Played: Della Leiter in Licence To Kill. Horror Filmography: Lords Of The Deep (1989), Stepfather III (1992), Unseen Evil 2 (2004), The Devils Rejects (2005), Thr3e (2006), Trailer Park Of Terror (2008). Best known for the sitcom Threes Company, Priscilla Barnes was barely in Licence To Kill, her death at the hands of a slimy drug baron giving Bond a reason to go off on a private vendetta. She fared little better in her horror roles, particularly in The Devils Rejects, where her character was humiliated in front of her family before being murdered. Typically cast in mom roles, her later films often see her as the head of a backwoods clan, most hilariously in Thr3e, a film so corny and hackneyed it almost gives hillbillies a bad name.
