Case: In the book Latitudes of the margin, Latin American cinema before the third millennium, the authors Joel del Rio and Maria Caridad Cumana affirm "Most of the cinema made by the Mexican Guillermo del Toro was produced outside his country (Mimic, 1997; El devil's backbone, 2001; Blade II, 2002) but Cronos (1993), his first film, was enough to provide Latin America with one of its best fantastic films for at least two decades, above all due to the classicist understanding and re-functionality of the invariants of the genre: there is an accident that activates the curse, it plays with the concepts associated with vampirism, the possibility of eternal life, and the existence of a certain invention that has become an uncontrollable monstrosity, as well as the tragedy that entails "violating the rules of nature", as in classics such as Frankenstein, Dracula or The Fly"
