Overview

She appeared in more than 50 British and American films between 1936 and 1950. She is best remembered as the Queen of the Screamers for her roles in nearly a dozen Universal horror films of the 1940s. She was the strikingly beautiful, Evelyn Ankers. As a tribute to Ankers, Abby Books presents 50 Evelyn Ankers Movie Stills, a collection of vintage movie stills and publicity photos from nearly 30 of her films. A companion to 32 Evelyn Ankers Movie Posters, 50 Evelyn Ankers Movie Stills features stills from Hit the Road (1941), Hold That Ghost (1941), Burma Convoy (1941), The Wolf Man (1941), North to Klondike (1942), The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942), Eagle Squadron (1942), Pierre of the Plains (1942), Sherlock Holmes of the Voice of Terror (1942), The Great Impersonation (1942), Captive Wild Woman (1943), All by Myself (1943), Son of Dracula (1943), You're a Lucky Fellow Mr. Smith (1943), The Mad Ghoul (1943), Weird Woman (1944), Jungle Woman (1944), The Invisible Man's Revenge (1944), The Pearl of Death (1944), Frozen Ghost (1945), The Fatal Witness (1945), The French Key (1946), Queen of Burlesque (1946), Black Beauty (1946), Spoilers of the North (1947), The Last of the Redmen (1947), Lone Wolf in London (1947), Tarzan's Magic Fountain (1949) and The Texan Meets Calamity Jane (1950). After a long film career, Ankers, married to leading actor Richard Denning, retired from movies to be a housewife. Occasionally she performed in a role on television. In 1960 she returned one last time to perform in the film, No Greater Love, with her husband. (At the age of 67, she died of ovarian cancer on August 29, 1985 in Maui.) 50 Evelyn Ankers Movie Stills is a fitting tribute to the lovely, statuesque actress who will never be forgotten.
