From the prologue, it becomes clear that del Toro possesses an extraordinary vivid pictorial sense.

Hartford Courant
Rating: 4/5 --
A compelling, complex and wonderfully atmospheric film from Mexican director Guillermo del Toro that is as much about religion and the nature of cinema as it is a horror story.

Rating: 3/4 --
Guillermo del Toro's feature debut is an arch twist on the vampire tale.

Philadelphia Inquirer
[T]his is more gothic romance than horror, as del Toro's commitment to the wondrously grotesque transforms stock elements into something richer and more profound. -- Grade: A-
A.V. Club
A haunting little film that would augur greater successes such as Pan's and del Toro's 2001 masterpiece The Devil's Backbone.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
While the film's first half entices with its secrets, the second half falls into a predictable narrative that refuses to even suggest possibilities.

Product Description:
Vampires and villains hold sway in this Cannes Festival Critics' Week Winner which tells the tale of the "Cronos Device," a 14th-century golden scarab that holds the key to eternal life. Nightmarish and surreal, this stylish film still manages to get across a healthy dose of humor as its characters battle for control of the insidious device. From the acclaimed director of THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE (2001) and MIMIC (1997) Guillermo del Toro.
