that got away from him 40 years earlier…
Based on Anne Rice’s iconic novel, Interview with The Vampire follows Louis’ epic story of love, blood and the perils of immortality, as told to the journalist Daniel Molloy. Chafing at the limitations of life as a black man in 1900’s New Orleans, Louis finds it impossible to resist Lestat’s offer of the ultimate escape: joining him as his vampire companion.
But Louis’s intoxicating new powers come with a violent price, and the introduction of Lestat’s newest fledgling, the child vampire Claudia, soon sets them on a decades-long path of revenge and atonement. A sensuous, contemporary reinvention of Anne Rice’s revolutionary gothic novel. Interview with the Vampire Season 2 Official Trailer | Premieres May 12 | AMC+
“Alien” & “Aliens” Alt Posters by Aurelio Lorenzo!
Aurelio Lorenzo is a huge fan of Alien and Aliens. He created two posters that work together as one or can stand alone. They work perfectly either way. Click on the photo above to see a Nostromo-sized version. Here’s part of what Lorenzo had to say about their creation:
ALIEN and ALIENS are still unsurpassed, not only in the franchise, but in the genre. Very different movies between them, but they have one thing in common, they both are GREAT!
I aimed to create a two-poster set, each able to stand alone or as part of a diptych. The focus was on making the xenomorphs dominant, enveloping the layout with a sense of claustrophobia. I then incorporated key elements from the movies, trying to capture their essence in an attractive composition.
I say, “Mission accomplished!” If you’d like to see more of Aurelio Lorenzo’s art, you can here.
“Psycho” Alt Poster by Paul Mann!
Psycho is a classic Alfred Hitchcock movie. Paul Mann has created a poster worthy of it. Of course Mann’s art is always exemplary. You can see more of it here.
