In the era of bodacious big hair, it takes a special kind of sensual seductress to trust she could make you bust with a bob. The sultry Susan Jennifer Sullivan spared the hairspray, knowing her dark eyes and top notch, tight body made her a cut above the rest even with a mom cut. Before she wound up her acting career as Muffy in two episodes of Charles in Charge, Boston's Susan Jennifer Sullivan had us begging for more please, while she was being hunted by Jason Voorhees in Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988). Unfortunately for us, while she would have been our number one pick, Sue Sully isn't one of the women who take their tops off in the slasher flick. But, while we don't get the classic shower scene we'd like from the scream queen who eventually takes an axe to the face, we do get to watch Susan sunbathe in a black bikini and tease her boyfriend in panties and a dress shirt. Susan moved on to play Lisa in Click: The Calendar Girl Killer (1990) before ending her career with a small role in the Jude Law and Ethan Hawke sci-fi drama Gattaca (1997). While rumors abounded in 2009 that she'd died in Massachusetts, it ends up Susan is still alive and living in California, and that despite being the same age and sharing a name, the Susan Jennifer Sullivan who passed away in The Bay State was not her. This makes it a bit awkward that the documentary Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday the 13th (2013) is dedicated to her memory. Instead, we choose to think it means in memory of the opportunity for nudity Susan Jennifer Sullivan let slip away.
