Cristina Raines and Hilarie Thompson in Hex

Cristina Raines and Hilarie Thompson in Hex


A very nice person sent over this image of Cristina Raines and Hilarie Thompson from the movie Hex. The movie was filmed in 1971 but not seen until 1973. Since then it has become a cult classic, not seen by too many people and misunderstood by many who have seen it. As the film debut of Cristina Raines (billed here as Tina Herazo), I tracked down a copy a long time ago and I quite enjoyed the movie. It is certainly not as bad as some reviewers have made it out to be!

It is also perhaps worth noting that Cristina Raines and Hilarie Thompson appeared together again in the premiere episode of the TV drama Doctor's Hospital in 1975.



Another amazing photo of Cristina Raines



This image was sent over by a very nice contributor and it is yet another excellent photo of Cristina Raines. She's so consistently photogenic, it never ceases to amaze!

Best photo of Cristina Raines ever?



Thanks again to a very kind contributor who sent this amazing photo! This such a stunning image of Cristina Raines. Is it the best photo of her ever? I can't say for sure...but it certainly is a top contender for such a title!


Cristina Raines on T.J. Hooker



In 1983, Cristina Raines made a guest appearance on T.J. Hooker. In case you were wondering...yes, she had to kiss the legendary William Shatner!


Here's how it happened:








As you can see, even after she answers an important phone call from a desperate gambler, he is still trying to make a move!


Cristina Raines on Riptide



In 1985, Cristina Raines guest starred in a third season episode of Riptide titled 'Thirty-Six Hours 'til Dawn'. It was just another great TV role in a long line of fine guest appearances she would do throughout the 1980s.




In the opening shot of the Riptide episode, Cristina Raines is shown on the cover of a fictional magazine called Visage. You might recognize the image as it is one of the most popular photographs of Cristina Raines. That's Riptide cast member Thom Bray holding the magazine.

Since I haven't had much fresh material to post, I'm going to start posting images of Cristina Raines on Flamingo Road. As you may know, Cristina Raines played Lane Ballou from 1980 to 1982 on the NBC nighttime soap opera Flamingo Road. The first picture I'm going to post is from 'The Arrangement', the first episode of season two which originally aired on November 3, 1981.
