• “Nothing short of a miracle…Not since Robert Evans became THE FIEND WHO WALKED THE WEST has anyone put together such a retro Horror Western… David Guglielmo as a director is well on his way to the planet of the auteurs with DAMN YOUR EYES… I for one cannot wait to see the full length version of this film.” – David Del Valle, Author (Lost Horizons Beneath The Hollywood Sign)
• “Great fun! A terrific cast.” -Dennis Dermody, Paper Magazine

• “Very evocative and the filmmaking skilled. A strong aesthetic drive.” -Larry Fessenden, Director (Habit, The Last Winter) and President, Glass Eye Pix

• “An extremely faithful reconstruction of the Spaghetti Western, thankfully playing it totally straight and not going for a lazy parody. It’s a very low budget short but doesn’t show it…Impressively authentic looking sets and costumes…I was gripped throughout.” -BlueprintReview.co.uk
• “What more could any Westploitation fan wish for?” – BestForFilm.com

• “A low budget short film that plays like a sprawling big budget Spaghetti Western…David is doing a lot right” -BadGuyFilms.com
• “Guglielmo proves he’s the owner of a fierce and dual competency, illustrating his formidable might behind the camera and on the paper.

• “David Guglielmo must have balls the size of El Paso. To attempt a Western as your first film is as daring as anything pulled off by the Ocean’s 11 team…But Guglielmo pulls it off…Brilliant for a first time director…the type of short that can play in front of any horror film in theatres and likely elicit a more positive response than the feature.” – KillerReviews.com
• “Guglielmo makes the concept his own…There is a bigger budget look to this lo-fi production…A mini-movie like Damn Your Eyes really does make you yearn for the entire thing.” – DVDVerdict.com
