The impressive insert from The Ten Commandments
As the Eurasian Sally Lung, in Cecil B. DeMille's 1923 cinemasterpiece, Nita, with her slanted oriental eyes, blue-black hair, scarlet lips and voluptuous figure is pure nitroglycerin. A multi-talented courtesan, she gives her rabid and very married suitor, Dan McTavish (Rod Laroque), a Chinese love potion to get a priceless rope of pearls. When his luck turns and he desperately needs money, he begs Sally to return the pearls to him. Alas, the heartless Sally refuses. Angry and frantic, Dan turns violent and kills her. Nevertheless, even in death Sally has her revenge. Watch this movie to discover how our favorite vampire pulls this one off!
