Though this post may seem like it was meant to belatedly celebrate Halloween, there is actually a more exceptional reason it was written.
A year and a half ago, I wrote an article on busty actresses in vintage cinema, where I mentioned how Hazel Court had appeared topless for a supposedly lost scene from 1959’s “The Man who Could Cheat Death”. Well, that scene has been found, remastered and included in a new 4K version of the movie. To put it into perspective, this footage hadn’t been seen in over 65 years and was one of the very first times a woman bared her breasts for a horror film.
To commemorate this surprising and unexpected find, we’re going to look at other women who got topless for motion pictures of the aforementioned genre. However, bear in mind that, since there are literally hundreds of nude scenes in horror flicks, I’m just going to mention a few personal favorites that readers might not know. I also won’t mention girls I’ve talked about on my previous articles, or obvious actresses like Julia Benson and Cassandra Peterson (aka Elvira).
Jordan Phipps
Jordan is an occasional actress and model who showed her huge breasts in the 2018 horror movie “Close Calls”. Unfortunately, this is so far the only time she’s posed topless.

Thelma Reston
Brazilian actress Thelma Reston boasted an extremely lengthy filmography, appearing in movies and soap operas almost every year from 1964 to 2012. However, the only time she showed her large, full breasts was for a horror/dark comedy film called “Os Sete Gatinhos” (aka “The Seven Kittens”). Aside from the scene the screenshot shows, she masturbates in bed at one point, covered from the waist down but with her breasts fully exposed.
Julianna Guill
The “Friday the 13th” movie series is ripe with nude girls (including Debi Sue Vorhees, who coincidentally has the same surname as Jason), though none was as busty as Julianna Guill. Sadly, the 2009 remake of the 1980 slasher is the only time she’s been topless, and it seems Julianna has since adamantly refused to appear naked in sex scenes.
Luan Peters
While Luan’s name might not be as famous in the world of Hammer horror as that of Ingrid Pitt or Caroline Munro, she was certainly a gorgeous woman with a rack to match. Though she usually played side characters and bit parts, Peters features prominently in “The Flesh and Blood Show” and “Land of the Minotaur”.
The screenshot is from a movie called “Man of Violence”, where a woman rips her bra off, exposing her lovely boobs.
Isabel Sarli
Isabel is arguably Argentina’s most famous sex symbol, for two very good and very obvious reasons. She became Miss Argentina in the 50s and was the first woman to do full frontal nudity in an Argentinian movie.
Due to how often Isabel showed her breasts, her movies were deemed controversial and often banned, but they’ve since been regarded as cult classics.
She was asked to appear in Hammer’s “The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll”, but refused. Instead, she starred in the horror movie “Embrujada”, about a woman who goes to a witch to get pregnant.

Madeline Smith
Madeline is best known for her roles in Hammer films. Her nude scene with Ingrid Pitt in “Vampire Lovers” is still one of my favorites from horror movies. Madeline herself had a fairly prolific career in movies and TV during the 70s. Her other topless scene besides the one from “Vampire Lovers” was in a comedy called “Up Pompeii” and her boobs actually look bigger in the latter.
Hope Marie Carlton
Playmate of the Month for July 1985, Hope was in several horror movies, including “A Nightmare on Elm Street 4”. However, one of her sexiest scenes was in “Ghoulies 3”, where she performs a striptease and follows it with a shower scene.
Kimberly McArthur
Playmate of the Month for January 1982, Kim starred in only one horror movie (“Slumber Party Massacre II”), and she didn’t even strip in it. However, she’s so breathtaking that I couldn’t resist mentioning her. Here’s a screenshot from “Young Doctors in Love”.

Patricia Haines
If you’re a fan of “Allo!Allo!”, you may be interested in watching “Virgin Witch”, which features nude scenes with Vicki Michelle, who played the waitress Yvette in the aforementioned sitcom, and her sister Ann. However, in the bosom department, both pale in comparison to Patricia Haines, who shows her breasts in the movie’s opening credits and during a satanic orgy.
Patricia had 70 movie credits under her belt and was briefly married to actor Michael Caine.
Stephanie Beacham
Personally, I’m quite fond of two horror films Stephanie was in, namely “And Now the Screaming Starts” and “House of Mortal Sin”. However, she didn’t get naked in either. Instead, she has a couple of nice nude scenes in a poliziottesco (Italian action crime movies often in the style of “Dirty Harry”), called in English “Super Bitch” (though the Italian title, which translates to “Can you be a Bigger Bastard than Inspector Cliff?”, is more appropriate).
Stefania Sandrelli
Since this wouldn’t feel like a proper horror list without a single Italian, here’s Stefania, an actress I neglected to mention in one of my previous articles. Stefania has been acting since 1961 and her latest movie premiered last year. She also stars in “Black Belly of the Tarantula”, one of my favorite gialli. Nuditywise, she looked pretty nice in 1983’s “The Key”, though it’s not a horror film.
