When the citizenry of small town Bon Temps in HBO’s vampire series “True Blood” are up to no good, their eyes turn an opaque black.
In the movie “New Moon,” the second installment in Stephenie Meyer’s popular vampire “Twilight” saga, director Chris Weitz has given the aristocratic vampire clan called the Volturi custom-crafted blood-red eyes.
“They’re all hand-painted, specially manufactured contacts,” Weitz tells people.com. “They’re opaque red, almost like preying mantis eyes. You can’t really see into them.”
“New Moon,” due out Nov. 20, also features Dakota Fanning as Jane, an angelic-looking Volturi vampire who inflicts physical torture on her victims.
