Ivana Novak in La terrificante notte del Demonio (1971)

Pretty face, big and expressive green eyes and a swollen hair to make her look a little taller, since her body, albeit proportionate, is tiny. The gorgeous Ivana Gibilisco, alias Ivana Novak (like Kim Novak), began at the cinema with the comedies of Franco and Ciccio in the Sixties, then went to the erotic-horror genre, with the cult movie La terrificante notte del Demonio by Jean Brismee and ended up acting in the vein of the "poliziotteschi". She often played only small but meaningful roles and she also spoke English. Retired completely from the entertainment world in the late seventies, today she works in a clothing store in Rome.

In La polizia è sconfitta (1977) she plays again the part of an undercover policewoman and has an exchange of slaps with Nello Pazzafini. This is probably her last known role.
