Umm. Hmm. Okay i have probably witnessed the weirdest film in the history of all weird, this film has a huge massively huge cult following i mean people would and still do go to the cinema to see this film dressed up as the characters from the film, now first time i saw this i was in college at lunch and a friend of mine got it up on his iPad, what followed was the weirdest moment in my life ever and I’m not exaggerating watch the film the. Get back to me.
So the rocky horror picture show… Oh boy, where to begin, see i can’t even start off with what it’s about its that weird, so a couple who have just got engaged drive to tell the husband’s fellow scientist, as they drive they break down and have to go find somewhere, they find a very cliched haunted house in the rain with lightning striking, well as they arrive at the house a very cliched creepy butler called Riff raff (don’t question the name) opens the door now this is where it gets weird and I mean really really really really weird, brace yourselfs people we are venturing down the rabbit hole into sheer craziness.
So Riff Raff (again don’t question the name) tells the couple that the master is having a party and that he is going to show off his creation he has created, so as he is telling this he breaks out in to the infamous time warp song, oh boy okay even the singing/dancing is weird but my foot was tapping along with the music (I had to do the time warp dance at my year 6 leavers assembly… In front of the whole school…. And my teachers…. And my parents) so where was we, oh yeah the time warp umm, I can’t even review this film it’s just so weird but I will try too anyway, so after the time warp we see (brace yourselfs) we see Tim Curry as Dr Frank N Furter (don’t question the name) so dr Frank n Furter is a transvestite (I don’t even know, it’s best not to question it) and then he sings sweet transvestite, after that we see his lab and his creation, suddenly out of the fucking blue meatloaf appears…. Yep you heard me, meatloaf, just appears and sings this rock number and he is killed by Dr Frank n Furter.
So we see Frank n Furter’s (we’ll just call him Dave as my iPad does not recognise the name Frank n Furter) umm so we see dave’s creation, wait for it you’ll like this, a human man called Rocky (again don’t question it) he is like a baby just been born so he doesn’t understand what’s going on, well anyway as the couple go to bed Tim curry visits the woman and proceeds to have sex with her pretending to be her husband (I’m going to tell you again don’t question it) after he has sex with her he visits her husband… Because why not, well Tim curry has sex with the husband, then things get even weirder when a fellow scientist turns up. Around the dinner table we see the body of meatloaf as one of dave’s groupies runs out of the room.
Cut to a few hours later and Tim curry is getting ready for the floor show (don’t know what that is but as I said don’t question it) so in his lab he medusafies (I don’t know just go with it) the couple along with the scientist and thus the floor show begins. So, well, now this is where things get even weirder and I mean friggin weird Tim curry does a big song and dance suddenly riff raff comes along and shoots Dave and then kills rocky and then it ends with the couple and the scientist all in full drag regalia singing about superheroes (just go with it) and the the film ends there and I mean ends like that.
Well what can I say about this movie hmm, well I enjoyed it I mean it’s got catchy songs in it (time warp is just infectiously catchy) but it’s just so weird and I mean weird, I mean I couldn’t even tell you what the plot is, it’s that weird, but nonetheless I enjoyed it even if it was campy and really weird, I would give this film a 7/10 mainly because of its weirdness but the songs are very catchy indeed if you can get passed the weirdness then it’s a good watch, I would recommend this film definatly, I mean I enjoyed it but just don’t question it as much as I did when I watched it. So let me know what you thought of this film did you find it weird the first time you watched it let me know, until next time catch you later.
