Line 48:
* [[Offscreen Teleportation]]: Used by Louis to put the fear of God into Malloy. He explains it as superspeed.
* [[Overshadowed by Awesome]]: Louis to Lestat. Even the novels point out that Louis retains more humanity than any other vampire, and that he actually ''cares'', which one could argue that makes his introverted, introspective tale much more compelling than Lestat... who [[Crazy Awesome|became a rock star]].
* [[Pragmatic Adaptation]]: A lot of Anne Rice's more... questionable bits of [[Signature Style]] got left out or softened considerably.

[[Older Than They Look]] may make for an interesting excuse on paper or in anime,; in live action, it can be disturbing.
* [[Primal Stance]]: Before attacking they turn beastly. You rarely see a vampire stroll across the ceiling, hands in his pockets and whistling; they're almost always growling, breathing heavily, and salivating.
