Description
Rocky Horror Picture Show is about a scientist taking in two people who were stranded outside his castle. Brad (Barry Bostwick) and Janet (Susan Sarandon) both take this shelter and meet Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry). During this whole thing, a lot of weird stuff happens to Janet and Brad.
One of the story defining things that happens is Dr. Frank-N-Furter creates a human creature much in the same way as Frankenstein does his creature. The creature that Dr. Frank-N-Furter creates is the complete opposite of Frankenstein's creature though. His name is Rocky (Peter Hinwood), and he is as dumb as a rock, but a beautiful creation as opposed to Frankenstein's creature who was grotesque, but had the capability to learn and grow.
