I really enjoyed Cronos. It is a psuedo vampire film, but it’s not a horror film at all. It’s really about the relationship between a young girl and her grandfather. The main reason I liked it was because it was different. The makeup effects weren’t the best, but that was really my only small complaint. They weren’t horrible by any means.

As far as Guillermo Del Toro goes… I do prefer The Devil’s Backbone. However, I love that one so much that it wouldn’t really be fair for me to compare anything to it. My brother though, did like Cronos better.

On a side note, I really don’t know what the cover has to do with the movie. It shows the Cronos Device on a young woman, yet there were no young women in the film aside from the child?
