Anita Strindberg

Anita Strindberg (born 19 June 1937) is a Swedish former actress who appeared in numerous Italian giallo films in the 1970s.

Anita Strindberg (1972)

Strindberg appeared as Anita Edberg in two Swedish films in the late 1950s.[1] She started her career in gialli with Lucio Fulci's A Lizard in a Woman's Skin in 1971 and starred in her first lead role that same year, in the Sergio Martino-directed The Case of the Scorpion's Tail. In 1972, she starred in two more gialli: Aldo Lado's Who Saw Her Die? and Martino's Your Vice Is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key.[2]

After the early 1970s, Strindberg acted in many types of genre films: a women in prison film Women in Cell Block 7 (1973); the Exorcist-like horror film The Antichrist (1974); and the poliziotteschi film Almost Human (1974), directed by Umberto Lenzi. Her last film was Riccardo Freda's Murder Obsession, also known as Fear co-starring Laura Gemser.[2]
