Annik Borel was a gorgeous, statuesque and voluptuous blond actress who popped up in a handful of enjoyably sleazy 70's exploitation features made in both Europe and America. She was born as Anne Borel in 1948 in Besancon, France. Borel made a memorable film debut as a drug dealer's predatory swinging bisexual girlfriend in the sordid "Weekend With the Babysitter." She then made a guest appearance on an episode of the hit sitcom "The Odd Couple." Annik has minor parts in two movies: she's a persecuted witch in Ted V. Mikels' cruddy "Blood Orgy of the She Devils" and a topless hooker in the funky blaxploitation blast "Truck Turner." Borel achieved her greatest enduring schlock cult cinema fame with her lead role as a troubled young lady who thinks she's a werewolf in Rino Di Silvestro's outrageously scuzzy Italian horror hoot "Werewolf Woman." Alas, following her appearances in the European trash pictures "Black Aphrodite" and "Erotic Encounters" Annik Borel suddenly quit acting and seems to have disappeared altogether.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
