THIS BROKE ME *Interview With The Vampire* Season 1 Episode 5 REACTION! 

Very unexpected how hard this got to me lol We are on Season 2 on Patreon.com/Madvision ⭐️ (Episodes included)

There's nothing wrong with being empathetic and having a forgiving heart. Just don't allow ppl to walk all over you. ❤

That fight was the most gut wrenching moment on this whole show, it broke me too.

This is the kind of show where you have to watch an episode more than once....even this one, which was so difficult to watch.

This is the most devastating and frightening episode, it escalates with each vampire that appears, demonstrating their predatory nature until it culminates in the one that weighs the most, it's heavy but brilliant, at least for me! lol

Truly the most gut wrenching and frightening moments of TV. I definitely understand your reaction. I was so distraught watching Lestat's violent abuse of Louis and Claudia. and I agree, I can't imagine wanting Louis to force himself to be with his abuser.

this episode still hurts to watch even after the 1000th time. i have such a physical reaction every time.

This show is emotional damage but in a good way!

The song at the end is by Charles Manson.

This fight was a lot. Awesome reaction and commentary.

Cannot relate at all to 'zoning out' when Lestat talks - that man's voice is fire! ❤‍🔥😍

Fwiw I don't think it's possible to watch this and not be affected by it. It's viscerally upsetting. It's extremely hard to watch. Can't wait to see what you think of the rest of this season!

I relate so much to what you said about almost hating how you can empathize and understand perspectives of people who cause a lot of harm bc you know they don't really mean it. it's a major running thread in my life, too, sadly, lol. I call it my empathy disorder bc it can at times be very unhealthy for me and sometimes i worry it's because it's easier for me to advocate for others than to advocate for myself. After episode 5, I was depressed for a week until the next episode 😭 This show is really good at bringing to light the darkest feelings we all face in secret. The intimate point of view we get through Louis' painfully discussing his relationship with the man he loved first and most in the world but who also caused him the most pain, and the heartwrenching point of view of Claudia's diaries-- the grief Louis feels about his mistakes as a father and then a brother figure to Claudia... all so human, but easily depicted in fiction by "monsters" because we often feel wrong and deformed for having this darkness inside us-- when really it's what connects us all. Amazing reaction as usual. 💜

I really feel you, I sobbed the first time I watched the episode 😭😭

We were all messed up after this episode aired! The writing and acting in this show is so intense it moves everybody.

I hope you got somebody lose by to give you a hug. Many of us needed one after this, whether folks said it or not.

One of my favorite episodes, I'm glad you reacting!

I feel like Lestat at that point hated Claudia so much to a point he would rather hurt Luis because that's the only way he could hurt Claudia to the maximum,that ep was and still is the most difficult to watch without being emotional 😢😢😢

The fight scene was sad because you could tell Louis was stuck in the middle and didn’t want to choose between his husband and daughter. Also, do you know why Lestat bit him? The last time he bit him was in episode 1, where they were intimate, and they levitated. But I wasn't sure if it was meant to weaken him, so he has no choice but to stay and heal, or do you think he wanted force a “physical” connection? I know they haven't been intimate in 5 years, and Lestat said " I choose you".

I'm still not sure about how I feel about the show making Lestat an actual physical abuser in this ep. He never did that to Louis in the books But "dropping from the sky" part feels oddly familiar to another moment in later books that happened with other characters which makes me wonder just how unreliable Louis's story actually is

Hugs~ This episode is a hard watch for sure.

I really felt for you when you were getting emotional, I just wanted to come through the screen and give you a hug 🤗. Least was wrong to allow him emotions to run that wild, but was he completely wrong? After having watched it a few times now, I say no he wasn't. Even in Louis interview with Daniel he says he took an unsavory delight in provoking Least. So of course, he should not have put his hands on Louis and that way, or even Claudia. It would have been better for Least to convenience Louis to take her to a hospital, by lying to him and telling him that she's too young and the she couldn't survive the change. But you can understand Least frustration with Louis and feeling neglected and rejected by Louis. His feelings of being just utterly alone and shattered because Louis had been giving him the cold shoulder for years at that point, nearly 10 years, Louis had been behaving that way towards Least. He stayed in that house when really Lestat should have left Louis, or put Louis out instead he just allow Louis to abuse him emotionally, and finally, Lestat abused Louie physically, it's not justified, but it is understandable, everyone has a breaking point. And Claudia coming back and Louis even considering leaving him was a knife in Leas's heart, he says " A thousand nights of sulking, and the first sight of her, you were going to just up and leave me"? I feel bad for Least 😢

Aavesham part 2??

React Kalki trailer 👍

I understand why grace made her decision Louis should had listened to lestat and stayed away from his family

This is from Louis’ perspective…
