RIP Karen Black

Part one:

Part two:

Part three:

“Trilogy of Terror” absolutely terrified me when I first saw it as a teenager. Very sad news to hear that Karen Black has passed away after a battle with cancer that had left her bedridden for quite sometime.

In three parts, here she is in THAT short film, with THAT doll. I think I looked at all my dolls differently after this one 😉

RIP Karen Black…

Maria Montez….The Queen of Technicolor, The Queen of Camp, The Caribbean Cyclone…Not the Greatest Actress; But She Was GREAT!

I am currently in the early research stages on my newest project, a biography/filmography on “The Queen of Technicolor” – Maria Montez.

While there have been two Spanish-language books written on Montez’s life and career, there’s yet to be a book written in English. Now’s the time. I have some wonderful resources and equally wonderful people, all over the world, helping with this new project.

I’m hoping some relatives of Maria will be found along the way, too. 

So, I will begin this creative process yet again…this time, following the path of Maria Montez, from her early days in the Dominican Republic…to Hollywood…and her early-death at age 39 (September 7, 1951) in Paris, France.

The journey begins now! Let’s take it together. If YOU have something to share, please feel free to e-mail me @ – mvozus@gmail.com
