What can I say about Rocky Horror?
First, let me say this. If you haven't seen it, go and get it. Right now. Then go and get some really good drugs, or a stiff drink (or 10). Consume. Then sit back, put it on, and prepare to have your eyes and quite possibly your sanity blown clean out the back of your skull.
The story: A young couple (Barry Bostwick and Susan Sarandon) through some flimsy premise happen to be out in the middle of nowhere in a storm when their car breaks down. They walk back to a castle they just passed, in which lives Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry), a sweet transvestite from transsexual Transylvania. It just happens to be the night that the doctor is unveiling his newest creation, Rocky Horror.
Sound twisted? It is, but don't worry. The story really doesn't have much to do with it anyway.
It's the music. This is all about the music. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this movie contains some of the most memorable songs you will ever see & hear. I wish I had been around when this had come out, I imagine this would have warped more than a couple of minds. I still listen to the songs all the time, they are just fantastic.
The good: Everything. I cannot think of a single flaw in this movie.
The Bad: Like I said, no flaws.
The Ugly: Only the characters that were meant to be.
Just... watch it. Tim Curry is without a doubt THE MAN!
