Katherine Ann has a B.A. in English and Film Studies and has been reading, writing, and watching horror for over two decades.
The Big Picture Michael Rymer's Queen of the Damned is all about finding a second life — as a vampire, that is. At first, audiences and critics alike were uninterested in the 2002 follow-up to Interview with the Vampire. But the movie itself found its own second life due to a shocking real-life event that occurred after its release. The movie, based on Anne Rice's book, follows the vampire Lestat in modern times after the events of Interview with the Vampire.
According to the Guardian, Menzies had watched Queen of the Damned over 100 times by December 2002. He was obsessed with the vampire Akasha specifically. This obsession led him to brutally murder his best friend, Thomas McKendrick, who he had known since they were four years old. McKendrick paid his friend a visit on December 11, 2002. Menzies was already suffering from delusions about becoming a vampire like Akasha when McKendrick visited that day.
The upsetting nature of this incident doesn't end with the murder though. Menzies went even deeper into his vampire delusion after McKendrick was dead. In addition to the murder, Menzies claimed to have both drunk McKendrick's blood and eaten part of his head. After the murder, he took McKendrick's body to the woods nearby and buried him in a shallow grave.
