in Chit-Chat
A friend and I were chatting the other day about what our favorite movie of all time was. I said the "Rocky Horror Picture Show". She said that was her favorite movie as well. I absolutely LOVE this movie. I have seen it about 30 times and it never gets old. It's something about Tim Curry in lingerie. *Shivers*. I know how that sounds, but if you have seen this movie, you would understand where I am coming from. Anyway, back on track. I was wondering how many people out there have seen this movie, and who would you go dressed as to a showing in the theaters. I would go as "Magenta", just cuz I love her outfit at the end of the movie. :wink:

    I like it too. Do kids watch it anymore? Does it still has it's cult following or are we mid-30'ers the last of that era?

    The Rocky Horror Show is even better than going to the Rockery Horror Picture Show....seeing it live is awesome and getting to interact with the actors! I've seen the movie more times than I can count and the stage show 2x.

    Saw it when I was about 11 years old. Never mind Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon could wake anyone's sexuality. Dayum.............

    Back in my partying days, this was something my friends and I would do on a Friday night after we were half tight. Yep... we brought rice to throw during the wedding scene.

    Love it! Me and my boyfriend saw it in the theatre when the West End version was doing a UK tour before going to London, it was great! We wouldve dressed up but it was a last minute thing so we didn't have time to get the costumes together :(

    Seen it a bajillion times. I've been in 3 shadow casts (twice as Frank) and loved doing shows. I try to go to showings at least a couple times a year. I always go dressed as Frank. It's a great chance for me to let my inner exhibitionist out. I look smokin' hot in a corset and garters.

    I've gone as Columbia too. LOL

    I have a real problem.

    I turned my daughter onto it as well (she loves it, and she's 20).

    I honestly never truly grasped the full appeal. To me it's a fun, campy cult classic...but that's it. My closest friends are absolutely obsessed though!

    I've gone to midnight showings though, a lot, all back in the 1990s. I went as Columbia twice, but usually just casually dressed.

    College kids still watch it and it has a sort of cult-esque feel around halloween. They play it in the campus theatre and everyone dresses up and there are contests and such.

    I saw it once, and I just couldn't do all the...crazy. The movie itself wasn't that bad, but when people started throwing toast at the screen and toilet paper I just couldn't handle it.
