So I've just rewatched it after years of not seeing it and thought it would be cool if we talked about it here. I've only ever seen the vhs tape so if there is any scenes in like the DVD or bluerays that I'm not aware of I can't comment on.

Gonna rewatch it in a bit, it's rewinding now and maybe look up some lyrics later. Thought I put this up early so everyone can see and comment.

I'll put my thoughts down below and you don't have to comment today. If you watch it a week later and want to talk about feel free to. I would just really love to get y'all opinion on it.

Edit just realized I put This in main instead of movies, sorry. I'll see about cross posting at least.

    My parents let me n my brothers watch RHPS when we were young chilluns. First time seeing a non-heteronormative person, ‘‘twas pretty cool. All the music does slap fucking hard, and it’s just so fucking weird. That being said, Frankenfurter does sexually assault Brad and Janet, has a literal sex slave, and does some casual murder, so I can definitely vibe with the criticism that the film’s not so great for queer visibility and acceptance.

      Yeah that scene left me feeling like uh... and the way Frankenfurter was controlling everyone was really off putting. Starting to wonder if I should tag this post NSFW or with a CW for these things. Tried not to mention it so as not to spoil the plot but I can put it.
