Hot patootie, bless my soul, Meat Loaf really loves that rock ‘n’ roll! Or at least he did, until he was trapped in the nether regions of Dr. Frank N Furter’s (Tim Curry) castle.

A glorious tribute to early horror and sci-fi movies, as well as a tongue-in-cheek musical romp, Jim Sharman’s The Rocky Horror Picture Show ushers us into a world of sexuality, debauchery, and more murders than you remember there being.

The story picks up with young couple Brad (Barry Bostwick) and Janet (Susan Sarandon), whose car breaks down near a country castle where they go looking for help and are instead treated to the most horrific hospitality. The head of the house is sweet transvestite Frank N Furter, a mad scientist on a mission to create his perfect man. But along the way, there have been a few hiccups - in love and experimentation - including rock ‘n’ roll biker Eddie (Mr Loaf), who used to be the doctor’s toyboy.

After Eddie caught a wandering eye, Furter partially lobotomised him and trapped him in a deep freeze chamber down in the depths of his laboratory under the castle (which, by the by, is also a spaceship). Lucky for Eddie, he had the strength - and motorbike-power - necessary to escape. Unlucky for him, this proves to be his final ride.
