Mark Vader Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 You do all know it was a spoof of science fiction B movies, right? In the opening theme (the lips) they make reference to : The Day the Earth Stood Still Flash Gordon The Invisible ManKing Kong It Came from Outer Space Doctor X Forbidden Planet Tarantula The Day of the Triffids Night of the Demon When Worlds Collide I like this movie for about the first 30-45 minutes, and then it is very poor! You really had to see it in a theater, with lip synching fans, slices of toast in the air, 'rain' inside, and all the key "prompts" for audience response. Brad - "***hole" What is really amazing is all the actors / singers who continued on with career: Tim Curry Susan Sarandon Barry Bostwick Meatloaf I agree with this comment. Overall I think Rocky Horror is mildly amusing, but the 2nd half of the movie becomes tired. I dated a woman who adored this movie. I took her to a midnight showing and she came dressed as "Columbia". Her costume was remarkable, she got a lot of comments on it, even from the actors in the theatre. I love the "Science-Fiction/Double Feature" song the most, because of all the movies that are referenced in it. And as a big fan of "Dark City", I love the fact that Richard O'Brien is in it.

CowgirlsFan Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I watched this at an early Halloween party. It is unique no doubt. There are pluses and minues but the music is off the charts. We even got up and danced! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
