Athena Massey


Athena Massey is an American actress and model best known for starring in a series of "B" pictures in the 1990s, including some for Roger Corman. Massey was a model before becoming an actress, and moved into leads with the erotic thriller Undercover Heat for Gregory Dark; she later said she regretted this as it typecast her and she turned down a number of subsequent offers to make erotic thrillers. The film was described in Sight and Sound magazine as "mainstream exploitation at its most unabashed."
Massey co starred with Don Wilson in two action films, Virtual Combat and CyberTracker 2. She was going to make a film for Corman in Ireland called Desdemona and Othello playing Bianca in an adaptation of Othello, but the project fell over shortly before filming. She played the lead in other films for Corman in Ireland such as Shadow of a Scream and Star Portal, as well as making Termination Man for Corman in the Ukraine.
