Eclipse
It all begins… with a choice.
As Bella (Kristen Stewart) tries to choose between the vampire and the werewolf (Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner), Seattle is plagued by a series of killings. The 30 Days of Night (2007) director was picked for the third chapter of the Twilight saga, which garnered a few positive reviews… but all I can see is a good filmmaker try to fit into a formula set two movies ago. David Slade plays a minor part; what matters is the cast, the visual effects and the moody atmosphere. If only the drama between the three leads would rise above its annoying high school level.
2010-U.S. 124 min. Color. Widescreen. Directed by David Slade. Novel: Stephenie Meyer. Cast: Kristen Stewart (Bella Swan), Robert Pattinson (Edward Cullen), Taylor Lautner (Jacob Black), Xavier Samuel, Bryce Dallas Howard, Dakota Fanning… Anna Kendrick.
Trivia: Followed by Breaking Dawn Part 1 (2011).
Razzie: Worst Supporting Actor (Jackson Rathbone).

Xavier Samuel made this my best ever Twilight experience. Period! His deathly stares can top both Rob Pat & Tay Laut any day of the week. His film Road Kill will also prove this.

I’m looking forward to seeing another Xavier film as well. I saw the trailer for Road Kill around the time Eclipse came out. Since then I’ve been looking everyday on Amazon for a copy of Road Kill on DVD. It’s coming out in 4 days at last.
