I was first introduced to her via a film called "Tourist Trap" in which she played one of the four young people killed by maniac Chuck Conners.
She later played Julie Rogers in the final season of "Charlie's Angels" and then she hit it big. She landed the role of Kiri in "The Beastmaster" in 1982 and was a permanent fixture in the minds of many who saw it.
Two years later she got the starring role in the 1984 film "Sheena" and this is what Iremember her most for, as do most people. The film was sadly panned by most critics, but then what do they know.
The next year she starred opposite Roger Moore in the James Bond film "A View To A Kill" as Stacey Sutton. Soon after she started making a lot of erotic thrillers including "Night Eyes, "Inner Sanctum", and the wondeful "Sins Of Desire".
Another of her films I really enjoyed was "Purgatory" which is an often overlooked "Women In Prison" film. She passed away on Jan. 4th, 2021 at the young age of 65.
Her death came as a shock and all I can say is we lost a beautiful and talented "Angel".
The new Vinegar Syndrome Beastmaster blu ray is fantastic. You need to pick that up if you have not yet.
