Review
"By the time the 1970s had rolled around, British production studio Hammer Films... seemed to represent that last bastion of clear demarcation in horror films as to what represented good and what represented evil. In the late '60s and early '70s, moral ambiguity was the trampoline most horror films bounced their terror off of, and Hammer's unique brand of Neanderthal ethics were looking more and more like relics... At any rate, and putting reactionary readings of horror fads aside, writer-director Brian Clemens's Kronos (though Clemens wrote hundreds of scripts, this was his sole helming gig) is still a fascinating blend of swashbuckling Renaissance Fair heroics and an un-traditional peek at the Vampire myth" - Eric Henderson, Slant Magazine
