Rocky Horror or Complete Horror

The 1975 film Rocky Horror Picture Show was followed with outrage, anger and constrversity. It features a homosexual drag queen scientist, who muders people and feeds them to others, aswell as creating his own ‘perfect’ man. The allusion of the rocky horror is created through offensive songs and ourages dancing. In other words it’s genered as a musical but a confliced one at that. It highlights issues of open sexulaity and cheating patners and idavidualism.

Although the sixties brought us such famous classic movies like breakfast at tiffanies and sound of music. The seventies brought us the rocky horror picture show which changed peoples views on cinematography for ever. The aim was to challenge people’s perceptions on what’s normal. Having the characters Brad and Janet, find themselves encountered with a different sought of group of people to their normal society. Is giving the audience the relaisation that there are various types of individuals out in the world. And the acceptance that is followed. We see this when Brad says, “their probably foreigners with ways different form our own”

What makes rocky horror, rocky horror, is the provocative, costumes, set, language and music that’s is couched in dark and twisted humor. This was no issue for Tim Curry, who plays Dr Frank-N-Furter. It launched his very successful career as it showed future casting directors that 6 inch heels and face full of make-up wouldn’t stop him. Although the character of Frank-N-Futer’s morals are not one to be idolized. He does come with a certain life lesson that he expresses through the musical number, Sweet Transvestite. “Don't get strung out by the way that I look, don't judge a book by its cover”

The rocky horror picture show is a shocking cult
