RUSS MEYER'S 1966 cult trash movie classic, "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" was about three powerful, murderous, bike-riding strippers, played memorably by Tura Satana, Lori Williams and Haji.
And now comes the news that Quentin Tarantino is eager to remake "Pussycat."
And now he thinks he may have found at least one of his leading ladies in the form of Tera Patrick, who is the No. 1 "erotic performer" in the world.
Montana-born Miss Patrick received a degree in biology from the U. of Boise and worked as an emergency tech nurse. Still, she had a higher calling. Modeling led to work in the adult film field, and now she's rolling in it. Money, that is.
But, though still a hot ticket -- and remarkably sophisticated and grounded, considering the milieu she rules, Tera says, "I am the first to admit I can't do this forever! I'd love to cross over and do more "regular movies."
Tarantino, who has admired her past performances, thinks his "Pussycat" remake may be the mainstream jumpstart Tera needs.
In the meantime, while she awaits the official red carpet, Tera and her husband, musician Evan Seinfeld, continue to build on their joint endeavor, Teravision, which produces her films for distribution.
