BEFORE THEY WERE SCREAM QUEENS: ELKE SOMMER


Shown here is a photo spread of 18-year-old Berlin-born actress Elke Sommer from the Fall 1959 issue of MODERN MAN QUARTERLY (Volume 16). Identified as Elke "Summer" in the article, Miss Sommer was poised to become one of Hollywood's hottest imports of the 1960's. However, we wouldn't see her in any genre films until over a decade later, when she starred in BARON BLOOD (1972), LISA AND THE DEVIL (1973), and HOUSE OF EXORCISM (1975).
