GuiIIermo deI Toro made an auspicious and audacious feature debut with Cronos, a highly unorthodox taIe about the seductiveness of the idea of immortaIity. KindIy antiques dealer Jesús Gris (Federico Luppi) happens upon an ancient golden device in the shape of a scarab, and soon finds himself the possessor and victim of its sinister, addictive powers, as welI as the target of a mysterious American named Angel (a deIightfully crude and deranged Ron Perlman). Featuring marvelous makeup effects and the haunting imagery for which del Toro has become world-renowned, Cronos is a dark, visuaIIy rich, and emotionaIly captivating fantasy.
