Trine Michelsen's first role as an actress was a small role in "Cyklen" which was an exercise film at the film school. Shortly after finishing school, she was given a role in the TV movie "En verden der blegner" from 1984 by Franz Ernst and Astrid Saalbach. She played a strong and politically engaged young woman.
After that, Trine Michelsen became a nude model as a Page 9 girl in "Ekstra Bladet" and in "Ugens Rapport".
The success as a nude model led to roles in two horror movies and two erotic movies in Italy. In 1986 she starred in "La Bonne" directed by Salvatore Samperi. Michelsen played a maid who arouses the residents of the house erotically. The film became a success in Italy, where the audience first became acquainted with "Katrine Michelsen", which she named on the poster.
The following year, Sergio Bergonzelli's "Tentazione" followed, which was far more erotic than its debut. The same year she starred opposite Donald Pleasence in the splatter movie "Spettri", which was directed by Marcello Avallone. In 1987, she starred in Lamberto Bava's late giallo effort "Le foto di Gioia".
In 1988, she starred in her only American film in a small role as a receptionist in Gordon Hessler's filming of Richard Adams novel "The Girl in the Rock". The roles in bad movies made her concentrate on the modeling career, but she returned as an actress in 1994 when she was given the role of a friendly whore in Vibeke Gad's unemployment drama "Eva". In 1998, many saw her talent for something other than being photographed undressed. She was one of the most disguised and straightforward collectivists in Lars von Trier's Dogme movie "Idiotene", and the following year she appeared in Søren Fauli's satirical short film "Antenneforeningen".
Trine Michelsen was the daughter of cultural journalist and writer Ole Michelsen and his wife Nina, who died in a car accident a few years after Trine's birth. She had no contact with her father for a number of years, but they were reconciled during the 1990s.
In April 2005, in the weekly magazine "Se og Hør", she stated that she was undergoing chemotherapy because she had been diagnosed with cancer of the shoulder blade from which it spread to the lymphatic system. By December 2005, the cancer had spread to most of the body and to the bones.
Trine Michelsen passed away on January 17, 2009.

Highly recommended if you like this sort of stuff.
Alphen was chosen as Penthouse Pet of the Month for June 1978 and again for August 1981. In 1982, she was the Pet of the Year. She married actor Ken Wahl two years later, in 1984.
She appeared in US movies and TV shows in the 1980s and early 1990s. Roger Ebert's review of the 1983 teen film Spring Break praised her appearance, and regretted that hers was not the film's main role. She also appeared in the 1987 comedy Amazon Women on the Moon as an interactive video girl, and also in 1987 she starred in the post-apocalyptic film Equalizer 2000. Corinne played a very sexy dominatrix in 1988 comedy Screwball Hotel. In 1991, Alphen made an appearance on the TV sitcom Night Court. But by then, her marriage to Wahl was falling apart; they divorced that year.
She was married to actor Ken Wahl from 1984 until their 1991 divorce, and was occasionally credited as Corinne Wahl during their marriage. Alphen and Wahl have one child together, a son named Raymond Wahl.
She studied at The Tarot School of New York, receiving two certifications in advanced tarot card reading.

This list does not include Lamberto Bava's Demons (1985) or Demons 2: The Nightmare Returns (1986). Where people are turned into demons, not zombies. Same thing goes for Joe D'Amato's Porno Holocaust (1981). The antagonist is a sex-crazed radioactive monster, not a zombie.
Technically, the infected people in Ubaldo Ragona's The Last Man on Earth (1964) and Umberto Lenzi's Nightmare City aka. City of the Walking Dead (1980) are mutated/superhuman vampires. but will remain on this list because they are generally reviewed as zombies.
Lucio Fulci's classic zombie movies: Zombie Flesh-Eaters (1979), City of the Living Dead (1980), The Beyond (1981) and The House by the Cemetery (1981) are excellent and the pinnacle of all the Italian zombie movies.
Another highlight in this list is Pupi Avati's Zeder aka. Revenge of the Dead (1983). This movie is quite different than the other movies on this list, but very enjoyable.
The series' main character, Geraldine Antonia "Jerri" Blank (played by Amy Sedaris), was a "junkie whore"/runaway returning to high school as a freshman at age 46 at the fictional Flatpoint High School (home of the Concrete Donkeys) in the town of Flatpoint.
Jerri ran away from home and became "a boozer, a user, and a loser" after dropping out of high school as a teenager, supporting her drug habits through prostitution, stripping, and larceny. She has been to prison several times.

A Mondo film (from the Italian word for world) is an exploitation documentary film, sometimes resembling a pseudo-documentary and usually depicting sensational topics, scenes, or situations. Common traits of mondo films include an emphasis on taboo subjects (such as death and sex), portrayals of foreign cultures (which have drawn accusations of ethnocentrism or racism), and staged sequences presented as genuine documentary footage. Over time, the films placed increasing emphasis on footage of the dead and dying (both real and fake). The term Shockumentary is also used to describe the genre.
Although earlier films such as European Nights (1959) and World By Night 1 & 2 (1961) may be considered examples of the genre, the origins of the mondo documentary are generally traced to the 1962 Italian film Mondo Cane (A Dog's World) by Paolo Cavara, Gualtiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi which was a commercial success.
Documentary films imitating Mondo Cane in the 1960s often included the term Mondo in their titles, even if they were in English; examples include Mondo Bizarro, Mondo Daytona, Mondo Mod, Mondo Infame and Mondo Hollywood. Films outside the genre followed suit: Mondo Trasho, Mondo Weirdo: A Trip to Paranoia Paradise, Mondo Keyhole and Mondo Brutale (a German release of Wes Craven's The Last House on the Left) title themselves Mondo, although none are Mondo documentaries. Later in the decade, this naming convention began to fall out of favour and fewer Mondo films identified themselves as such in their titles.

Reviews
Endless Bummer (2009)
Misleading title and no nudity? Could this be good? Yes, it can!
The title is very misleading and I do not see why they put National Lampoon in front of this movie and why did they call it surf party? When I started to watch this movie I did not have very high expectations about the content and thought this would be like another hyperactive T&A movie with a surf theme.
To my surprise, I found out this was not true. Instead this is a coming of age movie that tells a story about some friends on a journey to find a stolen surf board and why the surf board got stolen. Main characters are likable and the acting feels normal. The movie flows along in a nice pace and I never got bored or looked at the clock while watching this movie.
This movie reminds me of teen movies from the late 70's like The Van (1977) and Malibu Beach (1978). The movie also has some quirky characters appearing like Joan Jett and Lee Ving. The only thing missing here is Steve Oliver as Dugan, getting into a fight and yelling, "Nobody calls Dugan a turd!"
As a surf comedy and a National Lampoon movie, there is no nudity, but the girls show some skin in bikini's. I think the movie tries to rely on storytelling and characters rather than showing T&A to keep viewers interested though the movie.
A modern surf comedy that feels like a late 70's surf comedy? A pleasant surprise.
