Guillermo del Toro’s Cannes prize-winning directorial debut offers a unique take on the classic vampire story.
When antiques dealer Jesús Gris discovers an ancient artefact in the form of a golden mechanical scarab, he is unaware of the power it holds.
While 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 scarab for himself, a dying millionaire and his brutish nephew are soon in hot pursuit.
