"This was my first VS purchase. I was drawn in by the promise of lo-fi Argentoisms and Salerno’s films hit just right. This is a great deal, jam packed with features and shorts. I’m now collecting all of Bleeding Skull’s releases."
"Well, I was sad to learn that director Fabio Salerno at some point had taken his own life. From seeing the films in this collection, he would seem to be a fan of Italian horror who managed to outgrow the extremely low budgets of his film and let his passion shine through. Sure, some of the earliest shorts are nothing more than home video stuff meant as excercises but the 2 longer films are a treasure trove of imagination and gory delights. Bleeding Skull are to be commended for bringing this to our attention as I had never before heard of this man."
"Cool and experiment and fun to watch! Looking forward to more like this."
"Getting tired of the same old Giallo and zombie flicks but love Italian horror? Check this out. Amazing collection!"
"Incredible collection. Loaded with enough material to keep you watching for days. A unique director that should have had a larger audience"
"A charming trove of hidden gems from Fabio Salerno. Favorite short film was The Other Dimension. Perfect Argento style lighting with an eerie and surreal atmosphere."
"A great collection of short films. Hours of fun."
"A look into the life and work of Dario Argento’s biggest fan. I chose to watch this set in reverse order. Short films before the features to see Salerno’s growth as a filmmaker. It’s awesome examining that development over the dozen or so shorts here. The best stuff is those handful of shorts between ‘85 and ‘87 where the man did nothing but cook."
"Great collection of Films of Fabio Salerno"
