Sylvia Lopez

I think Gianna Maria Canale's best villainess-performance was in "The Sword and the Cross", and that it's perhaps the best bad girl role in all of Peplumdom, though it's hard to say since there are so many to chose from.

I agree with Europe that Gianna deserves first place.

She is also my favorite Peplum actress.

Gianna has a long track record as a Patrician Roman lady who is cruel to her female slaves and others.

Without a doubt Sylvia Lopez in Hercules Unchained. She defines the term "temptress."
