Rainbeaux Smith

Rainbeaux Smith fascinates me as a figure who lived on the wild margins of 1970s and 80s cinema. A Los Angeles native who moved through horror and exploitation films, she became the kind of performer whose work later congealed into cult devotion rather than mainstream fame. I am drawn to artists like her who threw themselves into the rougher, riskier corners of the industry and were also musicians on the side, suggesting a restless creative spirit. Her death at 47 in 2002 cut short a singular run. To me she embodies a bittersweet, vanished chapter of independent film history.
