Has to be Anne Rice's Interview With The Vampire.
I think Neil Jordan did a terrific job, and Cruise, Pitt and Kirsten Dunst are all exceptionally good.

There'll be few who will diagree with me when I say Shirley Jackson's novel 'The Legend of Hill House' - which was the blueprint for the original B/W version of The Haunting, directed by Robert Wise (West Side Story, Star Trek : The Motion Picture)

That's easy: "Rosemary's Baby" by Ira Levin. The movie follows the novel so well, the actors might as well have been handed a paperback copy of Levin's book in lieu of a script.
