"Beni Cardoso, a sultry brunette known for her elegance in the realm of exploitation cinema, began her acting career towards the end of the 1960s. Her breakthrough came in the early 1970s with the provocative 'Vampyros Lesbos' (1971), where she appeared uncredited as a deceased woman. In stark contrast, Cardoso's next film, 'X312 – Flight to Hell' (1971), directed by cult figure Jesus Franco, saw her fully nude and chained alongside her lover during a plane hijacking scene.

Following this, Cardoso returned to playing an uncredited corpse in 'She Killed in Ecstasy' (1971), but she was very much alive in 'The Corpse Packs His Bags' (1972). No exploitation actress's resume would be complete without a women-in-prison film, and Beni appeared in 'Women’s Penitentiary IV' (1975). However, her roles began to taper off thereafter. Her final screen appearance was in the 1987 Spanish film 'Scalps, venganza india', where she played Texan Woman. Erotic4u is a notable admirer of Beni's performances."
