Yeoman Janice Rand beamed into Tombstone, 9 December 2004
2/10
Author: mmtoucan from Chicago, IL

This low budget, turquoise-hued clinker was the end of the line for Universal's scream queen, Evelyn Ankers and she's morose and unappealing as Calamity. She's Mercedes McCambridge's weak sister in clean jeans and a 50s coif.

So I'm sitting through this thing and the 2nd female lead, the bitch from the East, finally arrives. It's this startled blonde with a funny sing-songy delivery. Who's that? She's terrible! She must be this Lamb guy's girlfriend.

I check her out on IMDb and - yo - that was Yoeman Janice Rand from the original Star Trek. Boy, did Grace Lee Whitney eventually score some attention from that gig. Her bio says she regularly sang at those famous Star Trek conventions.

The presence of Ellison makes me wonder if the decrepit, exterior town set used is the same one constructed for the Ellison/Russell Hayden/Raymond Hatton series a few years before.
