Sorry that this topic didn't resonate with folks. I thought I'd try something a bit different.

The movie is a cult classic (#14 on IMDB's "100 Greatest Cult Films" list). Wife and I went to see it on our first date at Uni in 1975. Fashion show half way through and all that. It was the first film for Tim Curry and Meat Loaf, and a first starring role for Susan Sarandon. And my kids even discovered it, 20 + years later.

Anyway ...

Thanks, all, for the submissions! I'm going to award this to GGRosalie's post as conjuring much of the spirit of the show; Beetlejuice would feel quite at home with Dr Frank N. Furter. I also appreciate Ed's and Don's necromancy!

Take it away, Rosalie! (I think you're going to have a busy week, here and there .)

I thought about entering this challenge, but I just couldn't come up with anything to illustrate the Time Warp or Dammit Janet.

somewhere in my files, is a shot of the Larger-than-life statue of Richard O'Brian a.k.a. Riff-Raff located in Hamilton, New Zealand - sadly I'm unable to find it!

Thank you very much - I didn't know what the costume I photographed was - that is I hadn't seen that show either. I just thought it looked like he was dressed as somebody I probably should know

Now I have to think of another topic
