Review of Cronos (1993) by Colin H — 23 Apr 2009
Horror/chiller from Gullimero Del Toro about an antiques dealer who finds an ancient, beatle shaped device made by an alchemist hundreds of years ago that can grant eternal life to the person it sinks it's "claws" into.
But along with eternal life comes a thirst for human blood and an aversion to sunlight. Problem is, the dealer has the device but it's instruction manual lies in the hands of a wealthy but dying businessman who wants the device for his own use.
Although not really gory or particularly scary,this is a well written film, a great story and an original take on the vampire myth.
