His first work appears to be a role in TV series "O Symvolaiografos", for Greek ERT. He gained excellent critiques, as one of the biggest talents for serious roles ever! Short after he started making the so-called "videocasettes", movies meant to make career not on cinema, but in video-clubs. The critiques, by the same people, were now horrible! But in the pubic opinion he became top comedian, and all his "videocasettes" are Cult now. Especially the movie "Vasika Kalispera Sas", is mostly a documentary today than a comedy. Stathis Psaltis is often called "King of Cult" and "King of the '80s".
