Elvira Mistress of the dark appreciation thread

[Cannikin]

I spent years watching her B-movies, Now I don't think they even show the reruns.

Pride on Parades ...

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark made appearances at both Los Angeles and San Francisco's Gay Pride Parade in '06. Elvira appeared on behalf of Project Angel Food, Out of the Closet Thrift Stores, and The AIDS Healthcare Foundation.

2. What a strange career!

Wasn't she a Groundling, or something?

and then ends up the vampire version of the dumb blonde.

How bizarre.

3. I appreciate her greatly...

Her, Kim Cattral, and Kathleen Turner were some of my first crushes growing up...:hi:

4. My gawd, she really IS the undead. Or is she just ANGELYNE????

these were the perpetual billboards we all saw for decades.




The years have NOT been kind.

6. You're right about one thing...in one pic Mr Gravity has taken hold

5. It's funny cause those pics are kind of scary

but I always thought she looked soft and squishy and goofy. She reminds me alot of my best friend at school, probably the first woman I ever really fell for (excepting Liesl in 'The Sound of Music'). My best friend was even more well endowed than Peterson, believe it or not, and she wore her hair kind of dyed and spikey in a way that inspired the frat boy punks we went to school with to call her "Vampirella".
