5 Movies Whose Plots No Longer Work Due to Technological Advances

By Thomas Ahearn /

1. The Rocky Horror Picture Show

It€™s the classic tale of a young couple who need to find a phone because their car has a flat tire. Their search brings them to a castle filled with Transylvanians, only not the kind from eastern Europe. By the end of the night, they€™ve been transformed into transvestites and have had sex with Tim Curry. Nowadays, Brad Majors (asshole!) could simply whip out his smartphone and call AAA. He and his fiancé Janet Weiss (slut!) wouldn€™t have to go looking for help and a cult phenomenon would have no reason to exist. It may be the definitive midnight movie but technology-wise, it€™s stuck in a time warp.
