“The Rocky Horror Picture Show”
1975
No, technically, it’s not really a great piece of work, if you try to pick it apart. In fact, it’s based on a stage show that, on Broadway in the 1970s, seemed like one of the worst things I’d ever witnessed. But somewhere on the road to celluloid, “Rocky” developed more confidence and appeal (not to mention more people in makeup chanting along with every word). With its zippy melodies, affectionate spoofery and magnetic performance by Tim Curry as the sweet transvestite from outer space, this romp became an interactive love fest that helped kids to grow up and live their dreams. And it’s definitely Meat Loaf’s best film.
