Artful Tragedy With Energetic Music

If you are on this page, you probably already know that when this was released in 1975, it was pretty much a complete failure. In 1976, it was rereleased, and not only was the verdict reversed, but to this day has a cult following. This is an interesting work of art in that it combines music, comedy, horror, and tragedy. The movie starts with a wedding. And then we see that Brad and Janet decide to get engaged. The movie actually starts happy, but there are some bad omens as well. (Such as them singing of their love for each other in a graveyard, and when an empty coffin is brought into the church.) They then have some car trouble, and go into the castle for help. This is when the trouble begins. To make a long story short, they are introduced to different monster type characters like Magenta, Riff Raff, and Dr. Frank N Furter. Poor Brad and Janet find themselves in a 'hell on earth.' Brad and Janet are not often seen in a favorable light. But think about it! They had some car trouble; and all they really wanted was to borrow the telephone to call for help, and they end up corrupted and violated. The big tragedy here is that most of these characters are driven by their own pleasures and desires with no real moral brakes so to speak. (The boundaries of 'this far and no further' are most certainly crossed.) And even the innocent and sympathetic Janet becomes corrupted in this environment. One thing that makes this dvd so interesting is that we have an interesting paradox. We have characters who fall on tragedy, but music that is lively and energetic. The movie also ends with a major bang, but there is notable tragedy in that no one really gains any insight into human nature, and even the few characters who come out alive don't go through any real growth. The movie seems to be a hell on earth where the party eventually ends (in a very tragic manner for some) while the survivors just want to party more. The dvd has some interesting extras such as a commentary with Riff Raff and Magenta, and prompters if you wish to participate in the show. This is not only an interesting cult movie to follow, but it is a nice way to have a 70s night. It is also good if you want to see a tragic musical.
