Barbara Steele: 70 or 69?
December 29, 2007 Birthdays, Brinke Stevens, Barbara Steele, Elvira No CommentsAnother one of our favorite princess celebrates her birthday today: Barbara Steele. Never quite figured out if she was born in 1937 or 1938 but what the hell? Seems that her next movie comes out in January 2008, which has the charming title of Her Morbid Desires. Cassandra Peterson and Brinke Stevens are also supposed to be in it, so who knows? These Sirens are hard to put down…

Anita Ekberg’s birthday
September 29, 2007 Birthdays, Anita Ekberg No Comments76 candles today for our Swedish beauty!
Martine Beswicke
September 26, 2007 Birthdays, Martine Beswicke No CommentsToday is Martine Beswicke’s 66th birthday, an actress that participated in three James Bond movies and some enjoyable Hammer Studios productions. I have always thought that she had the potential to become the next Barbara Steele and, in her own way, got her cult status by way of some fiery performances in the sixties and seventies.
Born in Jamaica, Martine will always be associated with bikinis and sunshine, having a fine time playing more often than not dominant characters. Alas, she hasn’t been seen on a movie project since 1995. If you have only one movie to choose from her past work, you can’t go wrong with Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde.
From cult magazine Cine.Zine.Zone, here’s a typical Martine pose:
