Great in the theater. Lackluster at home.

This is not a movie so much as it is an experience. The movie itself is not great. But if you get the chance to see it in a theater with a live cast performing at the same time the movie is playing and when audience participation is encouraged, this is hella fun. I used to spend most weekend nights in high school and college at the midnight showing of Rocky Horror at the local arthouse theater dressed in a bustier, getting panties, garter belt, thigh-high stockings, and high heels with all the other weirdos enjoying the hell out of the movie, live cast, and audience. I highly recommend the help of alcohol and/or chemical indulgences to enhance the experience. But maybe not an entire bottle of Sambuca as I did one nonmemorable evening.

The songs in the movie are fun to sing. Dancing to the Time Warp, as well. If you're lucky, the theater will also play music videos from Tim Curry's Fearless album Paradise Garage and I Do the Rock and Meatloaf's Bat out of Hell and Paradise by the Dashboard Light before the movie.

This is one of Susan Sarandon's first films. She and Barry Bostwick play the innocent couple Brad and (Dammit) Janet. And Tim Curry is a God in this movie.

I have such great memories of my time at as Rocky Horror fan back in the day. I hope many generations continue to enjoy this movie in the theater. It's a blast!

Roxanne (13 KP) rated Taken by the Minotaur (Taken by the Minotaur #1) in Books

Nov 14, 2018

Not the best erotica I've ever read but not the worst either. I found it to have a bit of a plot which was good and I do like mythology. Some parts I found quite hot but others...not so much. I think it was a bit wasted on me really being from Cornwall...it's a farmer's paradise down here and there are many cows...many, many cows. I must admit I have never found any of them remotely sexy in any way...until they became a steak (medium-rare please) sooo I guess intercourse with a Minotaur just doesn't really do it for me. The only parts I enjoyed was the back story and when I was able to forget that this being was a human/bull creature...with a monster penis.

Rolling Stone's 343rd greatest album of all time

I'm still in shock at how early in the top 500 this appears. I would have thought it would be at least top 200, if not top 50. The title track is one of the best known rock songs ever, and yet so many people won't have heard the full album version - in my opinion the section removed for the single is the best part of the song.
Added to this the superb Paradise by the Dashboard Light, Two out of Three Ain't Bad (I was told off by my wife for suggesting this referred to our three kids) and You Took The Words Right Out My Mouth, as well as the sombre heartfelt Heaven Can Wait.
Just an utterly superb album.
