So I got my virginity taken last night, SE++. My Rock Horror virginity, that is.
Because what better fun is there than going to a stupidly cheap midnight showing of a film that has been in its first box office run for almost four decades, and then adding a hearty dose of live theatre on top of that?
And I got a lapdance from both the girl who played the lips in the opening song, and the guy who played Rocky.
The best part was that I was on film the entire time, as part of a documentary on the DC area Rocky Horror community. My role? Being a Rocky virgin caught on film. So yeah, fun.
By the way, Tim Curry is a sexy beast.

It was okay but very tiring and oh wow the idea of a community for this kind of thing
But I end up going to screenings of it at least once a year
I'm going to my first live production of the show tonight, 'cause I have a crush on a girl in the pit
it was in montreal
there were lots of naked people on stage
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
also there was plentiful use of a dildo as a prop so yeah
Not sure if I would get into the live performances too much, but it really was a great fun movie.
a burlesque company has been hired to perform during the show
it's going to be crazy
but I have never been to a screening and I've seen The Room at screenings like four times and I have a fucking blast every time there
so maybe that's the medium I need to view it in!
it definitely sounds like ... an experience
She keeps trying to get me to go whenever I visit but I don't really think it's for me.
yeah, Uni Mall. Small world. I heard a couple regulars were out for a few October shows.
you're tearing me apart, yaya
i don't really get it
The first time I saw it was in my basement with a few friends who had seen it before/were vaguely familiar with the whole fan culture
It was fucking awful
Then I ended up going to a screening kind of incidentally, and that was a lot more enjoyable
Note well, however, that there are multiple types of screenings
Some of them are better than others (I generally do not like anything done with a "shadow cast" as it becomes too masturbatory)
I'll never forget Dr. Frank-N-Furter's intro when he steps out of the elevator. It's burned into my memory banks forever.
does that mean it didn't count?
Yeah, me either. I love the audience participation but I don't need some other dudes pantomiming the actors.
I love the movie, though, and I'm not ashamed to say it.
"Sandra has a good solid anti-murderer vibe. My skin felt very secure and sufficiently attached to my body when I met her. Also my organs." HAIL SATAN
Wait, do you mean Uni Mall across from George Mason? I've been to a show there once, because one of the PA meetups had someone that did it. It was more surreal with people in front.
I usually just google search it or end up seeing a flyer at some bar or theatre or other. If you're in a big city or a college town I'm sure it'll be on somewhere.

I can enjoy people doing pantomime, actually
At the screenings I've been to, there have typically been people who have rehearsed the stuff on their own that hop on a stage to do some pantomime
The masturbatory nature of the shadow cast, for me at least, is all the people cast as extras/time warpers who just hang around the back and all shout the exact same call backs at exactly the same time
Or worse, at slightly delayed timing because they are too drunk to coordinate their lines properly
Yes. That was me and my friend, we were at dinner at Ri Ra the first night.
Exactly.
but yeah the audience's little calls got annoying
I'm actually seeing it again tonight and dragging some friends along. Saturday nights are apparently much more packed (October is the only month where this cast does Fridays) so the experience should be different.
How long is this going on?
No idea, honestly. Can't be for too long.
samesies
I miss Bemis so much
I went to a screening once, that was really the only one I felt the need to go to.
have no interest in doing it again
this movie is fucking garbage though, oh how i hate it
it's great fun the first time, but really, you can't watch the same movie over and over every week, no matter who you're watching it with, and i often rewatch or relisten to the same things over and over
and yes the community for it is fucking shithole shambles
the movie is fun enough, it's got the memorable songs and weird people and it's fun, but yeah people get WAYYYY too into it
