Karin Dor started her wonderful film career in the 1953 film "The Last Waltz" as an extra. Her career in horror began in 1962 with "The Invisible Dr. Mabuse" which I just reviewed a few days ago.
Her appearances in horror and suspense film made in Europe increased and included some well known genre titles including "Carpet of Horror", "Strangler Of Blackmoor Castle", "Face of Fu Manchu", "Torture Chamber of Dr. Sadism" and "Assignment Terror" with Paul Naschy.
In 1967 she was a Bond girl in "You Only Live Twice" with Sean Connery. I loved her in everything I saw her in and thought she was one of the most beautiful women ever to grace the silver screen.
Her work was and will always be exceptional in my book and she will be missed. She died on Nov. 8th, 2017 at the age of 79 in Munich, Germany.
