BOBBIE BRESEE, SCREAM QUEEN

There was no shortage of B-movie scream queens in the 80's and 90's. It seemed like countless filmmakers got into the act of creating horror movies with one or more sexy women to add a little spice to the blood and mayhem.

One of the more popular actresses was ex-Playboy bunny, buxom blonde Bobbie Bresee. She came to notoriety with her role as the sexually-possessed demon in MAUSOLEUM (1983). She appeared in several other "trash" films, including GHOULIES (1984), SURF NAZIS MUST DIE (1987), and EVIL SPAWN (1987). She later appeared in a number of TV shows and had a stint on the soap opera SANTA BARBARA.

This article from THE LATE SHOW (Vol. 1 No. 8, 1992) and the accompanying gallery shows what the fuss was all about.

VAMPIRELLA'S LITTLE SISTER

Riffing on Warren's title VAMPIRELLA, Hugh Gallagher's DRACULINA was focused on the sexy side of horror films and their female stars. This "Fear-Book" from 1992 showcases the (visual) talents of the voluptuous Bobbie Bresee and Hilary Lipton. Also included are features on Herschel Gordon Lewis, Playboy Playmates who appeared in horror films and necrophilia in the movies, as well as nude shots of Cassandra "Elvira" Peterson, Mathilda "Lifeforce" May and others. The magazine suffers from poor quality printing and photo reproductions, but Gallagher's heart was in the right place.
