Summary - Great 4.0

You need a little OOHH shock treatment!! This is an unknown little movie. It just happens to be the sequel to my favorite movie of all time- The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Yep, this is the sequel, and for a bit more of fun facts, there was originally a third one planned called “Revenge of the Old Queen”. Unfortunately nobody signed on to it, and it got lost forever. Shock Treatment is nothing and everything like Rocky Horror. First, Susan Sarandon and Barry Botswick don’t return. Brad and Janet are portrayed by 2 completely opposite people. It’s hard to get over at first, but with an open mind, its fine. People like the insane Richard O’ Brien and Patricia Quinn return, though as different characters. My take on this is Brad and Janet are pretty much haunted by these bizarre people disguising themselves as different people. Interesting. Of course, the transylvanians don’t return either. Here we have the wildly strange and creepy people of Denton, USA. The whole movie takes place in a TV show set and… well… shock treatment.. for Brad…? Ok, this movie is impossible to explain. You just need to see it. With an open mind, that is.

Acting - Great 4.0

The new Brad and Janet sure aren’t Brad and Janet, but at the same time, they are. It’s strange, but somehow these new actors fit the roles. Of course, Little Nell, Charles Grey, Richard O’ Brien and Patricia Quinn are extremely fun to see again.
