Cronos (1993)

There is an old saying in B-Moviestan that goes something like this: "The only antidote for a bad vampire movie is a very good vampire movie.". So, never one to doubt the wisdom of the elders, I just watched Guillermo del Toros debut film, which is a very good vampire movie, although so damn sad in the treatment of its themes, dying, love and growing old (instead of the usual vampiric stuff like sex, violent sex and dangerous sex), that my mood hasn't really improved.

I should probably start to watch stupid Hollywood comedies. If these things just weren't so damn depressing.

Another darling of the day:
"Christ walked on water. Just like a mosquito." (Yes, del Toro really likes his bugs)
