Rock Horror Picture Show

[vampire_kizz_bloody_lipz]

I begin this post with great movie great songs great actors. I was debating with a friend if this is really a horror film. Its got some elements of a horror film like the spooky house: Then guy in the table. BUt what do u think. Horror musical or not

I have been waiting for someone to post about the Rocky Horror. If I didn't have to go to school, I'd write a big giant post

Oh, I've been waiting for this a long time too and it's wonderful that it came about now! I guess you could consider it a bit of horror - since it obviously pays homage to the horror and sci fi of the 50s. (Oh, and this is perfect timing because I'm in a production of The Rocky Horror Show and we open next Friday - as odd as it sounds this male schmoe is playing the great groupie Columbia!!!)

When I first saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show, I thought it was an abominable lump of coal. I loathed every aspect of it. After a couple more viewings, I began to appreciate its oddball style, morbid sense of humor, and the excellent performance by the one, the only Tim Curry. The film is just too unique and distinctive to overlook.

Of course Rocky Horror is a Horror musical. It's an update of the Frankenstein story with lots of bisexuallity in there for fun. I also wanted to say hey to PhantonoftheParadise because that is one of my favorite all time films. The dvd is incredible looking!

SHIVER ME TIMBERS

hellllllooooo...

The Rocky Horror Picture SHow ruled my world for about a year. (until I dicovered Hedwig...) Its really the kind of movie you have to get together with a bunch of friends and have a blast watching.

On Halloween, the Local University put off Rocky Horror, but there wasn't a huge turn out. I was expecting scores of people dreesed up, throwing toast and rice at the screen, and Screaming "SLUT!!!" whenever Janet came on... lol, well I DID, and I had fun!

If I ver got the Chance to go to a full Blown Rocky horror party, I would die a happy schmoe. As long as I got to be Magenta

tim curry is god!

I never really liked musicals.......maybe it's all the rhyming and singing and dancing....or maybe I have no soul.

Definitely one of the worst songs ever written but nevertheless a fun movie. Tim Curry managed to save a lot of movies with his sheer presence and this is a movie that would be utter shit without him. I'd really dig to see that musical with him as Frank'n'Further.

I enjoyed this movie very much myself. I think it was kind of a grease film for the other type of people out there. The preps had grease the goths had Rocky Horror Picture Show. I think That all of the characters did there own part. Altho i did have a special spot Columbia(Nell Cambell). The actors were great witch included. Dr. Frank-N-Furter,Janet Weiss(Susan Surandon),Brad Majors(Barry Bostwick),Riff Raff(Richard O Brien),Eddie(Meatloaf),Rocky(Peter Hintwood), Columbia(Nell Cambell),Magenta(Patricia Quinn),Cr. Everett V. Scott(Jonathan Adams),Narrator(Charles Gray) and the many extrays added each had a great part. So me being me i loved the film and call it horror musical

[Mr Dark-Light]

I first saw it when I was 8 years old, it freaked me out so much that I refused to leave the safty and protection of the chair that I was snuggled up in.

[stevereno]

any movie that kills MEATLOAF is ok with me

I am SO with you on this one. Sorry but I am sick to death of Rocky and have been since 1980. This is what happends when every 5-10yrs it gets "rebirthed" by a new generation so I am a little tired of it. Like Tim Curry. Hate everything else.

Now I would have KILLEd to have seen Carrie , the musical!

[the_ultimate_evil]

did u all know richard O'brain wrote this over a weekend as a joke for a friend

[gorysnoopy]

and did u know that the guy who played rocky(frank's "creation")was so embarrassed by the film's gay undertones that he spent the rest of his life in seclusion?

[Friac]

Hahaha, that's funny, but I can understand it, that Rocky was sooooo stupid. Well, I like the movie a lot, it's a true-classic one, but I don't consider it as a horror-film (WHERE's the true horror??), it's just a cult-musical movie. Tim Curry is really great, so is Richard O'Brien

Maybe I don't either.

[tvmorbid]

The film was written by and starred Richard O Brian (Riff Raff) who was reported to be on magic mushrooms when he wrote it (explains a lot).
This is the best musical of all time. I usually hate musicals cuz they're so cutesy and sweet but this films ROCKS!!

[ICP RULZ]

This movie was pretty good.If you guys liked this movie,then you should check out Cannible:The Musical.

Peace

[Toxferatu]

i saw it, i want to see a screening of it so i can dress up as riff. that would rule. its always great to scream asshole and slut in public lol.

cannibal the musical rules, but i am a huge troma freak. i've yet to see a bad(ok thier all bad lol) troma movie.

[Fuadlives]

Sorry, but Peter Hinwood who played Rocky Horror didn't go into seclusion because of the gay overtones. He made another movie after this then when it didn't hit he went into his own business. Rocky Horror was a huge theatrical hit when the movie was filmed and the gay undertones were well known by everyone who was in the cast and crew. That's just a story created to spread homophobia.
