Actress Lynda Wiesmeier gained notoriety for her roles in a few well-known movies.
However, one particular photo of her has drawn notice recently since it seems to offer a window into a bygone period.
Lynda Ann Wiesmeier, a blonde bombshell whose voluptuous form adorned the pages of Playboy Magazine, was born in Washington, D.C., in 1963
Her father was a doctor in the US Air Force, and Bitburg, Germany, was the starting point of her adventure. The family relocated frequently prior to Lynda’s eventual arrival in sunny Los Angeles. She also lived for a while in Bound Brook, New Jersey, where she established herself as a frequent Jersey coast sun worshipper.
starring in a zombie film
Lynda enjoyed working and being active, juggling three professions: acting, modeling, and office clerking in a medical facility.
Last motion picture
However, her last movie may have been the one that made people take notice of Lynda Wiesmeier. She was chosen to play Dianne in the zombie horror film Evil Town in 1987.
The film featured the renowned Dean Jagger in the lead role of an insane scientist searching for perpetual youth. His approach? making a medication synthetically from human pituitary fluid, naturally. Things got worse as he was extracting the fluid; the poor donors’ brainless zombies were the product of the process.
In an intriguing turn of events, Keith Hefner, the younger brother of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, was also featured in Evil Town. With Lynda and Keith involved, the movie had a strong Playboy vibe.
Though the movie was scheduled to open in theaters on June 3, 1987, there was so much anticipation that several theaters opened their screens a day early, on June 2. Nevertheless, Evil Town fell short of expectations despite the hype.
It was derided by critics who labeled it a “silly horror film.” Cavett Binion of All Movie Guide noted that the picture was a mash-up of footage from previous movies, including a 1970s unfinished effort, and that former Playboy Playmate Lynda Wiesmeier “spiced it up with some gratuitous nudity.” Hurt!
Fortunately, Lynda Wiesmeier was destined for a little return. In the years after its debut, a specific scene from Evil Town has become extremely popular for unknown reasons.
It’s not, however, for the reasons that one might think.
Picture of Lynda Wiesmeier
Scott Hunter, an almost unknown actor, appears on screen with Lynda in this unforgettable scene.
This appears to be your typical 1980s photo at first sight. A young guy and lady are posing in front of a Dodge automobile while wearing iconic ’80s clothing. But if you examine more closely, you might find something surprising!
Lynda is wearing high-waisted white shorts with a bright red blouse that is intricately knotted at the waist, while the man is wearing dark shorts and a gray hoodie with multicolored patterns all over it. Back then, short shorts were all the rage, and Scott wore his with one of those ubiquitous corduroy shirts.
Their vintage attire is a lovely return to the 1980s for many, since it screams ’80s fashion. And it’s just this that makes people swoon over this picture.
The 1980s saw a large, vivid, and dramatic fashion trend that we embraced, including glam rock, punk, and preppy designs.
We could experiment with hair, cosmetics, colors, and an abundance of plastic jewelry along with other wild accessories. And because to Lynda and Scott, we can sometimes be transported back in time to this amazing era with just a simple shot from a lesser-known movie.
departed the field
Following her departure from the film business, Lynda decided to start a family and married her first husband. She went on to have two amazing children, a son and a daughter.
The family made their home in Lafayette, Louisiana, where Lynda started working as a records manager at a legal firm, according to Joyce’s Take.
But then things changed, and in 2004 Lynda, ready to start again, packed her bags and moved to sunny California following her divorce. Lynda loved her relationship with her followers, even as she moved on. She became well-known at several fan events, sharing her experiences and signing autographs, such as WonderCon, Glamourcon, and The Hollywood Collectors Show.
Reason for demise
Sadly, Lynda’s adventure came to an end in December 2012, at the age of 49, after a valiant fight with a brain tumor.
Considering what she could have said about her time in movies like Evil Town, a nostalgic snapshot of a bygone period in movies, is bittersweet.
We can still honor Lynda’s legacy and the happiness she gave her admirers despite her passing. If you too miss the 1980s, please share this article!
“MY SON WAS GOING TO MARRY THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE, BUT THE SECRET LETTER RUINED THEIR WEDDING.
The air in the grand ballroom buzzed with a joyous anticipation thick enough to taste. Fairy lights twinkled like captured stars, reflecting in the polished dance floor. Bouquets of white roses and baby’s breath adorned every table, their delicate fragrance mingling with the sweet scent of the elaborate wedding cake standing proudly in the corner. My heart swelled with happiness. My son, Daniel, my only child, was finally marrying the love of his life, Emily.
Emily was everything we could have hoped for – kind, intelligent, and with a smile that could light up a room. Daniel was utterly smitten, and seeing them together filled me with a profound sense of peace. The wedding preparations had been a whirlwind of excitement, and now, as the guests started to arrive, everything seemed perfect.
I stood near the entrance, greeting family and friends, my eyes constantly scanning for Daniel. He looked dashing in his tailored suit, a nervous but excited grin plastered on his face. Emily, a vision in white lace, floated down the aisle earlier, her radiant smile captivating everyone.
As Daniel stood at the altar, waiting for the ceremony to begin, the maid of honor, Sarah, Emily’s best friend since childhood, approached him. Sarah was a bright and bubbly young woman, always full of energy. She gave Daniel a warm hug, a gesture of affection and support. But then I noticed something odd. As she embraced him, her hand subtly slipped a folded piece of paper into his palm. I also caught a hushed whisper, her lips barely moving against his ear: “Read it and run.”
My brow furrowed. What was that about? Sarah stepped back, her smile perhaps a touch too wide, and took her place beside Emily. Daniel, still holding the letter concealed in his hand, seemed a little distracted, his eyes flicking towards Sarah.
The ceremony began, the officiant’s voice resonating through the room. But Daniel’s attention seemed elsewhere. The moment the officiant paused, Daniel subtly unfolded the letter, his eyes darting across the page. The transformation was instantaneous and terrifying. The color drained from his face, his jaw clenched, and his eyes widened in utter shock. It was as if a switch had been flipped, turning his joy into sheer disbelief and something akin to horror.
“What happened, dear?” I asked, my voice laced with fear as I reached out to touch his arm.
He flinched, pulling away sharply. “I have to go, Mom. Now,” he replied, his voice low and strained, almost a growl. He abruptly turned, his back to the altar, to Emily, to everyone. He strode with a determined, almost frantic pace towards the exit, ignoring the bewildered stares of the guests. He didn’t even look back. He reached the car, jumped in, and with a screech of tires, sped away, leaving a stunned silence in his wake.
I was utterly baffled, my heart pounding in my chest. What could possibly have been in that letter? I turned to look at the altar, where Emily stood frozen, her perfect smile slowly crumbling into a mask of confusion and hurt. Tears welled up in her eyes, and her shoulders began to tremble.
My gaze then fell upon Sarah, the maid of honor. She stood beside Emily, her hand resting reassuringly on her friend’s arm. But what struck me was the strange, almost triumphant smile playing on her lips. It was fleeting, quickly replaced by an expression of concern as she noticed me approaching.
“Sarah,” I said, my voice trembling with a mixture of anger and confusion, “What was in the letter you gave to my son?”
Her eyes widened, and a flicker of terror crossed her face, momentarily eclipsing her earlier smugness. She looked at me, her lips quivering, and stammered, “I just… I just wanted him to know the truth.”
“The truth about what?” I pressed, my patience wearing thin. The entire wedding party was now in disarray, guests whispering amongst themselves, their initial joy replaced by a palpable sense of unease. Emily was now openly weeping, her dream wedding dissolving before her eyes.
Sarah hesitated, her gaze darting between me and Emily. “I… I can’t say,” she finally whispered, her voice barely audible above the murmuring crowd. “It’s not my place. But he needed to know. For his own good.”
Her cryptic words only deepened my confusion and anxiety. What kind of truth could be so devastating that it would cause my son to abandon his wedding at the last minute? I looked at Emily, her face streaked with tears, her eyes filled with a pain that mirrored my own. This was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, and it had been shattered in an instant, all thanks to a whispered secret and a hastily written letter.
The following hours were a blur of chaos and heartbreak. Emily, supported by her family and friends, retreated to a private room, her sobs echoing through the stunned silence of the ballroom. The guests, unsure of what to do, began to leave, their well-wishes and celebratory mood replaced by hushed speculation and awkward condolences.
I tried to reach Daniel on his phone, but he didn’t answer. My calls went straight to voicemail, his recorded message a cruel reminder of the happy days that now seemed so distant. I drove home, my mind racing, replaying the scene over and over again. What could have been so earth-shattering? Had Emily done something? Had Sarah uncovered some terrible secret about her? Or was it something about Daniel himself?
Days turned into weeks, and Daniel remained unreachable. He had seemingly vanished without a trace, leaving behind a heartbroken fiancée and a bewildered mother. Emily, though devastated, showed incredible strength. She faced the cancelled wedding and the ensuing gossip with grace, surrounded by the unwavering support of her loved ones.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, I received a message from Daniel. It was a short, cryptic text: “Mom, I’m okay. I needed time. I’ll explain everything soon.” Relief washed over me, but it was quickly followed by a fresh wave of questions.
A few weeks later, Daniel finally came home. He looked gaunt and tired, his eyes holding a sadness I had never seen before. He sat me down in the living room, his hands trembling as he began to speak.
“Mom,” he started, his voice thick with emotion, “the letter… it was from Sarah. It told me the truth about Emily.”
My heart pounded. “What truth?”
Daniel took a deep breath. “Emily… she wasn’t who I thought she was. Sarah found out… she found out that Emily had been leading a double life. She was already married, Mom. To someone else. The wedding to me was… a sham.”
I gasped, the revelation hitting me like a physical blow. Emily? My sweet, seemingly innocent Emily? How could this be?
Daniel explained that Sarah had stumbled upon the truth a few weeks before the wedding. She had seen Emily with another man, a man she introduced as her husband. Sarah, initially confused, had done some digging and uncovered the shocking reality. Emily had been married for over a year, and her impending wedding to Daniel was nothing more than an elaborate deception.
The reason for Emily’s deceit remained unclear. Perhaps it was for financial gain, or maybe she was simply living a fantasy, caught in a web of her own making. Whatever the motive, the truth was devastating.
Daniel had fled the wedding not because he didn’t love Emily, but because the foundation of their entire relationship had crumbled beneath him. The letter had saved him from a lifetime of lies and heartbreak.
As for Sarah, her wide smile at the wedding now made chilling sense. She hadn’t been malicious; she had believed she was doing the right thing, protecting her best friend from a terrible mistake and saving Daniel from a devastating betrayal. Her initial terror when I confronted her was likely due to the fear of revealing Emily’s secret and the potential fallout.
The aftermath was complex and painful. Emily eventually confessed the truth, her carefully constructed facade shattering into a million pieces. The reasons behind her actions were a tangled mess of insecurity and a desperate attempt to find happiness, however misguided. Her other husband, a man she had married for practical reasons, was equally shocked and heartbroken.
Daniel, though deeply wounded, eventually began to heal. The pain of betrayal was immense, but the truth, however brutal, had set him free. He reconnected with Sarah, thanking her for her courage and loyalty.
The wedding venue remained empty, the flowers wilted, and the cake grew stale. It was a stark reminder of a day that was supposed to be filled with love and joy but had instead become a symbol of deceit and shattered dreams.
Life moved on, as it always does. Daniel, though scarred, eventually found love again, this time with someone honest and genuine. Emily, after facing the consequences of her actions, embarked on a long journey of self-reflection and healing.
And I, the mother who had been so overjoyed at the prospect of her son’s happiness, learned a harsh lesson that day. Sometimes, the most loving thing you can do is to whisper a difficult truth, even if it ruins a perfectly planned wedding. For in the wreckage of broken promises, a chance for a more authentic and lasting happiness can sometimes be found.”MY SON WAS GOING TO MARRY THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE, BUT THE SECRET LETTER RUINED THEIR WEDDING.
