Magnus

Ever since Christopher Lee ("Dracula (1958)," "The Lord of the Rings") portrayed Dracula as a suave seducer in Hammer's horror films, people have misinterpreted the story as being about sexual repression. As penance, Lee will play Magus as he should have played Dracula, as disgusting, old, and despicable. He did this well in LOTR, so he should be able to carry the brief but memorable role of the vampire who forces himself upon Lestat.
