[RCMerchant]

Ok- I know we've done this before, but it was a long time ago, and we've had some new members since then so-Oh!! To make it interesting, include your favorite role by her.

1. Pam Grier- COFFY (1973)
2. Bette Davis- WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? (1962)
3. Musidora- I only seen her in LES VAMPIRES (1915) as Irma Vip, but that was enough. I was in love.
4. Louise Brooks- PANDORA'S BOX (1929)
5. Gloria Swanson- SUNSET BOULEVARD (1950)
6. Maila Nurmi aka Vampira- PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE (1959) Yeh I know. It's her only (big?) role, but I've read the story of her life and it's amazing.
7. Barbara Steele- BLACK SUNDAY (1960)
8. Charlene Theron- MONSTER (2003)
9. Karen Black- EASY RIDER (1969)
