Oscar De Fina
Pasquale Vincenzo Oscar Garibaldi De Fina (born October 1, 1917 in La Maddalena , † May 15, 1988 in Vimercate ) was an Italian journalist and film director .
De Fina worked mainly as a journalist, but also devoted himself to a few film projects in the 1960s, after having worked as an assistant director for Gianni Vernuccio in 1959 . His five films, almost single-handedly - in addition to the script, he also took on the production and editing - all saw little circulation and were considered by critics to be among the worst they had ever seen. He worked several times in these very cheaply produced strips under pseudonyms.
