The premise

Vampire Lestat awakens from his slumber and becomes a rock star. But chaos strikes when his music awakens Akasha, the vampire queen, who may not rest until she makes Lestat her new king.

Horror Vault's take

Centuries-old vampire Lestat breaks every rule of the undead by stepping into the spotlight as a rock star, broadcasting the existence of his kind to an unsuspecting world. His provocative music reaches far deeper into the darkness than he bargained for, stirring something ancient and terrifyingly powerful. As devoted fans and dangerous enemies alike are drawn to him, a force far older and more ruthless than Lestat begins to stir. What rises from the shadows could reshape the entire vampire world — with Lestat at its volatile center.
