Sallin balances enlightened perspective on Giger's mythopoeic style - his feverish fusions of flesh, exoskeleton and machine, probing depths of the human condition - with casual rhythms of his daily life. June 25, 2015 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

The spectre of imminent mortality ... adds a layer of poignancy to what might otherwise have been a more prosaic, if still totally interesting, portrait of an eccentric creator. June 9, 2015 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Attempts to explore the darkness behind the art, but mostly finds a man living out his golden years in peace. June 4, 2015 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

Death has always hung like a shadow over Giger and his art, which has its passionate partisans, but is not for the faint of heart. May 28, 2015 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Sallin skillfully shows this horrific fantasy as disturbingly close to reality, lending Giger's work a relevance that its gruesome nature might otherwise overshadow. February 6, 2020 | Full Review…

Belinda Sallin's skimpy look inside the home of the Swiss artist H.R. Giger in the final months of his life would have made a brilliant episode of Cribs, but it's just a doodle as a feature-length documentary. May 15, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

[H.R.] Giger's work tapped into the otherwise unremembered trauma of the perinatal journey; all he really knew was that in general he put his exquisitely creepy visions on canvas to keep them from freaking him out. August 24, 2017 | Full Review…

It's the small details that lead us to the conclusion that the artist was not only capable of giving shape to a decidedly perturbed subconscious, but felt exceptionally comfortable in it. [Full Review in Spanish] April 5, 2016 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Only a few of the personal responses or reminiscences here are truly interesting. But it's Giger's images alone which hold our gaze, confronting and confounding us, intriguing and chilling, snaking and startling. February 9, 2016 | Full Review…
