Ron Perlman attempted this, but Guillermo del Toro found his reading completely unusable
Scenario
A mysterious device designed to provide its owner with eternal life resurfaces after four hundred years, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. In an interview included in the Criterion edition of this film, Ron Perlman talks about how Angel was supposed to speak fluent Spanish. So, the character was changed to an expatriate American who hates being in Mexico so much, that what little Spanish he does speak he deliberately speaks poorly.

This is ostensibly Guillermo del Toro's first full-length film, and while it's a bit rough around the edges, it's also very creative and different. However, because it is so visceral, bloody, and violent, it is NOT a film for everyone.
"Chronos" opens with a strange prologue
It seems that centuries ago an alchemist devised a strange device that could grant eternal life. The film now shifts to the present. An old man and his granddaughter have found a strange metal device, the same one created by this alchemist. However, they have no idea what its purpose is and how to make it work. By accident, the old man is able to activate it and it goes through him, causing him a lot of pain and blood. However, strangely enough, he soon starts to feel better and look younger, and he feels a strong urge to try the device again.
I won’t say any more, you’ll have to see it
Meanwhile, a sick, rich, and unpleasant old man somehow finds out about the device the old man discovered and sends his sociopathic nephew (Ron Perlman) to get it. There's a LOT more to the story than this, and it gets really weird, violent, and bloody. However, I saw it described as a “vampire” movie and this really is a HUGE oversimplification. There is a lot more to it than this, and you just have to see it to understand it. really. The movie is incredibly creative and cool, but like I said, it’s not for everyone.
and the Hellboy films!
It’s not exactly a horror movie in the traditional sense and it’s excellent. By the way, what's up with Ron Perlman? He's carved out an interesting niche for himself by appearing in the strangest variety of international films. Now, I'm NOT complaining, I'm just marveling at his film projects because they're incredibly varied. Here, he's in a Mexican film, but he's also done French films ("City of Lost Children"), films about the Russian-German conflict in World War II ("Enemy at the Gates")... Talk about a man of multiple talents!
