After Janet accepts Brad's marriage proposal, the happy couple drive away from Denton, Ohio, only to get lost in the rain. They stumble upon the castle of Dr. Frank-N-Furter, a transvestite who is holding the annual convention of visitors from the planet Transsexual. Frank-N-Furter unveils his creation, a young man named Rocky Horror, who fears the doctor and rejects his sexual advances. When Frank-N-Furter announces that he is returning to the galaxy Transylvania, Riff Raff the butler and Magenta the maid declare that they have plans of their own. |
This is one of the most famous gay icon movies of all time. |

An absolute must to see. Best to be seen in a theater with lots of Rocky Horror addicts who dress up for the occassion and participate in the movie with loud outburst of the lyrics. |
This whole movie is full of quotes, I was tempted to put the whole lyrics here, but that would be to much. So I chose some quotes so you can cheer with the others when you go and see this extravaganza! Frank: A mental mind fuck can be nice. The Criminologist: I would like if I may to take you on a strange journey. Frank: [singing] Whatever happened to Fay Wray / That delicate satin-draped frame / As it clung to her thigh / How I started to cry / 'Cause I wanted to be dressed just the same. Dr. Frank N. Furter: Give yourself over to absolute pleasure. Swim the warm waters of sins of the flesh - erotic nightmares beyond any measure, and sensual daydreams to treasure forever. Can't you just see it? Don't dream it, be it. The Criminologist: And crawling om this planet's face, some insects called the human race. Lost in time. And lost in space... and meaning. The Criminologist: [reading from dictionary] "Emotion: Agitation or disturbance of mind; vehement or excited mental state." It is also a powerful and irrational monster. And from what Magenta and Columbia eagerly viewed on their television monitor, there seemed little doubt that Janet was, indeed... its *slave*. Frank: [singing] I'm just a sweet transvestite, from Transsexual Transylvania.
Janet: What have you done to Brad!
Riff Raff: Hello. Riff Raff: [singing] Frank-n-Furter it's all over. Your mission is a failure, your lifestyle's too extreme. I'm your new commander. You are now my prisoner. We return to Transylvania. Prepare the transit beam. Brad: [singing] Dammit, Janet, I love you. Janet: [singing] Touch-a touch-a touch-a touch me / I wanna be dirty! Chill me, thrill me, fulfill me / Creature of the night! |
[in song] Doctor Frank-N-Furter: So come up to the lab and see what's on the slab. I see you shiver in antici... pation. Brad: Say, do any of you know the Madison? Riff-Raff: The master is not yet married, nor do I think he ever will be. Frank-N-Furter: I'm afraid you've touched on a rather tender subject there, Dr. Scott. Another slice anyone?
Frank: Enchanté. Well! How nice. And what charming underclothes you both have. But here. Put these on.They'll make you feel less... vulnerable. It's not often we receive visitors here, let alone offer them... hospitality. Riff-Raff: [singing] It's astounding, time is fleeting, madness takes its toll. Doctor Frank-N-Furter: How do you do? I see you've met my faithful handyman. Doctor Frank-N-Furter: Don't dream it, be it. Doctor Frank-N-Furter: Give yourself over to absolute pleasure. Doctor Frank-N-Furter: Because I've seen blue skies, through the tears in my eyes. And I realize, I'm going home. Doctor Frank-N-Furter: It's not easy having a good time! Even smiling makes my face ache! Dr. Frank-N-Furter: In just seven days, I can make you a man. Dig it if you can. Riff Raff: Say good-bye to all of this. And say hello... to oblivion. Doctor Frank-N-Furter: So come up to the lab and see what's on the slab. I see you shiver with antici... pation. Dr. Everett V. Scott: This sonic transducer, it is I suppose some kind of audio - vibratry - physio - molecular transport device?
Magenta: I ask for nothing! Eddie: [singing] Whatever happened to Saturday night? Eddie: [singing] Hot patootie, bless my soul! I really love that rock n' roll! |
