MOVIE REVIEW

Warner Brothers had slated Queen of the Damned for direct-to-video hell, but then Aaliyah died and this movie based on the third book of the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice was given a theatrical release. I would like to say that the motives behind this were purely honorable, such that they were allowing Aaliyah's last film to reach theaters for her sake, but I doubt the move was anything but business-oriented. In fact, if Warner Brothers had decided to keep Aaliyah's best interests in mind, they would not have released Queen of the Damned at all, because it really sucks - forgive the pun.
