One of the most beautiful actresses to ever grace the silver screen has passed away at the age of 87 from colon cancer. She was the first ever Bond Girl and she starred in many, many films, but genre fans will remember her most for Tarzan & The Mermaids, and my personal favorite, The Devil's Hand.
Her death was confirmed by her daughter Romina Powers and Romina's sister Taryn.
Linda was born in Mexico in under the name Blanca Rosa Welter and was the sister of Ariadna Welter whom she acted with in the Devil's Hand. Ariadna proceeded her in death in 1998.
Both women were stunning in their beauty and now both are gone. They are in a better place and a great sister duo of actresses have ended their legacy with the passing of Linda.
For lovers of movies from the silent era to modern day with an emphasis on horror, sci-fi, exploitation, WIP, westerns and anything of the fantastic and bizarre.
