She also enjoyed having the same makeup artist who worked on the miniseries The Thorn Birds and the series Charlie's Angela. The costumes earned an OK from the actress who plays an international model on daytime television. "I know they supposedly spend more money on prime time but I've been in the wardrobe room for Dynasty and they have nothing on us," Lucci said with a little bit of Erica coming out in her voice. - NEW YORK (UPI) Daytime supershrew Susan Lucci enjoyed everything about making the movie Invitation to Hell for ABC, except having to be separated from her family for the first time in her life. Lucci's prime-tim- e motion picture debut, in which she plays a devil who tries to seduce a marprime-tim- e ried Midwesterner (Robert Urich) who has followed the American dream to California's Silicone Valley, airs at 7 p.m. Thursday on KTVX, channel 4. actress is Although the hopelessly fickle in her role as the ambitious, calculating Erica on ABC's All My Children, off screen she is a devoted wife, mother and daughter who enjoys quiet suburban living. Lucci has lived her entire life in New York suburbs. She went to college in Tarry-towN.Y., north of the city, and she met her Austrian husband of 13 years, Helmut Huber, while she was working as a hostess at the restaurant in the Garden City Hotel on Long Island. The couple now lives in Garden City, not far from Lucci's parents, with their two small children. Then along came the irresistible invitation to make Invitation and Lucci had to move out to Los Angeles for three whole weeks. "I had never been alone to that n, point," Lucci said. "I really didn't even know if I could take care of myself."

Lucci said she felt the moviemaking experience was good for her, even though she missed her family tremendously for two weeks. By week No. 3, Huber and the two children had joined her. "They spent two weeks in Aus-t- ri nd then met me," she said. "V took them to Disneyland. Had a lot of fun." All in all, Lucci found out she could survive alone and she thought it was probably good for her children to be separated from her. "But you also find out very quickly what's important to you," she said.
