Tropes associated with her works:
- Chronically Killed Actor: In the first 20 years of her career or so, if Quigley's in the movie at all, her character probably dies. She also usually takes her shirt off.
- Creator Backlash: 1978's Auditions, in which she plays a 15-year-old who auditions for a porn flick. Given the premise, she doesn't mind if you consider 1981's Graduation Day as her first big role.
