Finally @ BPL...Guillermo del Toro's breakout film about two old men (rich tycoon and antique shop owner) searching for immortality; one has the Cronos device, the other has the operating manual. So the battle began... Great opening sequence with close-up of the innards of the mechanism: Gothic, macabre and rather beautiful. A creative twist on the vampire genre. (see also The Hunger with Bowie/Deneuve/Sarandon, the 'chic-est' of all vampire films).
