'Salom' (also known as 'Salomi') is a 1972 Italian drama film directed and produced by Carmelo Bene. This film has been music composed by Ashley Irwin. The film starring Carmelo Bene, Lydia Mancinelli, Alfiero Vincenti and Donyale Luna in the lead roles.

A psychedelic re-telling of the biblical story. Salome is the daughter of the second wife of King Herod. The King is infatuated with her and after she fails to seduce the prophet John (The Baptist) she dances for the King in order to ask for his execution. The story is told in a bizarre way of fast cuts, repetitive dialogue and extreme satire.
