- I see you shiver with antici... The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a 1975 musical film by Richard O'Brien. It's most famous for still being played in theatres all over the world once a week, and for having a fanbase that dresses up, throws stuff at the screen, re-enacts the scenes and generally indulges in Audience Participation. The film is based on The Musical/Stageshow The Rocky Horror Show, also by Richard O'Brien (who played Riff Raff both in its original staging and this film). There is now a character sheet for this film.

- I see you shiver with antici... The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a 1975 musical film by Richard O'Brien. It's most famous for still being played in theatres all over the world once a week, and for having a fanbase that dresses up, throws stuff at the screen, re-enacts the scenes and generally indulges in Audience Participation. The film is based on The Musical/Stageshow The Rocky Horror Show, also by Richard O'Brien (who played Riff Raff both in its original staging and this film). The story: Brad and Janet are two lovely, naive virgins from Denton, Texas, who get engaged and drive off to tell Dr. Scott , their former teacher. However, on the way there, they get a flat tire and find themselves outside a spooky castle house ("It's probably a hunting lodge for rich weirdos" )... and that's where things get really, really, reeaaaaaaaaalllly weird. They meet the servants, Riff Raff and Magenta, and groupie Columbia, who live with Dr. Frank-N-Furter... a "Sweet" Transvestite Mad Scientist, to be specific (from Transsexual, Transylvania). After being stripped down to their underwear, they are invited up to Frank-N-Furter's lab where he unveils his creation -- the Brainless Beauty Rocky Horror. They are interrupted by biker/ex-delivery boy Eddie , Columbia's lover, who Frank-N-Furter had kept in the deep-freeze. Brad and Janet are then shown to separate rooms, and Frank-N-Furter deceives the two into sleeping with him via both Paper-Thin Disguise and the fact they're both horny enough. Both victims are horrified afterwards, and Janet wanders the castle till she finds Rocky (cowering from Riff Raff, who's been tormenting him). Realizing she's been cheated on by Brad, she takes an interest in the monster... At this point, Dr. Scott appears looking for his nephew Eddie, and Janet and Rocky are found together. Frank-N-Furter invites them all to dinner... There is a (spiritual) sequel, Shock Treatment (1981), focusing on the bizarre turns Brad and Janet's lives take upon their return to Denton after their adventure in Rocky Horror, but it was not as popularly received as its predecessor and is thus both obscure and hard to find. The fact that the makers weren't happy with how it turned out, due to many compromises made during its production, such as character recastings and a drastically cut budget, doesn't help. (It's also harder to stage as an Audience Participation show due to a bigger cast of characters.) Although it was just recently released on DVD. In 2008, a remake was planned by MTV. Richard O'Brien was not involved and not happy. That attempt was cancelled, but IMDb reports that another remake attempt will go into development in 2012. There is now a character sheet for this film.
