Summary

On this episode, Aaron and Derek tackle Guillermo del Toro's first feature film and independent horror movie "Cronos" from 1992. They talk about Ron Perlman's casting in a Spanish language horror movie, del Toro's intention for this being his first feature, and how this provides the blueprint for del Toro's filmography. They also get into the nature of vampirism in the movie, how del Toro blends popular ideas into originality, and many other aspects of "Cronos." Derek has the toy. But Aaron is keeping the instructions, and he's open all night.Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/WatchIfYouDareWe are on PodBean, Apple Podcasts, Podchaser, Goodpods, Amazon Music, Spotify, and CastBox.

But yeah, you know, we're living in the hotel, two toddlers, two cats, a single room. Hell yeah. At least we have a kitchen. The adjustment to sleep, especially at a higher elevation, is a little rough. Yeah, that's kind of suck.
