Mae did not age well

I know it's been almost 30 years since this movie, but I was shocked to see how bad Jenny Wright looks nowadays. She's barely in her 50's but she looks like she's in her 90's :P

That's really unfortunate to see, because my heart melts for her every time I watch Near Dark. :(

At least though, she's not afraid to show her true looks for her age, unlike these old A-list "celebs" that go under the knife. (Madonna especially!)

I don't necessarily agree. I've met plenty of regular women who look great at 50. The OP is right. The actress looks like she could be past 70.

It looks as if she has some strange methods for living.

I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!

Yeah, I was shocked when I saw this video of her : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBItYgAeXUI (Skip 3 minutes in)

She's obviously got a bad drug habit and its aged her something awful.

Damn!! That's just sad. She was great in Near Dark and Young Guns 2.

It's funny because Jenette Goldstein looks OK and Bill Paxton looks really good

I’m afraid Paxton’s no longer looking so well.

That looks like the result of a serious drug and/or alcohol addiction. Shame.
