Elke Sommer really chewed some scenery in a 1973 Exorcist ripoff but is best-known in the United States for her television work. She may even still have her '81 Rabbit, which we hope still has an AM/FM stereo cassette sound system to allow her to "boogie down on the boulevard with the best of them."
