The film was one of three produced in Liverpool to celebrate the city's status as EU City of Culture in 2008, and was filmed on the set of former soap opera Brookside. It was produced on a minimal budget, and was the last time the Brookside set was used for filming purposes before it was sold to a private developer. Neve McIntosh won two Best Actress awards for her role in the film.

Production.

Salvage was one of three films produced celebrating Liverpool culture to coincide with the city's status of EU City of Culture in 2008. It was directed by Lawrence Gough.

Filming for Salvage had begun by March 2008, when the Liverpool Daily Post reported that the set of Brookside Close had been rented to a local production company to use as a production set. The production was a low-budget production titled Salvage. This was the last time the houses of the Brookside set were ever used for production purposes. It was sold to a private developer months later.

Release and reception.

The film received modest reviews following its release, and was not widely distributed. Despite the best efforts of the set designers, some reviewers did comment on its similarity to Brookside Close. Giving it three out of five stars, the magazine Time Out observed that the film had made clever use of the set.

The film, which marked Lawrence Gough's directing debut, won Neve McIntosh an International Fantasy Film Award for Best Actress in 2010as well as the Award for Best Horror Actress at the Fantastic Fest.

I think that this is such a creepy movie 2 watch, its got such a fantastic cast throughout this movie......I think that this is such an enjoyable movie 2 watch with such a great cast throughout this movie......I think that this is such a great creepy horror movie 2 watch, as the director keeps you on the edges of your seats throughout this movie as you never know what 2 expect throughout this movie..........
