[quote=Anonymous]OP. Everyone is giving you snippets to show they've done it. The cultural event was big years ago, though now it's gotta be pretty dated an experience. The movie came out in 1975. It was something to do for young outsiders on a weekend night. Likely still loud and chaotic depending on the theater. There were regular attendees, and may still be.

Some people dress as the characters. There are certains lines recited with the actors, some in response. Some bring props to align with scenes in the movie (throw toast at screen, put up umbrellas because it's raining, etc.). If you haven't seen it before you're called a virgin. There are music numbers in the movie, the most famous being Time Warp, so there will be people who line up in front and dance the choreography. It's become performance art.

You don't have to do any of this but go and watch. But, besides the image of Tim Curry in drag and a young Susan Sarandon playing off her geeky husband, there's not much there for the 1 hr 38 min movie run time. I found much of the movie boring.

If you're a teen or young 20s and curious, take your friends and check it out.[/quote]
