I was so mad when they cast Tom Cruise. Tom Fucking Cruise? Top Gun? Fast Times at Ridgemont High? What the hell?

But he did an amazing job. Was gaunt, undead, perfect. I was wrong. And have been, again and again about him. He's a good actor. I don't want to like him. But he is good.

    OMG you are right it was not that one. Risky Business. But anyway, nothing that made me think he could play a vampire.

    Probably the worst film that Tom Cruise was in, was 1982's Losin It, about "four teenagers trying to lose their virginity." But you know what? He gave the role 100%.

    In 1981 he had a small but significant role in Taps, and starred in 1983's All the Right Moves, which showed he could take on serious roles. By the time he was cast in Interview with the Vampire, he'd been in Born on the Fourth of July and A Few Good Men, which proved he was a serious actor.
