Molly Bee
Molly Bee, born Mollie Gene Beachboard, made her mark in the 1960s with her role in Hillbillys in a Haunted House (1967), where she showcased her unique blend of country music and acting. Known for her previous work as Pinky Lee's sidekick, Bee transitioned seamlessly into the realm of cult cinema, bringing her vibrant energy to the film's eccentric narrative. Her presence in this offbeat comedy highlights the intersection of music and genre film, offering a distinctive flavor to the grindhouse experience.
Hillbillys in a Haunted House
A pair of country singers and their band are headed to Nashville. Their car unfortunately breaks down and they stop overnight at an abandoned house, which turns out to be haunted. A ring of international spies (Lon Chaney, Jr., Basil Rathbone and John Carradine) who live in the haunted house are seeking a top-secret formula for rocket fuel. While it's never revealed for whom they are spying, they carry out their activities under the cover of a supposed haunted house, which comes complete with a gorilla lurking in the basement.
