In a single scene in a single film, Tura Satana forever changed
the world of American cinema. Faced with an all-American boy and
his all-American girlfriend, her wild go go dancer races him,
cheats him and fights him, leaving him dead in the dirt. Suddenly
it was possible for a woman to be tough and female at the same time
and nobody has yet mastered that like Tura Satana did as Varla in
"Faster, Pussycat Kill Kill "
In this book, the first full filmography of Tura Satana, film
critic Hal C F Astell of Apocalypse Later explores her brief but
important screen career through a comprehensive look at each of her
feature films and TV show episodes.
The book features a foreword by Peaches Christ, legendary
midnight movie maven in San Francisco who appeared in Tura's film,
"Astro Zombies: M3 - Cloned"; and an afterword by Cody Jarrett, who

sourced from her unpublished memoir, "The Kick-Ass Life of Tura
