Trivia

When it comes to Lynne Frederick’s filmography, fans and critics often point to Vampire Circus (1972) as her standout performance—widely regarded as her highest rated movie. It’s a film that really showcases Lynne Frederick’s talent and remains a favorite among her works. On the other hand, The Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu (1980) tends to receive much more mixed, if not negative, reviews, making it Lynne Frederick’s lowest rated film by comparison. While Lynne Frederick brought charm and elegance to every role, this particular project didn’t quite hit the mark for most audiences. Still, it’s interesting to see the range in Lynne Frederick’s career, from cult classics like Vampire Circus to less successful ventures later on.
