Top Nude Scenes 1978


Let's have a look at the top nude scenes from 1978 -  from the films covered on VZ1.  There were a few films of note not included on this list such as Susan Sarandon in Pretty Baby, Ursula Andress in Mountain of the Cannibal God, Joan Collins in The Stud, and Mary Louise Weller in Animal House.  Otherwise, we have a pretty stacked list. Enjoy - and check out the other lists here


(#137) MARLENE FRANÇA - THE WELL ENDOWED, THE MAN FROM ITU (1978)


(#136) BEATRIZ ROSSAT - CARNE APALEADA (1978)


(#135) HELENE CHAUVIN - THE HIGHSCHOOL GIRL REPEATING CLASS (1978)



(#134) JACQUELINE LAURENT - NATHALIE: ESCAPE FROM HELL (1978)

We love Laurent, but we're spoiled by her the nude scenes from her other films

(#129) ALDINE MULLER - THE WELL ENDOWED, THE MAN FROM ITU (1978)

Aldine Muller is one of the greats; but both her entries on this list from 1978 are nowhere near the heights she reaches in other years.

(#128) BAMBI WOODS - DEBBIE DOES DALLAS (1978)

It's a porno but we've got to include Bambi Woods showing up in her cowboy outfit and getting naked on the weight bench.


(#127) NADIUSKA - SOFT HONEY, VERY SOFT (1978)

I found this hilarious how this guy just nonchalantly tweaks Nadiuska's boobs while he reads

(#126) GWEN ARMENT - MARDI GRAS MASSACRE (1978)

Arment isn't exactly a supermodel, and this scene isn't exactly what you'd call erotic.  But you just don't see it coming from her - and at the end of the film, here it is. 


(#125) JOSELE ROMÁN - IT'S A SIN... BUT I LIKE IT (1978)

Why is Josele the only one naked in the hallway? It's a long story.

(#124) MIRIAM NASCIMENTO - BELOVED LOVER (1978)



(#123) KATE LYRA - THE PRISONER OF SEX (1978)

Who'd have thought that cute and peppy Lyra could be treated in such a way - but here it is.

(#115) BETTY VERGES - SUMMER NIGHT FEVER (1978)



(#114) SHIRLEY STECK - SEDUCED BY THE DEMON (1978)

A demon possessed guy imagines Shirley is sitting butt naked; demons will do that to you.


(#113) VIOLETA CELA - SOFT HONEY, VERY SOFT (1978)



(#112) ELY GALLEANI - ITALIAN OMELETTE (1978)






(#110) IDY TRIPODI - FAIRY TALES (1978)

(#103) DIRCE FUNARI - ESCAPE FROM WOMEN'S PRISON (1978)



(#102) BARBARA REY - CARNE APALEADA (1978)

May not seem like much, but a really long dramatic scene in the buff.


(#101) ANGELA AAMES - FAIRY TALES (1978)

Aames plays a very sexy Little Bo Peep; but Snow White and Sleeping Beauty haver her beat (as you'll see later in the list).


(#100) ELAINE WELLS - EXPENSIVE TASTES (1978)

A great moment in incidental nudity.  Wells just casually talks with her landlady with her boobs out.


(#99) MARCIEE DRAKE - THE TOOLBOX MURDERS (1978)    

Drake is murdered by the toolbox killer shortly after this moment.  And speaking of soon-to-be-murdered characters...


(#98) SHERRY BUCHANAN - LAST HOUSE ON THE BEACH (1978)



(#97) ALISHA FONTAINE - FRENCH QUARTER (1978)

Fontaine is stripped and put on the altar for a voodoo sacrifice


(#96) JUDITH FRITSCH - GREETINGS FROM LEDERHOSE 5 (1978)

That lakewater doesn't seem particularly fit for skinny dipping, but I won't say anything if you won't.


(#95) FRANCA GONELLA - ITALIAN OMELETTE (1978)



(#94) CÉLENE GALLONE - THE JEWEL OF LOVE (1978)

Gallone describes her encounter with a succubus where she woke up naked in a cave.


(#93) MÜGE GÜLER - DEATH CIRCLE (1978)



(#92) ANNE GAYBIS - FAIRY TALES (1978)

Gaybis plays the Snow White character who actually does a song and dance in the nude.


(#91) AGATA LYS - TRAUMA (1978)



(#90) LEMAN AVCI - ÇAPKINLAR KIRALI (1978)




The blonde actress is unknown; but we don't need names to know this was an incredible nude scene.





(#87) DOMINIQUE SAINT CLAIRE - ADVENTURES OF THE SEX DIPLOMAT (1978)

Dominique pretends to be a mannequin at a boutique


(#86) GENEVIEVE GABRIEL - THE GANJA EXPRESS (1978)



(#85) ZERRIN EGELILER - DEATH CIRCLE (1978)



(#84) JULIA BOND - WHAT'S UP NURSE! (1978)



(#83) DANIELA GIORDANO - INQUISITION (1978)




Goddamn these Lederhosen films glutting the market with an over surplus of incredible nudity.

(#81) OLIVIA PASCAL - SUMMER NIGHT FEVER (1978)

Pascal starts out as a geeky sister they don't want to bring along on the road trip.  But she quickly lets her hair hang down and gets naked. She's naked a lot in this film; hard to pin down one scene that stands out.


(#80) AMEL AMOR - THE LAST PARTY (1978)



(#79) ISABEL PISANO - TRAUMA (1978)



(#78) LAURA MISCH OWENS - FRENCH QUARTER (1978)



(#77) ANA MARIA NASCIMENTO E SILVA - THE WELL ENDOWED, THE MAN FROM ITU (1978)



(#77) LINA ROMAY - THAT CERTAIN TASTE (1978)

Romay flashes a guy playing tennis from behind the chain-link fence; that'll grab his attention

(#76) MIREIA ROS - JILL (1978)


(#77) ESPERANZA ROY - CARNE APALEADA (1978) 

A rather shocking scene as Esperanza Roy delivers a long dramatic dialog with Barbara Rey, before falling back in tears butt naked in the final moments of the film.

(#76) NANCY DANCER - MARDI GRAS MASSACRE (1978)



(#75) SHIRLEY BROGER - SUNSET COVE (1978)

One of the more grating and obnoxious characters in the history of cinema, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy it when she takes her top off.



Janssen plays dual roles as hot and homely sisters; which means we see a lot of the Scandinavian sex goddess in this film. This should rank higher, but it was hard to single one out.


(#73) SYLVIA ENGELMANN - ADVENTURES OF THE SEX DIPLOMAT (1978)



(#72) IRENE FOSTER - TRAUMA (1978)

After some nude aerobics Irene Foster is attacked by the serial killer


(#71) MARIA PIA CONTE - NAKED SICILIAN WIFE (1978)

This scene is a total marathon. Maria bathes, calls for another girl, waits, they talk, she dries off - all while delivering dialog.


(#70) ZERRIN EGELILER - CRAZY WOMAN (1978)


(#69) YVONNE HARLOW - THE SISTER OF URSULA (1978)


(#68) SUZY MANDEL - ADVENTURES OF A PLUMBER'S MATE (1978)



(#67) URSULA WHITE - I PORNO ZOMBIE (1978)

Ursula White becomes a sex zombie and do what sex zombies do best.

(#65) BARBARA MAGNOLFI - THE SISTER OF URSULA (1978)



(#64) BEA FIEDLER - POPCORN UND HIMBEEREIS (1978)







Weiner is frozen solid as an experimental health spa treatment.  She has to be chiseled out of the ice; needs to be seen to be believed.

(#61) ANTINISKA NEMOUR - THE SISTER OF URSULA (1978)

Nemour delivers some fantastic before (and after) her murder in this film.


(#60) ALDINE MULLER - THE ARTISAN OF WOMEN (1978)

Muller is an all-time VZ1 favorite, but this nude scene only lasts a few seconds.


(#59) BEVERLY ROSS - SLIPPING INTO DARKNESS (1978)

It's a macabre scene, but incredibly compelling and memorable. You don't expect this main character to die in the bath halfway through the film; and we damn sure don't expect Ross to get naked in this film. This is when method acting really works in our favor.  






I love Janssen and I love this film, but she delivers much better nudity in her other work.



No disrespect to Fenech for her entries so high up on this list.  Let's talk again when we look at '76-'77 and it'll be a different story.


(#55) STEFANIA D'AMARIO - THE SISTER OF URSULA (1978)




Camila plays an escaped mental patient.  This scene is both hilarious and wildly sexy.  I adore the fact that it is replicated exactly again in the next film...


(#53) CAMILA PERISSÊ - LADIES PHOTOGRAPHER (1978)



(#52) BRIGITTE STEIN - THE ANGEL AND THE BEASTS (1978)


(#51) RENATE KASCHÉ - GREETINGS FROM LEDERHOSEN 4 (1978)

Kasche gives a train passenger a closer look.  


(#50) AZUCENA HERNANDEZ - STELA'S EROTIC VACATION (1978)



(#49) PATRICIA GRANADA - THE COMING OF SIN (1978)






(#47) SONIA BLANCA - THOSE WHO START AT FIFTEEN (1978)

Blanca has at least five nude scenes and is basically naked throughout the film


(#46) FELICITY DEVONSHIRE - WHAT'S UP NURSE! (1978)

Not a great scene in and of itself. However, it's the only full frontal nudity in the film, and Devonshire is a Brit favorite.



Kerova is being held hostage and is looked in on by her "guard".


(#44) ANDREA CAMARGO - IN THE VIOLENCE OF SEX (1978)

It's a rape scene, but Camargo is a fox, and the scene where she makes a final phone call completely nude is something to behold.

(#43) LINNEA QUIGLEY - AUDITIONS (1978)

Quigley in another early role - pretending to audition for a part in a horror movie.



Fee Heger gives a young man quite a view after falling from a ladder

(#41) CAROLYNE ARGYLE - ROSIE DIXON - NIGHT NURSE (1978)

Argyle gets fully naked and rides a hospital patient in traction 

(#40) OLIVIA PASCAL - POPCORN UND HIMBEEREIS (1978)

Would rank higher but perhaps just a bit too much suds to our liking


(#39) SILVIA AGUILAR - THE SHADOW OF A MEMORY (1978)

Silvia dies in this scene and provides lots to look at both dead and alive.  A rather abnormal and unexpected role for Silvia Aguilar.


(#38) URSULA BUCHFELLNER - POPCORN UND HIMBEEREIS (1978)

Perhaps more than any other actress - if Buchfellner was in a movie you knew there's be full frontal nudity aplenty.

(#37) NINA WEST - ADVENTURES OF A PLUMBER'S MATE (1978)

West has her clothes ripped off by the motorcycle. See Video Zeta List - Wardrobe Malfunctions for more of this sort of thing.



Aguirre is a goddess full stop.  So even this rather tame shower scene is a treasure


(#35) PATRICIA ADRIANI - THE ANGEL AND THE BEASTS (1978)

Adriani is naked for literally the last quarter of the film. She seeks shelter in an abandoned house and is basically nude for the duration. Bravo.


(#34) CRISTINA GALBÓ - THE LAST PARTY (1978)

Galbó is perhaps to legit and classy to give us much in the way of nudity; but we'll take whatever she's offering. 

(#33) PAOLA MAIOLINI - ITALIAN OMELETTE (1978)

The sisters decide to give nerdy Maiolini a makeover, which starts by stripping off her clothes.  You gotta love the "nerd makeover" in film.



Lys has ointment rubbed after a hot iron is applied to her breast; Lys also provides full frontal - which may be one of the only examples.


(#30) ISABEL MESTRES - PLAYING DADS (1978)

Mestres plays a surrogate mother who tries to get the prospective father in the mood.  I'd say she does a good job.


(#29) CARMEN VILLANI - IT'S A SIN... BUT I LIKE IT (1978)

Villani on a swing with no panties is quite a sight to behold


(#28) CHRISTINE CROGUENNEC - THE JEWEL OF LOVE (1978)

Croguennec plays the hottest gas station attendant of all time


(#27) SANDRA ALBERTI - TRAUMA (1978)



Zanchi is stripped and groped by supposed aliens


(#25) CARME ELIAS - L'ORGIA (1978)

Carme Elias goes upstairs to get undressed to join the orgy.  However, when she returns everyone has already put their clothes back on and she's embarrassed. 


(#24) USCHI ZECH - LOVE-HOTEL IN TIROL (1978)

Uschi Zech may win the award for percentage of time nude for a single film '78.

(#23) LINNEA QUIGLEY - FAIRY TALES (1978)

Linnea in a very early role plays the Sleeping Beauty character delivering this full frontal at the end of the film.

(#22) SANDRA ALBERTI - SATAN'S BLOOD (1978)

Alberti gets butt naked to perform a satanic ritual; then again as she's murdered and placed in the bathtub.  For me, this is the most effective satanic movie of all time.

(#21) SUZY MANDEL - THE PLAYBIRDS (1978)

Mandel went on to actually make a difference in the world in a different career.  But she definitely made a difference in my world with this scene.  But perhaps not as much as the next lady from the same film...

(#21) MARY MILLINGTON - THE PLAYBIRDS (1978)

The late great Mary Millington.  Let's all bow our heads in reverence.



The scene where Ingmar Bergman's daughter is nude in bed is great; however her brandishing a weapon bottomless is nudity at its finest.


(#19) MEHTAP SEBA - DEATH CIRCLE (1978)

Seba somehow dies from one swipe of a straight razor to the back.  She later turns up nude again as her body is disposed of.



Nadiuska shows her boobs in four separate scenes, each more gratuitous than the last


(#17) LEE ANN BARNES - THE GIRLS NEXT DOOR (1978)

Barnes plays the slutty girl after the "good girl's" boyfriend.  She has a couple memorable moments wearing only platform shoes and hotpants.


(#16) GLORIA GUIDA - TO BE TWENTY (1978)

A traumatic movie, but this scene perhaps makes up for the soul crushing ending



Gemser gets attended to by the nurse (who she later knocks out with ether and escapes).

(#14) EDWIGE FENECH - THE SOLDIER WITH GREAT MANEUVERS (1978)

Fenech doesn't know she's being watched through a 2-way mirror.

(#13) JULIET GRAHAM - THE GANJA EXPRESS (1978)

What makes this so special is the sheer gratuitousness of it all. Juliet has to flag down a bi-plane by waving a flag on the rooftop of the boat.... nude.... for some reason


Morata played Shirley Temple in the Shirley Temple Story (1976) - but I'll remember her best as the maid who shows her boobs.



Baxa is a straightlaced teacher made to strip and groped by supposed aliens

(#10) CHRISTIANA BORGHI - NAKED SICILIAN WIFE (1978)

A waiter gets under the table and gets quite a view of Christiana Borghi - I don't think anyone was expecting no panties.

(#9) ANNAMARIA CLEMENTI - OPERATION ORIENT (1978)

Clementi is naked a lot in this film; like she may have more nude scenes and a higher percentage of nudity in a single film than anyone on this list.  Respect.


(#8) EDWIGE PIERRE - SUMMER NIGHT FEVER (1978)

Kudos to Edwige who delivers this long exhausting scene running around with lots of physical requirements. 

(#7) RAQUEL EVANS - THE LAST SIN OF THE BOURGEOISIE (1978)

An incredible sex scene; made even better knowing the director of this film was Evans' brother!


Janssen puts on a damn clinic in this film. Whether she's rocking the bridal outfit, getting drugged and stripping, enjoying an orgy, getting carried around a castle nude, or just being raped in a coffin, Janssen is killing it in this movie.

(#5) DIANNE HULL - THE FIFTH FLOOR (1978)

What makes this such a great scene is that it plays out like a PG rated TV movie - but then we get full frontal from Hull - including a clearly inadvertent grundle shot as she's carried from the tub.

(#4) PATRIZIA GORI - NATHALIE: ESCAPE FROM HELL (1978)

Gori is a goddamn goddess, so this sex scene reaches all kind of levels of epic.  The subsequent torture scene isn't too shabby either.

(#3) KELLY NICHOLS - THE TOOLBOX MURDERS (1978)

One of the most memorable nude scenes ever - at least for me.  It begins with a calm scene in the bath, then the intruder chases her around the room.  She's shot with a nail gun; her body is then examined by the detectives at the crime scene and morgue.


(#2) MARIA CONCHITA ALONSO - PREDATORS OF THE SAVANNAH (1978)

Gorgeous Maria Conchita Alonso is fully naked a lot in this film; definitely was a surprise when I came across this one.

(#1) OLIVIA PASCAL - TRIANGLE OF VENUS (1978)

I'm not sure how you can not rank this as number one.  Olivia Pascal is among the greats - and here she is splayed out for all to see in Triangle of Venus.  1978 was definitely a great year for Pascal, and this moment on a dirty sex-dungeon mattress is top shelf.

  1. Great list! A couple of corrections. You list two different gals as Idy Tripodi (#110 & #117). #110 is indeed Idy, but #117 is the legendary Hanna Viek. Also, #104 is the goddess Maria Domingues. You have her as Telis Stallone, who's a guy.

    1. Thanks! I really need to have these proofread! Anyway - they are fixed. I got the Domingues right in the actual review, but I guess I just copy-pasted wrong. Thanks for the good catch!
