Estelita Rodríguez (parfois créditée Estelita) est une actrice cubaine, née le 2 juillet 1928 à Guanajay (Cuba), morte le 12 mars 1966 à Los Angeles — Quartier de Van Nuys (Californie).

Biography

Installée adolescente aux États-Unis, Estelita Rodriguez débute au cinéma dans trois films sortis en 1945. Le deuxième est le western Along the Navajo Trail de Frank McDonald, produit par Republic Pictures et ayant Roy Rogers pour vedette. Sous contrat avec ce studio jusqu'en 1952, elle retrouve l'acteur dans huit autres westerns, le dernier étant Pals of the Golden West de William Witney, sorti en 1951.

En tout, elle contribue à vingt-quatre films américains (plus un film brésilien, son premier sorti en 1945). Le plus connu (et avant-dernier) est sans doute Rio Bravo d'Howard Hawks (1959, avec John Wayne, Dean Martin et Angie Dickinson).

Son dernier film est Jesse James contre Frankenstein de William Beaudine (avec Jim Davis), sorti en avril 1966, peu après sa mort prématurée — de cause inconnue —.

À la télévision, Estelita Rodriguez apparaît dans cinq séries entre 1959 et 1966, dont Papa a raison (1960, un épisode) et Laredo (1965, un épisode).

During the late 1880s, Dr Frankenstein’s evil granddaughter Maria has moved to the American West with her brother Rudolph, in order to use the prairie lightning storms in her experiments on immigrant children snatched from a dying town. Maria is very much in charge, killing the children and replacing their brains with artificial ones, intending to revive them as her slaves. Rudolph however, is reluctant to help his sister, but is too afraid of her to do otherwise. After a number of failures (owing to Rudolph secretly poisoning the victims as soon as his sister revives them), they are finding it increasingly difficult to hide the trail of bodies. Down the road, Mañuel Lopez and his wife Nina decide to leave town with their daughter Juanita because of the frequent disappearances, the latest of which is that of their son.
