The bodies are really starting to pile up today.
Just because we can, here’s another movie poster, this one for Karin: un corpo che brucia, which means “Karin: a body that burns.” They have a different type of body in mind than the makers of Cadavere per signora, but we’re calling this a theme anyway. The English title of the movie was Playmates, and the original French title was Le bal des voyous, which means “the ball of thugs”—ball like a dance. Sounds like an occasion to be avoided, save for the fact that it has Linda Veras and ex-Playboy playmate Donna Michelle, both below. They star with Jean-Claude Bercq and Henri Verdier, and the year was 1968.

They're supposed to be the windows to the soul, but we think of them as the keys to model identification.
Above is a 1966 Technicolor lithograph featuring an unidentified model. Well, she’s officially unidentified, but looks to us a lot like 1963 Playboy Playmate/1964 Playmate of the Year Donna Michelle. Trivia time: did you know she posed for the magazine when she was seventeen? Anyway, we can’t be sure this is her, but the resemblance is strong, especially around the eyes. See for yourself below. That's Michelle from her Playboy layout. The same shot as above also appeared on the cover of Caper magazine in November 1964, but the model does not appear inside, and is not credited.
