I became obsessed with that movie with my circle of friends in school. I was the token Eddie of the group :-)And nothing thrills me more than watching the DVD with the audience participation on and going with it. I just wish people would stop freaking out over it just because Frank is a transvestite and is a bisexual prostitute and everyone at some point in the movie does a same-sex thing at some point (except Eddie, Riff Raff, and Dr Scott). Just sit back, watch the movie, do the Time Warp (when the time comes), and just go with it! It's not supposed to make sense and the plot isn't supposed to be great. IT'S A MUSICAL, AND A DAMN GOOD ONE SO LIGHTEN UP YOU SQUARES :-) Apologies for the caps.

No, Eddie was involved at one point, although it wasn't shown in the movie, with Frank N. Furter. Riff Raff had a rather intimate relationship with his sister *cough*incest*cough.* You're right, Dr. Scott was the cleanest person there!!!

A few weeks ago a statue of Riff-Raff was unveiled in the city I live in (because Richard O'Brien lived here for a few years and was apparently inspired by watching late night double features at a now-demolished movie theatre where the statue now is). Of course there were the nay-sayers because "we don't want a statue of a transvestite in our fair city" - evidently actually watching the film was out of the question. I myself was a Rocky Horror virgin until the night before but I had to go because it was one of the few exciting things that ever happen here. What a night! The man himself was there heading a small show set up on scaffolding and thousands of people were doing the Time Warp in the middle of the main street. It was all class - most impressive - and I really enjoyed the film for itself. It was a bit silly but taken for what it was extremely amusing.

Uh..I've never seen it no matter how many times I've rented it out or seen it on T.V. Something always seems to arise.
Me: Well I'll just put on The Rocky Horror Picture Show....*vampires attack Earth stealing RHPS*
Apparently there's a cinema in Munich, Germany, where the movie has been screened every week since 1975. There are special "RHPS-Kits" available to enable celebrations during the show. They contain: a biscuit (for the toast), rice, a whistle, a candle (for "There's a light") and a sheet of paper with instructions for the time warp.
So I have no idea in any case..except that Dr. Hibbert likes it.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Moulin Rouge are two movies that I still can't get through my head why people like them so much.
Both are just absolutely flamboyantly cheesy, and just painful to watch.
However, I have to say that a lot of the songs from 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' are great, while all the re-makes featured on 'Moulin Rouge' are shit. Including 'The Show Must Go On'.
God, what the hell did they do to such a masterpiece of a song??!!
