If you dig stuff like Amazon Women On The Moon, The Kentucky Fried Movie, Movie 43, Tunnel Vision, TV The Movie, Dead Pixels or any of the Firesign Theatre stuff, then this is fun. Among many, it also has Victoria Medlin who was in the original 1971 car movie Vanishing Point.

She was daughter of director-writer Barry Levinson, who did stuff like ..And Justice For All, Diner, Avalon, Wag The Dog, Good Morning Vietnam, Rain Man & wrote for Mel Brooks. But after boyfriend Paul Stanley of KISS broke up with her in 1978, she was found dead of apparent suicide. One can only speculate why she did what she did. Afterward he was involved with Cher’s little sis Georganne LaPiere, then Dan Akroyd’s future wife Donna Dixon, etc. He included a dedication to her in his 1st solo album.

It is said there are two versions of her death: That she was found dead with pills and another that she shot herself in Paul’s dad’s antique shop. It is also speculated that Erika Shulmann, who worked for him on tour, is his daughter via Vickie in 1972 after she made Vanishing Point. She was also a singer-songwriter, appearing in productions of Hair & composing jingles for tv, which Paul also did. It’s also said that Erika isn’t Vickie’s daughter, but Paul’s sister Julia’s- however Julia is homosexual & doesn’t like her brother at all. Erika was raised in Paul’s parents home & he paid for her private school & spent his time with her when not touring- and she probably is very likely Paul’s niece & not his daughter via the late Victoria Medlin, even though there’s plenty of coincidences.
