Chain Smoking=Not So Sexy


Puffing away the entire movie, Santana damages her appeal somewhat,IMHO. Like everyone that has seen this fabulous trainwreck, the flashlight-powered zombies were probably the top highlight. Headshaking entertainment.

I actually thought the chainsmoking enhanced her appeal...not that she needed it.

I'm used to it in that time. Smoking was seen as sexy, glamorous, and sophisticated back in the '50s and '60s. Not like today. It didn't make me think any less of her, though. Tura Satana was the highlight of the entire movie. I was the first time I watched it in a few years. I enjoyed it more as a teenager than I do now but it's still kind of entertaining.

Capnolagnia is completely binary. You get it or you don't.
