Holli Would
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Holli Would is a female character (played by Kim Basinger and modelled by Jenine Jennings) from the 1992 Ralph Bakshi film Cool World.
Holli is a sexy blonde humanoid doodle woman from the Cool World who wants to have intercourse with a "real" human so she can become "real" and feel real things and enter the "Real World", but sexual relationships between humans (or Noids) and doodles (or toons) is illegal in Cool World and Detective Frank Harris keeps a sharp eye on Holli.
Holli brings cartoonist and comic book writer/artist Jack Deebs (who has visions of the Cool World and Holli) into the Cool World and despite Harris's best attempts, eventually Holli and Deebs have sex and Holli turns into a "real" person. Holli and Deebs heads to Deebs's home dimension/universe, but the barrier between the Cool and "Real" Worlds has been thrown out of balance and Deebs and Holli repeatedly turn into clown-like doodles. Holli, killing Harris and leaving Deebs behind in the process, manages to find the Golden Spike of Power, which turns her back into a doodle and releases many monsterous doodles into the "Real" World. Deebs turns into a super-powered humanoid doodle (nicknamed "Super Jack") and puts the Golden Spike back into its place, but Deebs is stuck, maybe forever in the Cool World, but he has plans to marry Holli.
In the original script for the movie written by Ralph Bakshi, Holli is called Debbie Dallas (in reference to the classic pornographic film Debbie Does Dallas) and when she and Deebs have sex, they have a son who is a strange mixture of live-action and animated bodyparts. The child hates himself for what he is and what he isn't and goes to the "Real" World in order to try to murder his irresponsible father.
In the comic book adaptation of the film by DC Comics, Holli Wood was presumably killed when she touched the Spike of Power and Jack Deebs was trapped in the fourth dimension (a desert landscape).
