LINNEA QUIGLEY
"Linnea Quigley is undoubtedly horror's number one Scream Queen. As a young girl, Quigley dreamt of being either an actress or a police officer. Although she passed the written test to become an officer of the law, she decided upon acting.
She began starring in independant movies after moving to LA in the late 1970s and has since starred in over 100 feature films. Her most famous role being Trash, the red haired, dancing punk from
The Return of the Living Dead. This role solidified her career as a B-movie actress and she soon began taking various horror movie roles. In the late 1980s Linnea starred in such movies as
Sorority Babes in the Slime Ball Bowl-o-Rama, Night of the Demons and
Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers.
Quigley has written two books about her life on the B-movie Scene -
Chainsaw & Bio and
I'm Screaming as Fast as I Can. Her other publications include posing for several issues of Playboy and doing covers for Fangoria Magazine. But if you think you've got a chance with this smokin' hot scream queen, you might want to break out Linnea Quigley's Horror Work-Out and start sweatin' off the pounds first, boys!
Although most of Quigley's roles have been centered on exploitation and gore, her heart lies in preventing violence against animals. She has campaigned as one of PETA's "Lettuce Ladies" to garner attention for a noble cause and teach people about a healthy vegetarian diet. Quigley also makes a point of visiting as many conventions as possible each year to greet and visit with her loyal fans.
It's that kind of dedication that makes Linnea Quigley one of HDC's top 100 Horror Icons." -
