A deep, dark, stylistic adaptation of the book by Anne Rice from her hugely popular series of vampire novels, THE QUEEN OF THE DAMNED is like a Nine Inch Nails rock video. Undernourished goth club kids are the focus of the film and they all look great with piercings, net t-shirts, tattoos, dyed hair, and dour facial expressions. The film follows the celebrity rock star Vampire Lestat (Stuart Townsend), who has emerged from 200 years of solitude to show his face--and his vampire powers--to the world. He has assembled a goth band, makes regular media appearances, and has enchanted the world with his otherworldly mystique. In addition, he has planned one of the most controversial publicity stunts of all eternity: he is holding a one-night rock concert in California's Death Valley, inviting all vampires young and old (along with his extensive fan-base of mortals) to join him. As a side bar to this activity, the mortal Jesse, a young woman who works for the Talamasca society studying paranormal occurrences, has found a secret portal to the vampire world: a London pub where vamps hang out. There she meets Lestat and is instantly smitten with him, insisting on travelling to Death Valley to see his concert. Also en route to the show is the sleek and sexy Egyptian mother of all vampires Queen Akasha (Aaliyah), who has recently arisen from a 2,000-year nap in order to unleash hell on earth. From a distance, a wise band of vampires watch telepathically as Akasha, Lestat, and Jesse converge in Death Valley. But what nobody knows is that the headstrong Lestat, who is the most impulsive and irresponsible of immortal beings but practically a god in the eyes of mortals, is the only one who can defeat Akasha and save the world.

Queen of the Damned Reviews:

"...Directed with Goth pizazz and brains by Michael Rymer....The widescreen production shows affection for the genre..." -- David Hunter, Hollywood Reporter

"...[Aaliyah is] genuinely appealing as the Vamp queen....The action receives an excitement injection every time she appears..." -- Ceri Thomas, Total Film

3 stars Know your movie before you make it!
This movie was a HUGE let down, especially when compared to the books it was based on (The Vampire Lestat & Queen Of The Damned). The movie would have been so much better IF the makers of this film followed the books, in which there is a HUGE cult following. The second way they could have made it better is to follow from Interview With The Vampire (the movie), in case they didn't see it, Lestat had BLONDE hair!!! (Not Black) And Armand had LONG BLACK hair!!! (Not Blonde). Perhaps it was a simple mistake where the two actors simply grabed the wrong wigs! Overall a VERY dissapointing effort. SHAME ON YOU!

5 stars For what it is........
If your one who likes to keep with the book, this movie will piss u off.(Armand is blond!and Pandora is killed off!) So yes, the story line is butchered, but that 's what it takes to slam two huge books into a 2 hour movie. And considering all the RE-editing that had to be done after Alliyah's death,im supprised its not worse. But all in all it is good for what it is. Alliyah's portrayal of Akasha is flawless to say the least.(the bar scene rawked my socks) And Townsed nails Lestat in this phase of his "dark gift" and 2 killers soundtracks(the score is awesome) also help out alot. but the complete lack of the Egyptian lore and the Twins does grate my nerves a bit. But like i siad its good...for what it is!
