Cronos UHD Limited Edition
Director Guillermo Del Toro
Oscarwinner Guillermo del Toros Pans Labyrinth, The Shape of Water directorial debut offers a unique take on the classic vampire story and went on to win the Critics Week award at the Cannes Film Festival in 1993.
When antiques dealer Jesús Gris Federico Luppi discovers an ancient artifact in the form of a golden mechanical scarab, he is unaware of the power it holds. Whilst the parasite inside the device grants eternal life to its new host, it also causes an extreme aversion to daylight and an unquenchable thirst for human blood. Desperate to claim the device for himself, a dying millionaire played by Claudio Brook and his brutish nephew Ron Perlman, Hellboy are in hot pursuit.
Newly restored in 4K, the BFI is delighted to be bringing Cronos back to UK audiences, in an extras packed limited edition 4K UHD.
