Editorial Reviews
"...A very stylish and sophisticated Mexican variation on some age-old themes....[Its] stately style elevates it from the ranks..."
New York Times - p.C16 - Janet Maslin (03/24/1994)

"...Pleasant and spooky....Luppi gives a poignant and amusing performance....Del Toro not only has fun mixing genres, he knows how to convey his enjoyment and make the result distinctly his own..."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (04/22/1994)

4 stars out of 5 -- "It's shadowy and tender, but shot through with biting wit."
Uncut - Damien Love (03/01/2006)

"Guillermo del Toro struck a fresh slant on the vampire genre with this stately blend of magic realism, melodrama and Cronenbergian body horror."
