Cronos surprises with its sophisticated and spirited look at a tale straight from the crypt.

Los Angeles Times
Cronos, the crafty debut of a young Mexican filmmaker named Guillermo del Toro, emerged as a warning shot. His tale of vampirism and immortality is half horror, half historical fable-like all the best del Toro work to come.

The Ringer
From the prologue, it becomes clear that del Toro possesses an extraordinary vivid pictorial sense.

Hartford Courant
You have to admire the style, sincerity, and overall sense of craft even if you don't fancy the comic-book gore.

Chicago Reader
...A very stylish and sophisticated Mexican variation on some age-old themes....[Its] stately style elevates it from the ranks...
New York Times
Rating: 2.5/4 --
While the film's first half entices with its secrets, the second half falls into a predictable narrative that refuses to even suggest possibilities.

Chicago Tribune
A haunting little film that would augur greater successes such as Pan's and del Toro's 2001 masterpiece The Devil's Backbone.

Product Description:
Vampires and villains hold sway in this Cannes Festival Critics' Week Winner which tells the tale of the "Cronos Device," a 14th-century golden scarab that holds the key to eternal life. Nightmarish and surreal, this stylish film still manages to get across a healthy dose of humor as its characters battle for control of the insidious device. From the acclaimed director of THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE (2001) and MIMIC (1997) Guillermo del Toro.
