Response:
I really
enjoyed this film despite the weirdness of it. It is full of energetic songs
which will get stuck in your head for a day! The characters are very memorable
which is down to a small yet great cast. As a cult film I didn’t quite know what
to expect, I had heard the songs but never watched the film and am glad to say
it was a good watch. After looking up about the film I read that people go and
watch the show dressed up as the characters….seems like fun…. But they through
things on the stage which does confuse me but I suppose that’s what the fans
like to do. I would definitely recommend this film but be prepared to be
singing the time warp over in your head again and again!
It's really strange, but it's one of my favourite films. It's got a lot of good songs and a great cast. Although I will say the scene when they're in the pool towards the end is a bit creepy.
ReplyDeleteGood Evening Evil Enteties. I am here to slay the film The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
ReplyDeleteThis film is full of monsters. From "Transexual Transvestite from Translyvania," Tim Curry to the main monster of this film Rocky Horror - a version of the Frankenstien legend. This film is one of my favourites, and i always great fun to watch. The characters are all played with great vigour and enthusiasm making it highly enjoyable to watch. The catchy songs will stay with you all day long and the Time Warp has become a long certified classic to due to this film. I would reccommend this for anybody looking for an easy to watch film that will also offer up a good laugh. Filmsing Out.
One of the THE wierdest films ever made surely, but after watching it fully for the first time you can see why its a cult classic. Brilliantly over the top at some parts and Tim Curry does a remarable job playing a transvestite, i really dont know how they all manage to keep a straight face throughout it. I would advise you to stick with it and i think you'll be surprised. It has great musical numbers and a cameo from meatloaf. Overall a laugh and one really not to be taken seriously.
