Movies recommended or seen lately... les films a voir #12: Chronos

Genre: Horror/Horreur
Anee/Year: 1993
Format: DVD

Cronos is one of the earlier movies from a director which is now shooting for the top: Guillermo Del Toro. You dont know Guillermo (not to confuse with the actor Benicio from the Che) ...come on.. he is the hottest thing out of Mexico in hte last 15 years with great successes such as Hellboy (1 and 2) as well as the commanded "Pan's Labyrinth". He is also preparing for us the Hobbit movies to come later in 2012 and 13 as pre-quels to the Lord of the Rings.

Cronos is a well built movie about a type of vampire with another twist. The acting is first rate by lead Frederico Luppi. Secondary role to Ron Perlman who also played Hellboy.

I was postively surprised at this movie's quality, but you gotta like the horror genre. Guillermo is quoted as saying in the special features: "Horror is one of the last risky genre" and this is probably why he has invested himself into it do deeply. Well it pays off in his case. Well done Guillermo.

Le film Cronos est excellent mais attendez vous a un film moitie anglais et moitie Espagnol. Ceci n'a pas diminue mon interet et le film est superbe. On gagne tous a connaitre Guillermo Del Toro si vous n'avez pas deja vu ses succes plus recent tell Hellboy ou Le Labyrinthe de Pan. Son style sombre s'adapte bien aux choix de film qu'il fait. C'est une histoire de vampire vraiment differente base sur une mecanique diabolique qui utilise un insecte a son centre. cool. Dur a trouver ce film mais ca vaut le cout. F Luppi acteur pricipal y mene un superbe travail. Bravo.
