Shock Treatment (1981)

Recommended Posts

When I found out there was a sequel to Rocky Horror Picture Show, I was stoked.

 

Then as I watched this... I wished that I could have two hours of my life back. It's a baffling, nutso movie.

Funny you say that, I did exactly the same thing but watching it again about 15 years later, in the age of reality TV and celebrity and you realise Richard O'Brien was so close to what is happening now it is scary. Having said that, some scenes really having aged well and I would love to hear the gang's take on it

I dunno, I can't dislike Shock Treatment. It pretty much predicted a future where people would willingly have themselves committed to an asylum just to get on reality TV.

I know this is an older thread, but I think this certainly qualifies as HDTGM material. A sequel to Rocky Horror, that is not a sequel, that has the same characters, by different actors. All while giving us that soundtrack that is part 80s hair bands and part mall soundtrack. I need someone to make sense of this film and as a bonus the whole thing is on YouTube so that is a win. :)
