Such a unique cinematic experience because it just grew organically. That cant' be duplicated or replicated.

My friend's high school age older brother and his buddies took us to see Rocky Horror Picture Show in 1980 when I was in 7th grade and I can honestly say the experience blew this then 13 year old girl's mind wide open. We saw it at a theater called The New Loft and it was featured at midnight every Saturday for years. Many people in the audience were dressed in costume, threw toilet paper ("Great Scott!") and sprayed water during the rainstorm scenes. I still fondly remember the experience 43 years later.

I was 15 when some older girls took me to see this at a midnight Georgetown (DC) theater. Fresh from living in Europe, I was highly annoyed with the audience for making it impossible to hear or watch the movie. I was also shocked (sheltered boy) at what I was watching. It took a couple of years, and yes more viewings, before I could actually appreciate the show. Today, I have the entire show on my play list and I frequently listen to it from start to finish. I hope that Tim get's better. It's Happy/Sad to watch him fight for his fans in his Zoom video's. Lot's of Respect for his strength and determination.

Few actors have ever singed a screen in a first starring role like Tim Curry. If Oscars actually had any credibility, Curry would have won handily. He is completely committed and iconic.

I am middle-aged, and today, this video, is my first exposure to Rocky Horror Picture Show. I lived in New York City all my life and I had never known what it even was; I thought it was like, Saturday Night Live or something. Thanks, YT algorithm... I was simply searching for Tim Curry singing Toxic Love in Fern Gully.

My first thought? Damn, I knew he had a charming villain-coded voice but I had no idea Tim Curry was this hot. I had to become middle-aged to be knowledgeable and self-secure enough to appreciate this to the fullest, with all of its psychosexual, artistic, and sociocultural connotations. Had I seen this when I was 20, before I got to know gay people and before I became wiser, it would have turned me away as more off-putting American grossness (I was an immigrant kid).

Gotta watch this again... Waitasec, those red lips on the cover are his! Are they?! When I was little I had always wondered which actress that came from.

The best cult and musical film of all time It has it all - Tim Curry not breaking the 4th wall but throwing water at the camera, the finest song in the film, a superb cast,lyrics and most of all it is as good today as it was back in the 1970s

Tim Curry definitely made that movie happen I love the fact that Riff Raff AKA Richard O'Brien was one of the writers producers creators and just kind of takes a back seat to a lot of it but he holds it together in the background what a genius show

I saw Rocky Horror at the "812 Theater" on Cannery Row, Monterey, CA in the late 70's about 6-7 times with my group (4 guys and 3-4 girls). At the 812, there were no proper seats, only big foamy pillows on an open floor. They'd show "Rocky Horror" on Saturday nights and, we got in the habit in the summer of '79. One night all the power went out on the Monterey Peninsula, including the theater. Given that many people had matches and candles on hand, the theater lit up dimly. Then people who were dressed up in character went foraward and continued where the movie left off. Never forgot that.

I was with a friend in the Navy visiting a seaside town when we came across an old theater hosting this movie. We thought the title interesting and decided to see. Little did I know what I was in for. It was a rowdy blast as fans stood and jumped out onto the aisles with outfits and danced. It was both a blast and shocking cuz I was only 20 and had never heard of nor let alone scene a man dressed as Tim in person in aisles as well. I'll never forget this moment.
