RIP ARLENE DAHL 1925-2021

A screen legend is gone.

Arlene Dahl started her screen career in 1947 with an uncredited role in the film "Life With Father". She got bigger roles the next year in "My Wild Irish Rose" and "The Bride Goes Wild".

In 1949 she played the beautiful Madelon in "Reign Of Terror". She is tortured in the film by actor Charles McGraw and the scene was an eye opener in 1949. Another great film was "Slightly Scarlet" which was a classic film noir made in color.

Her most famus role for genre fans was in the 1959 classic "Journey To The Center Of The Earth". The gorgeous red head also appeared in TV shows like "Burke's Law", "Love American Style", "Riverboat" and "Laugh-In" to name just a few.

She retired from acting and started her own business called Arlene Dahl Enterprises which marketed lingerie and cosmetics.

Arlene Dahl passed away on Nov. 29th, 2021 at the age of 96.
