This low-budget freak show/cult classic/cultural institution concerns the misadventures of
Brad Majors
(
Barry Bostwick
) and
Janet Weiss
(
Susan Sarandon
) inside a strange mansion that they come across on a rainy night. After the wholesome pair profess their love through an opening song, their car breaks down in the woods, and they seek refuge in a towering castle nearby. Greeting them at the door is a ghoulish butler named
Riff Raff
(
Richard O'Brien
), who introduces them to a bacchanalian collection of partygoers dressed in outfits from some sort of interplanetary thrift shop. The host of this gathering is a transvestite clad in lingerie,
Dr. Frank N. Furter
(
Tim Curry
), a mad scientist who claims to be from another planet. With assistants
Columbia
(
Nell Campbell
) and
Magenta
(
Patricia Quinn
) looking on,
Frank
unveils his latest creation -- a figure wrapped in gauze and submerged in a tank full of liquid. With the addition of colored dyes and some assistance from the weather,
Frank
brings to life a blonde young beefcake wearing nothing but skimpy shorts, who launches into song in his first minute of life. Just when
Brad
and
Janet
think things couldn't get any stranger, a biker (
Meat Loaf
) bursts onto the scene to reclaim
Columbia
, his ex-girlfriend. When
Frank
kills the biker, it's clear that
Brad
and
Janet
will be guests for the night, and that they may be next on
Frank
's list -- whether for murder or carnal delights is uncertain. And just what is that mystery meat they're eating for dinner, anyway? In addition to playing
Riff Raff
,
O'Brien
wrote the catchy songs, with
John Barry
and
Richard Hartley
composing the score. ~ Derek Armstrong, All Movie Guide
