Big, big fan of the two vanity projects made by transcendently untalented starlet/belly-dancer Nai Bonet in 1979 and 1980, Nocturna and Hoodlums. Especially Nocturna, an achingly unfunny disco-era "comedy" about Dracula's granddaughter, in which the reason Bonet never achieved stardom becomes immediately apparent the minute she opens her mouth. ("Good ev-en-ing The-o-dore have-you-seen-my-grand-fa-ther.") The only good thing about it is the immortal Brother Theodore as Nocturna's lust-wracked Renfield, and that's because he improvised all his dialogue ("Am I never going to be her little yum-yum? Is she never going to invade my bed and abuse me carnally?!").
