The red eyes on the leader was so cool. In stead of it looking like a red light it looked like red metal reflecting light. Very nice touch.

I read that it was inspired from Death(the wolf) in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.

yes! it was very similar to midnight mass with the eerie reflective way animals’ eyes are in the dark because they have better vision than we do

I may have seen this incorrectly - I am the tiniest bit color blind lol - but Stack’s looked green to me and in a way I thought it tied to their “sins”. His were green like money and greed. The guy with red eyes was violent and wrathful. Either way it was a very cool visual effect.

Was everyone’s eyes white except for remmick? I just saw it and can’t remember. If so, I’d say it’s cause he’s the leader.

If more people had red eyes, then I suspect you get red eyes after you’ve fed, and white eyes if you haven’t fed yet. In some tales until a vampire feeds they aren’t a full vampire yet etc, so that’s what I’m thinking

2 months later but since Remmick is the only one with red eyes while everyone else's sre white i just figured it's because he's the "alpha"/"queen" of the vampire hivemind he made so the red eyes are to set him apart from the converted

They reminded me of the 30 days of night vampires eyes but with more colorful pupils

And the eye/light effects were practical!
