Catriona MacColl (born 3 October 1954) is an English actress who has worked extensively in both film and television across Europe. ==Career== MacColl is recognised for her work on European television and film, mainly in Italy. She has gained somewhat of a cult status, by horror fans, because of her career as an Italian horror actress. MacColl began her career in the late 1970s, making her debut in the French romantic drama ''Le dernier amant romantique'', in which she received a small role. In 1979, she received her first leading role in ''Lady Oscar'', a historical drama directed by Jacques Demy based on the manga ''Rose of Versailles'' by Riyoko Ikeda. Following her part in the drama ''Le fils puni'', she appeared in the first of director Lucio Fulci's 'The Gates of Hell Trilogy', ''City of the Living Dead'', playing the role of Mary Woodhouse, with Christopher George. In her second role in the trilogy, ''The Beyond'', she plays the role of Liza Merril, a young woman who inherits an infamous hotel in Louisiana only to discover what lies beneath it is one of the seven doors to Hell. MacColl has stated that ''The Beyond'' is her most favourable of the trilogy, for the fact that she enjoyed working with the cast and crew, especially David Warbeck, and that it was filmed in New Orleans. The final of the trilogy was ''The House by the Cemetery'', for which she played Lucy Boyle, the mother and wife of a family who move into an old house, unaware that someone or something lives in the basement. MacColl did not originally plan to work in films with such a violent nature, as she had thought that they would not attract an audience, but following the growing fanbase of the trilogy over the years and that the films have received worldwide recognition, she is proud of the success of the trilogy. She has also appeared in such films as ''Hawk the Slayer'' (1980), ''Afraid of the Dark'' (1991), ''A Good Year'' (2006), and most recently, the 2011 anthology film ''The Theatre Bizarre''. She also starred in the Swiss short comedy film ''Employé du mois''.〔("Check Out Chimeres Creator Olivier Beguin's Short Employee of the Month Right Now!" ), dreadcentral.com; accessed 25 August 2015.〕 MacColl has had a successful career in television.
