The Rocky Horror Picture Show

1975 Jim Sharman 99 MIN

Through elaborate dance and rock music, the mad scientist unveils his latest creation: a perfect, muscular man.

HORROR CENTRALITY
62 /100

The Rocky Horror Picture Show relies on horror imagery and a mad-scientist premise, but its core identity is a campy musical/comedy with satire and audience-participation culture. Horror is major but not the primary driver.
