The Story

    The host of this gathering is a transvestite clad in lingerie, Dr. Frank N. Furter , a mad scientist who claims to be from another planet. With assistants Columbia and Magenta looking on, Frank unveils his latest creation – Rocky . 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 – Eddie 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?
