Combinación del mundo de terror y musicales parece imposible. Se trata de una adaptación de una obra de teatro, que tenía su éxito en Inglaterra. Rápidamente se convertió en una película de culto. Una pareja enamorada se encuentra con su coche roto y buscando un teléfono encuentran el castillo de Dr. Frank-N-Furter que les invita para quedarse por la noche. Desde ahí surgen situaciones graciosas y muchos conflictos filosóficos. Que significa la fidelidad, es posible enamorarse de alguien aunque no sea perfecto y que es justo?

What more can I say about the presumed musical legend, than that its humor, as well as the individual songs, were just not my cup of tea. And I respect the British humor as well as I respect a similar sounding music. Nevertheless, since I’ve heard endless stories of how people are dedicated to this movie, I will refrain from a more in-depth review. It will be for the better.

Even in an ordinary screening, without high heels, rattles and rubber gloves, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is endlessly entertaining and, during the existential songs, it is a touching defence of eccentricity and a tribute to the sci-fi and horror B-movies of Val Lewton and William Castle. Thanks to the tastelessness, affectedness and consciousness of its own decadence, every gesture, every prop and every deviant costume screams “camp”. The film dares us to despise it and dance with it. Both surprisingly happen at the same time, inviting us to experience it again and again, just like repeatedly listening to the soundtrack (I’ve had “Touch-a, touch-a, touch-a, touch me” stuck in my head for a few weeks). 90%

OK, another film whose cult status I can’t understand. The ear-shattering, awful 1970s music does highlight the depravity on screen, but it also made the film almost unwatchable. The Rocky Horror Picture Show is perverted in the exact awfully perverted fashion that I can’t understand, let alone like. On top of that, Tim Curry is almost unpleasantly convincing in the role of a sweet transvestite from the transsexual planet Transylvania… Overall, it was one of the least imitable film experiences I’ve ever had, and I’m giving it two stars for that, but my tastes are elsewhere.

It is perhaps bizarre but original. Unfortunately, it's also a somewhat uncoordinated affair, which after a rousing opening starts to rehash the stereotypical system of musicals without any further innovation or invention. Sharman earns points with promising hints, but he could have pushed a little harder. That’s quite unfortunate because this madness stands on its own two feet only thanks to the divine Tim Curry, whose tranny creation is unparalleled on screen. All in all, it’s as entertaining as De Palma's (sadly underrated) Phantom of the Paradise.
