Biography

Domiziano Cristopharo, an independent film director from Rome, has been the first Italian director in years to try and revive the erotic/horror film genre.  Four years ago he obtained enormous audience and critical acclaim with HOUSE OF FLESH MANNEQUINS (starring international horror actor Giovanni Lombardo Radice).   HOUSE OF FLESH MANNEQUINS won six international awards and eight international film festival presentations. Domiziano Cristopharo has frequently been compared as a perfect mix between Fellini and Dario Argento: Cristopharo's aesthetic has a vintage quality: he is simultaneously extreme in style, shocking, and yet classic. ​ To those who define him "pornographic," he responds by quoting Picasso: "Art is never chaste and we should keep her away from pure ignorants. It it were chaste, it wouldn't be art at all."   In his career he worked also with/for: Carlo De Mejo (City of living Dead),Maria Rosaria Omaggio (Nightmare city),Ruggero Deodato (Cannibal Holocaust),Frank Laloggia (Lady in white),Venantino Venantini (Ladyhawke),Giovanni Lombardo Radice/John Morghen (Cannibal Ferox),Mariagrazia Cucinotta (El dia de la bestia),Stefano Cassetti (Roberto Succo),Romano Scavolini (Nightmare in a damaged Brain) ​​Director   2014 E.N.D.
