vampira

(see also: )

For folks like me who love horror movies, Vampira was an icon. When I was a kid, I just couldnt get enough of the old movies that she would host (and I saw her stuff in reruns).

Of course, vampira was in Plan 9 From Outer Space.  Now I guess I could tell you she was sexy and naughty in the world of Sandra Dee, which would be accurate, but I think the fun thing about Maila Nurmi was that she did things her own way.

If you dont remember, You Tube has a whole channel dedicated to her.

Man, Vampira was groovy.

And for horror geeks like me.

Necessary.

So I lift my glass of blood red wine to Vampira.

May she travel well into that good night.
