| When Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) reluctantly
moved to the perpetually overcast town of Forks, WA, and set out to carve
a niche for herself, she assumed it would be one similar to the low-profile
social position she held back in Phoenix. First on the list of surprises
was the unfamiliar attention from the male population of her new high school;
second, the attention from one male in particular: Edward Cullen, Vampire
(Robert Pattinson). Before long, the unlikely soul mates find themselves
in a passionate relationship with a variety of significant setbacks, including
Edward's special-needs diet (he doesn't eat humans, but Bella's scent inspires
a nearly impossible to harness bloodlust) and the human girl's mortality.
Though things proceed relatively smoothly at first (Edward even introduces
Bella to his adoptive vampire family), a visiting vampire clan consisting
of James (Cam Gigandet), Victoria (Rachelle Lefevre), and Laurent (Edi
Gathegi) catches Bella's unique scent and threatens the young couple's
budding, if dangerous, happiness. James, known for his powerful tracking
ability, becomes obsessed with making Bella his next victim. Fearing
for Bella's safety and that of her loved ones, the Cullens must combine
their collective talents in order to stop the highly predatory James before
his goal is accomplished. |
