Tura Satana as Varla

Am I alone in thinking that this woman is an absolute legend? Lori Williams and Haji are great too, but it’s Tura Satana who steals the show as Varla, the bisexual, kickboxing, murderous, manically evil go-go dancer who leads the trio of busty criminals. She is like Cruella de Vil on acid --- truly one of the great villainesses of the cinema. Moreover, she is incredibly sexy with her awesome rack, long raven hair and striking feline looks (half Apache and half Japanese). My favorite scene of Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! is when she performs vicious karate moves on the guy and then breaks his back. Yowza!

I'd say more like Cruella De Ville on Crystal Meth! But I see your point.

Gak is best when eaten live.

the part she plays is great, fact is as an actor she sucks horribly, she should not have been lead, all she had where tits no face no figure.

She was great and after reading about her past I was so happy to see she made it :)

Do guys like "the thing"?
They like it better than no thing.

She was excellent in this movie. After watching this, I can see why her performance is considered legendary to many. It barely even felt like she was acting, it felt as if she really was Varla. Her performance was the best part of the film.

Come, fly the teeth of the wind. Share my wings.
