Obituaries

A pair of actresses who starred in cult films have died recently:

Lena Nyman, 66, star of a pair of 1960s Swedish films that were controversial for their time, I Am Curious Yellow and I Am Curious Blue, after a long illness.

Criterion video has both of those films on DVD, but they aren't anything I care to see.

Tura Satana, a resident of my former home of Reno, Nevada, starred in the Russ Meyer cult film Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! She is believed to have died Friday of heart failure. Satana was 72 or 75, depending on the source.

There was no nudity in this film, but it was a kind of oddball picture for its plot.
