Behind him, reflected in the glass of the door, are the crew and equipment
Line of Events
A mysterious device meant to give its owner eternal life resurfaces after 400 years, leaving a trail of devastation in its wake. In an interview included in the Criterion edition of this film, Ron Perlman talks about how Angel was supposed to be fluent in Spanish. Ron Perlman attempted to do this, but Guillermo del Toro found his reading skills to be completely useless, so the character was changed to an expatriate American who hates being in Mexico so much that he deliberately speaks the little Spanish he knows poorly. When Jesús looks for Aurora after she takes the Cronos, he stops as he passes through two doors. [discusses why Deiter wants the Cronos] Jesus Gris: He thinks it will help him live longer. Angel de la Guardia: [laughs] This wanker does nothing but shit and piss all day and he wants to live longer?
As seen in Masters of Horror (2002)
Some explicit nude scenes were added in the U.S. video release. While the primary American theatrical version will include a prologue and portions of dialogue in English, a secondary market version will be entirely in Spanish. The Beautiful Miller’s Daughter, Franz Schubert, Arreglov: Charlotte Georg (as Lee Ashley), BMI, Publisher: Software Music BMI, Ortesia de Capitol Productions, Music – Ole Georg. This is apparently Guillermo del Toro’s first feature film and while it is a little rough, it is also very creative and different. However, because it is so emotional, bloody and brutal, it is NOT for everyone.
Cronos begins with a strange prologue
It seems as if an alchemist invented a strange device centuries ago – and this device could grant eternal life. The film now shifts to the present day. An old man and his granddaughter have found a strange metal device – the same one that this alchemist had invented. However, they have no idea what the purpose is or how to make it work. By chance, the old man is able to activate it – and it pierces him – causing a lot of pain and blood. Strangely, though, he soon starts to feel better and look younger – and feels a strong need to try the device again.
I won’t give any more away – you have to see it
Meanwhile, a rich and evil old sick guy has somehow found out about the device the old man discovered – and he has sent his sociopathic nephew (Ron Perlman) to get the device. There is A LOT more to the story – and it gets really weird, violent and bloody. However, I have seen it described as a “vampire movie” and that really is a HUGE oversimplification. There is a lot more to it – and you just have to see it to understand. really. The film is incredibly creative and cool, but as I said, it’s not for everyone.
and the Hellboy films!
It’s not exactly a horror film in the traditional sense, and it’s excellent. By the way, what’s up with Ron Perlman? He’s carved out an interesting niche for himself by appearing in the strangest international films. I’m NOT complaining – I’m just amazed by his film projects, as they are so incredibly varied. Here he is in a Mexican film, but he’s also done French films (“City of Lost Children”), films about the Russo-German conflict in WWII (“Enemy at the Gates”)… Now that’s a man of many talents!
