The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)

continued...

... dancing groupie Columbia (Nell Campbell) and a horde of un-conventional conventionalists. It is the eve of Dr. Frankenfurter's biggest experiment...the elusive spark of human life. Well, actually he's just makin' himself a man...with blonde hair and a tan. After Rocky (Peter Hinwood) is erected he immediately rebels. As if hearing all the commotion Dr. Frank's old experiment crashes out of deep freeze on his motorcycle in the form of a chilled rock n' roller Eddie (Meatloaf). With all of the characters assembled we're treated to sexy evening on par with a french farce where people jump in and out of each others beds. Then it gets really wacky when we find out that Riff, Magenta, and Dr. F are all aliens. Heeps of good "family" fun.

Did I forget to mention the songs? "The Time Warp" tends to be everyone's favorite, but, there are so many singable tunes that it's really hard to pick one...even though the subject matter might be something you shouldn't sing at work. "Rocky Horror" is awesome and stays fresh with every viewing. If you know of anyone that hasn't seen it, pass the torch. Tell them about the midnight showings and goings on. It's a beautiful piece of film that should never be forgotten.
