The Rocky Horror Picture Show & 1970s movie recommendations

I recommend The Rocky Horror Picture show because it's definitely strange, one-of-a-kind and you honestly can't help but sing a long. This movie allows audience participation that gives you an amazing cinematic experience, especially at the mid-night showings. Be sure to bring your rice, toast, toilet paper, playing cards, super-soaker and costume. Rating: 7.5/10


The movie begins with a newly engaged couple, Brad & Janet, finding themselves in an isolated area where their car has broken down. Once they go looking for help, they soon end up at the castle of Doctor Frank-N-Furter, a transvestite alien from the planet of Transsexual in the galaxy of Transylvania. What Brad & Janet don't know is that it isn't just an ordinary night, Doctor Frank-N-Furter has invited other visitors from his planet to witness his new creation, Rocky Horror. This is the beginning of their very memorable strange journey full of creation, love, hate and the inappropriate.

  4. This has always been one of those movies that I've wanted to see but never got around to seeing. Another movie that's supposed to be similar to "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" is "The Room". Apparently at late night screenings they throw spoons at the screen. Never been, but sounds cool.
