Cronos 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray brings Guillermo del Toro’s remarkable feature debut to stunning new life. This dark fantasy follows kindly antiques dealer Jesús Gris (Federico Luppi), who discovers an ancient scarab-shaped device that grants supernatural vitality—at a terrible cost. As the Cronos mechanism’s addictive power begins to consume him, Gris becomes hunted by a ruthless American named Angel (Ron Perlman), whose obsession with the device threatens everyone around it. Blending gothic atmosphere, emotional tenderness, and macabre imagination, Cronos showcases del Toro’s signature visual world-building right from the beginning of his career.
