On October 2nd, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse director David Slade will be heading to Canada for the Vancouver International Film Festival's Vancouver Film and Television Forum to discuss how he made Eclipse will new filmmakers, according to The Province.
In speaking with the publication about the forthcoming appearance, Slade remarked about Twilight fans who stood outside of the set in the hopes that they'd get to see some of the cast coming and going. "I've got a lot of respect for those kids -- God that's tenacity. I have a lot of time for the subcultures that bring kids together, regardless of subject matter. Often it's just a good solid source for people to bond," he said.
He also discussed some of his personal goals in making the film, saying "I wanted Rob [Pattinson] to be scary. I wanted him to have a visceral quality, where a flash of his eyes kind of made it look like he could kill."
