It is presented in its original, unedited form, and many of its contents may be very offensive to some of our readers. It is absolutely NSFW, children, or anyone easily offended. PLEASE NOTE: the following contains very strong language, highly suggestive themes, and very insensitive dialogue. After all, there’s a lot to take in here! That’s why we at Nerd Nation have done some research and scoured our own memory banks for an official ROCKY HORROR HOW-TO GUIDE!! Hell, for the previous teenage version of yours truly ( way back sometime last century) it was even something of a rite of passage.īut with an experience this grandiose, intricate, and especially fully interactive, it can very quickly and easily get very confusing. It’s always a really fun, entertaining, and most of all memorable experience, that (in my humble opinion) everyone should enjoy at least once or twice in their lives. Think of it as one part dinner theater, one part drag show, one part roast, and of course, all parts insanity! First-timers are referred to as “virgins” and are often given small parts in the experience, heavily teased by everyone, and most importantly, given a big “V” courtesy of a marker and/or lipstick on their foreheads. But it’s not just the film itself… far from it, even! The Rocky Horror Picture Show is all about the fans… and more specifically, the audience participation!įor literally as long as this writer can remember, The RHPS has screened in theaters every single weekend all over America ( and likely far beyond our borders, too) – with a rabid, furiously loyal fan base that has become as legendary and infamous as ( and perhaps even more-so than) the highly-controversial film itself.ĭuring each showing of “Rocky” ( as it’s commonly known to pretty much everyone) a group of loyal fans will do a Shadowcast ( as in, literally dress up in the costumes and act out the film as it’s being shown) while the rest of the audience will engage in pre-planned shenanigans and hurl hilariously insulting lines at them/the movie/each other. The bizarre, over-the-top, and very unapologetic sci-fi/horror musical/gender-bending rock opera is a true, undeniable legend of cinema one that cemented the legacies of such stars as Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, and even Meat Loaf.
For decades now, The Rocky Horror Picture Show has been a “Cult Classic” in every sense of the word.
