WHERE do they dig these films up? Tonight's features are both straight from the Z-movie box of films that should be labelled ''Hazardous to your mental health''.
The more entertaining of the two - in the ''oh, come on'' sense - is Nosferatu in Venice (World 9.30pm, Original Running Time 96 mins), a real horror of a sequel to Werner Herzog's chilling 1979 mood-piece, Nosferatu the Vampyre.
Augusto Caminito takes the blame for directing the sequel and Klaus Kinski again stars as the good Count Dracula. But, whereas his portrayal in the original gained sympathy for the weary and isolated creature, the second-time around he's reduced to wandering Venice's canals at twilight.
Again the count is lovelorn, and this time he's looking for a virgin to help him shake off his immortal coil. Christopher Plummer's also involved, and looks suitably shame-faced about it.
THE desperate alternative, Steel and Lace (Pearl 9.30pm, ORT 92 mins) is also bad, but not quite bad enough to be good. Clare Wren stars as Gaily Morton, a young woman who commits suicide when the man who raped her (Michael Cerveris) is acquitted.
This prompts her mad scientist brother (Bruce Davison) to build an android in his sister's image and program it to take revenge on the rapist and his friends.
Sounds even sillier than Pearl's umbrella title for this batch of films, ''Last Action Monster''. Bandwagon jumping, or what? STEVEN Spielberg's ''56 million years in the making'' adventure Jurassic Park took more than US$100 million at the US box officein its first nine days. The E! Entertainment TV Network takes an hour-long look at this monster hit in E! Jurassic Park Special (STAR Plus 7pm).
