This painting probably from 1882 by the British artist John Collier shows Queen Clytemnestra after she had murdered her husband Agamemnon in the bathroom. It is said that she stabbed him but Collier painted her as a butcher who slaughtered the animal which Agamemnon was – he killed Clytemnestra’s first husband and sacrificed her daughter.

Bad Girl Exploitation
Bad Girl was a great movie directed by Frank Borzage about the daily life in Depression time USA. Nevertheless there is no "bad girl" in the whole film. It was only a cheap trick to sell more tickets.

The Mord-Sith
Despite the fact that in the childish and pathetic television series Legend of the Seeker there is not much worth mentioning, the Mord-Sith are an interesting exception. The story of that women warriors isn’t that interesting but their design and outfit is great. It’s an extreme cool mixture of SM and steampunk. I don’t wonder about their great success on Youtube!
And in my humble opinion Jessica Marais as Denna is by far the best of all Mord Sith!
