| Amy Smart was known as a tomboy as a youngster and was the only girl on her Little League baseball team. At 13, she did some modeling and moved into acting after getting a role in MTV's 1994 Rock The Vote campaign in which she played a strung-out supermodel. TV-movies followed, and as well as her feature debut in Stephen Kay's The Last Time I Committed Suicide, screened at 1997's Sundance Film Festival. After being briefly seen in Paul Verhoeven's big-budget sci-fi actioner Starship Troopers she had an impressive turn in the vastly different, quirkily independent How to Make the Cruelest Month. In it, she played Dot, the graceful golden girl who seduces the one-time boyfriend of her sister, the troubled protagonist Bell. The by-the-numbers horror film Campfire Tales followed in 1998, along with the topically chilling but clumsily executed internet stalker thriller Dee Snider's StrangeLand, written, produced and starring the titular Twisted Sister frontman as a deranged torturer who meets his victims in web chatrooms.
