A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Portsmouth, Virginia, USA
Born:
June 1, 1965
Daughter of an Anglican minister of British lineage and a full-blooded Native American / Algonquin mother, this 5'11" former model (born: India Juliana Orban) became Playboy Playmate of the Month December 1987 and then was selected for Playboy Playmate of the Year 1988. As usual, some acting opportunities followed shortly thereafter. Aside from taking on several lead roles in B movies, Allen also branched out to other film-related jobs. She produced the comedy Almost Hollywood (1994) and wrote and produced the western The Rowdy Girls (1999). She also directed and produced several schlock horror films for Troma Entertainment, which were deemed unreleasable by co-financier Lloyd Kaufman. Instead, they ended up being folded into the anthology Tales from the Crapper (2004). In her personal life, Allen was married to sportscaster Bill Macatee for a number of years but the two are now divorced.

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.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
