 Dawn Dunlap   in Barbarian Queen





Dawn Dunlap  (Laura) Mini Biography Adorable baby doll brunette beauty Dawn Dunlap (Born 1962, Texas) had a regrettably fleeting film career from the late 70s up until the mid 80s. Dawn was born in 1962 in Austin, Texas. She made her  debut at age 16 in the titular role of a lovely and naive, yet enticing ballet dancer in the steamy soft-core feature "Laura." Dunlap was especially memorable as sweet space station crew member Tracy Baxter in the entertainingly trashy "Alien" rip-off "Forbidden World." Dunlap's sole mainstream movie credit was a small role as hooker Maxine in Ron Howard's hilarious comedy "Night Shift." Alas, following her sizable co-starring part as Lana Clarkson's innocent little sister Taramis in the hugely enjoyable "Barbarian Queen" Dawn Dunlap called it a day as an actress and went back to her native Texas.

IMDb Review

This is some god forsaken piece of blood soaked, gory piece of cinema. Then again calling it a piece of cinema is going a bit too far. This is just a collection of (good) SFX shots of mangled bodies and people getting slashed in all manner of fashions. I love violence in movies, but this is really Beyond The Limits. I have no idea of what those mad Germans were thinking, but this is too much. A little recap of what you can see in the movie^
  • heads getting cut off
  • women raped
  • legs, hands? fingers ripped off
  • people tortured in every possible manner
and so on and so on. To be honest, if I would have red this earlier I would have loved to see the movie, but now I have to admit that I feel kind of dirty. I'll go and take a long shower and not sleep for a week.
