C.M. Lazer delivers a well-received Italian horror inspired short with Phantoms of the Fog! This 11-minute affair consists of a heaping dose of, you guessed it, Italian horror, with a dash of those classic Vietnam War action flicks churned out around the world during the mid to late 80s. Starring Filmiracle Productions regulars Karen Lynn and Terry Reilly, newcomer Ryan Fargo plays the part of an American soldier wandering around in the jungle for reasons unknown. This time around, Chris has recruited Luca Coscarella (known for his amazing cover tracks, most notably his renditions from Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror) to deliver a hypnotic musical score.

"... could be described as a Lucio Fulci achievement based on a script by Bruno Mattei and Claudio Fragasso." - toxiccrypt.fr

"Atmosphere that reminds me of the films I’ve shot for Lucio Fulci. Good tension. An excellent short." - Nino Celeste (DP, Lucio Fulci's The House of Clocks, The Sweet House of Horrors)

"... it's Italian horror." - Claudio Lattanzi (director Killing Birds)

This short film ended up on Grindsploitation 8: Drive-In Grindhouse distributed by Troma.
