Would be nice to see if Bruce or Joe (dangit, called him Jeff before the edit) could find an interview to show. I've read a few she gave over the years. She was a very interesting lady.

That right, I'd forgotten. I know some folks didn't like it, but I rather enjoyed that documentary. I love when Bruce finds something a little out of the norm like that. Part of the reason I love the 'hons so much.

I'll miss her,too. I've met her a couple times in LA during my travels and she was such a fun and nice person. I was talking with Ken at Cinema Wasteland about having her as guest soon due to her Vampira The Movie being one of the top sellers of 2007. People must have been interested. I have a couple rare docs on her that never got released that are way more interesting than Vampira and some of the other Ed Wood stuff. In one she refers to humanity as "a bunch of hollowed out mannequins". Definetly,she was one of the first "goths" in her speaking and manner. I was truly miss her and now treasure all the stuff she autographed for me. Same with Bob Clark. He was a nice guy and treasure as well.
