Biografía

Was originally cast in La fiesta de los vampiros (1986) but left the production due to the poor treatment of the extras.

Has a daughter with her now ex-husband Don McClellan named Whitney Rose McClellan, who was born on February 13, 1989 in Los Angeles, California.

Interviewed in the book "Invasion of the B-Girls" by Jewel Shepard.

Appeared in an early '80s oil / mud wrestling video titled "Video Party," along with fellow future Scream Queen Linnea Quigley. The tape was distributed by a company called VideoSpace and is now virtually impossible to find.

Aside from being nude for her own roles, she has doubled for stars who decline nudity (including Margaux Hemingway and Judy Landers).

Basically, my philosophy is just to have fun and not be under stress, enjoy what I'm doing and not do anything morally wrong. The only things I can think of which would be morally wrong would be harming animals in a movie, or children--something that really goes against my beliefs.

I was scared to death of meeting Gunnar Hansen because growing up I saw Masacre en cadena (1974). I thought that guy was a real guy when I was very young. It was a very scary movie like the original La colina del terror (1977). So, when I met Gunnar, I'm going, "Oh my God, this guy's a maniac! I know he's nuts and he's got this maniacal look in his eye!" I met him and he's the most friendly, wonderful, fantastically cuddly, warmhearted gentleman you'd ever meet in your life. Just a big teddy bear and a pleasure to work with.

[on Jesús Franco ] I really adored that man. I'd love to work for him again. He had some very different ideas about things. I liked it not being the norm, you know. He had neat ideas and he was off the beaten path. He had ideas about his films and his stories. All I had to do was just go, "You know what? I'm just respecting what you're doing here."

[on Nightmare Sisters (1988)] I'm in this fat suit and my husband was driving by the set. He'd always stop by just to see how things were going. I'm standing out there on the parkway and he drives by, looks at me and didn't even know who I was. When he came walking up he looked at me and he goes," Is that you?"

My routine is to learn all of my lines before the start of photography. Then I re-brief the night before my scenes. I'll practice my lines anywhere: around the house, in the shower, in my car. You wouldn't believe the looks I get when I'm screaming my head off while on the freeway.
