When Pat Benatar began attracting notice in the late ’70s, she was rocking a look that was heavy on Spandex and eye-liner, resulting in a kind of feline appeal. She’d stolen the idea from the campy 1953 science-fiction movie Cat-Women Of The Moon. It turns out Benatar is a fan of science-fiction, and not just the bad stuff. “[Cat-Women Of The Moon] this absolute cult, crazy, horrible movie,” she told Reuters. “It’s the most awful thing. but I love sci-fi, and I love really junky sci-fi. I have to tell you, I saw Avatar seven times. I really love it.”
