Title: Re: RIP Tura Satana Post by: Raffine on February 06, 2011, 09:22:14 AM RIP :bluesad: I thought about you, Venomx, when I heard the news. RIP to a great lady. Title: Re: RIP Tura Satana Post by: BTM on February 06, 2011, 12:19:33 PM Wow, that really sucks.
I have admit, even though I read up on her a bit after seeing her in a clip from one of her flick, I didn't learn too much about her. Now, RE-reading some stuff about her, I'm just blown away. I haven't seen her most popular film Faster p***ycat, Kill Kill (come to think of it, is that ever been released on VHS?), but get this, her REAL life is way crazier than anything any Grindhouse revenge flic could depict. According to Wikipedia she developed at a young age and was gang-raped at the age of nine. All the perps went free, so she studied martial arts and, years later, tracked them down one by one and beat the hell out of them! Anyway, I wish the best for her kids and grandkids.

She made dangerous and badass gals so hot and yet she always came across as boss. Way ahead of her time when it comes to films...
Title: Re: RIP Tura Satana Post by: retrorussell on February 06, 2011, 05:33:26 PM Damn shame. Faster.. was my favorite Russ Meyer film, due in large part to her.
Title: Re: RIP Tura Satana Post by: Allhallowsday on February 07, 2011, 09:46:15 PM TURA SATANA will live as long as the world remains interested in RUSS MEYER... I think TURA SATANA copyrighted her own image and thereby interfered with later distribution of FASTER, p***yCAT! KILL! KILL! :question:
Good night, TURA. http://www.badmovies.org/forum/index.php/topic,114837.0.html (http://www.badmovies.org/forum/index.php/topic,114837.0.html) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOCe209E37A Title: Re: RIP Tura Satana Post by: lester1/2jr on February 08, 2011, 11:33:38 AM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXwP4qFWCW4
Title: Re: RIP Tura Satana Post by: Saucerman on February 09, 2011, 05:45:24 AM I had the good fortune of meeting Tura last April -- she was still bold, brassy and commanding. I wrote a remembrance piece here (http://www.bloodsprayer.com/featured/a-velvet-glove-cast-in-iron-remembering-tura-satana-1938-2011/).
