It is hard to believe that 25 years before Guillermo del Toro won Best Picture and Best Director for The Shape of Water at the 2018 Oscars, he was forced to sell everything and take out a mortgage to fund his first feature film. In Cronos, an antiques dealer discovers a gold scarab-shaped device. It contains a terrifying secret, placed there by an alchemist six centuries earlier: the key to eternal life.

This film contains explicit scenes which may be offensive or disturbing to sensitive viewers.

Después de haber levantado las estatuillas del Oscar a la mejor película y a la mejor dirección por La forma del agua en 2018, cuesta creer que 25 años antes, Guillermo del Toro tuvo que vender e hipotecarlo todo para realizar su primer largometraje. Un anticuario encuentra un escarabajo dorado, en cuyo mecanismo un alquimista encerró hace seis siglos un secreto aterrador: la llave de la eternidad.
