The Rocky Horror Picture Show [M]

Brad and Janet are two ordinary, clean-cut kids. But that changes when their car breaks down and they are forced to spend the night in a creepy old castle. As the night draws on, it turns into an erotic nightmare for the two lovebirds and really drives them insane. 

Alright people, be warned: if you do watch this film, do NOT try and make sense of it… because you will go insane! A truly twisted and wonderfully demented classic, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a particularly unique film that you must sit in front of and just let it wash over you. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand what’s going on… that’s really the point. Just watch and enjoy because (in this film’s case) ignorance is bliss. 

After getting engaged, Brad and Janet decide to go and see their friend and ex-tutor Dr Scott. Just a couple of clean-cut kids on road trip that turns bad when they break down in the middle of nowhere. After battling their way through a storm, they come across a castle and ring the bell in the hopes that they might be able to use a telephone to call for some help. But their moral and wholesome worlds are shattered as soon as they enter that castle. Their cross-dressing host invites them to spend the night, which soon turns into an erotic nightmare that’s only going to get stranger and stranger. 

Wonderfully weird and fantastically freaky, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a twisted homage to horror, science fiction, B movies, and rock music. Filmed on a low budget in the true style of B movies, the comedy of the film comes across in the dated effects and the overacted acting. You have to keep in mind that everything in this film is clever because it is deliberate. 
Tim Curry stars as Frank n Furter, the cross-dressing mad scientist. You may look at him today and not see much, but back in the day of Rocky Horror, Tim Curry was effing HOT!!! Incredibly sensual, he used everything at his disposal: his head, legs, arms, mouth, eyebrows, and even his groin. I’ve got no shame in saying that his performance was almost orgasmic. NOT TO MENTION HIS VOICE! OH!!!... wow it’s hot in here… 
Starring Tim Curry (a mad scientist), Susan Sarandon (a heroine), Barry Bostwick (a hero), Richard O’Brien (a handyman), Patricia Quinn (a domestic), Little Nell (a groupie), Jonathan Adams (a rival scientist), Peter Hinwood (a creation), Meatloaf (an ex delivery boy), and Charles Gray (an expert), The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a cult classic that everyone needs to watch at least once in their lives. It’s filled with action, suspense, romance, sex, bizarre love triangles, science fiction, horror, and heaps of songs. For those who don’t know, this is the film that gave birth to the Time Warp… 

It’s just a jump to the left. And then a step to the right. With your hands on your hips. You bring your knees in tight. But it’s the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane. Let’s do the time warp again. Let’s do the time warp again!... 

Oh come on, you can’t have expected me not to do that!!! But seriously, you have  to watch the film at least once!!!
