This past Halloween night I smoked mad reefer and had a few shots right before I saw a midnight showing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I've never seen it before though I had heard of the major cult following. The movie itself blew my mind but there was also a live shadow cast and lots of audience participation. Seriously my new Halloween tradition, it was mint. What does everyone else think of RHPS? Favorite characters? Mine are definitely Columbia, Riff Raff, and Magenta. The opening song has kinda become my new "smoking song." It's called Science Fiction - Double Feature by Richard O'Brien, who also plays Riff Raff and is one of the writers. Sex, drugs, and rock and roll baby
It always surprises me just how many people have yet to see this cult classic. When I first met my girlfriend she'd never seen it and now she loves it almost as much as me. I've probably seen it five or six times and plan on seeing it many more times. Great music, perfect cast selection and interaction, and just an overall great movie. Great sober or stoned. Would LOVE to see a live showing of it sometime, too. As far as favorite characters... Magenta - she's just a hottie. & Dr. Frank N. Furter = win
