It's the end of the seventies and a time that disco came to the big screen. From Grease to Saturday Night Fever, it was time to unleash Nocturna. Starting very funny with Dracula (john Carradine)being interrupted from the grave. Nocturna being fed up of being undead comes into the world of the living. From transylvania she went to NY with her 'human' friend. Some scene's are way too long, and the horror comedy becomes a dancemovie. Of course a happy end makes it more romantic. The trailer contains a Nocturna vampire bite but that's almost all you will see. There is a funny effect when the vampires changes into animated bats. A cheap effect but somehow it works. Having trouble selling this flick it was also the time of Emmmanuelle and Bilitis. So they filmed afterwards a bathroom scene including Nai Bonet in the old fashioned David Hamiltonway. Ridicilious scene. The small talks tell that it's due to rights for the soundtrack that it never was released. The acting except for Carradine is terrible, it was also Bonet's last movie. It was only released as a rental one and copies go for more than 100 euro's these days. Worth it? It's a one of his kind so the choice is yours.
