Biography

There are actually multiple versions of the mini-series Dune (2000), where actress Teresza Semierova gives up the goods—although it really depends on which version you’re watching. Based on the book by Frank Herbert, the sci-fi series starred William Hurt and was a collaboration between the United States, Canada, Germany, and Italy. The original version was 280 minutes, and was shown on television in every country other than the US, whose wicked censors deemed it unsuitable for primetime—thanks in part to Teresza’s bare breasts. Playing the character Farrah, she shows off her ripe and ravishing rack first in a gauzy gown, then sans anything at all, while she bathes series star Matt Keeslar. She’s one of three beauties in the scene, which is bathed in a red light but doesn’t hinder visibility, but you tell which one is Teresza by the fact that she’s got a bald scalp and jewels embedded into her forehead. The version of Dune that aired in America had 15 minutes cut from it, but still managed to take home two Primetime Emmy awards, one for Outstanding Cinematography, and one for Outstanding Special Visual Effects. You can, of course, catch the naked scene right here on Skin Central, and also on the DVD version, which will most likely include an additional six minutes from the director’s cut. Unfortunately, Teresza’s skinematic turn in Dune has been her only acting credit—most likely, she was a local girl picked up in one of the series’ two filming location, Italy and the Czech Republic. Thank you, local girls!
