Well, let me tell ya ’bout this here Rocky Horror Picture Show movie poster. I ain’t no fancy movie expert or nothin’, but I seen a thing or two, ya know? And this here poster, it’s somethin’ else. Makes ya scratch yer head and giggle all at the same time.
First off, what’s this movie even about? From what I gather, it’s about some young couple, all lovey-dovey and such, gettin’ their car broke down. Sounds like my old Betsy, always givin’ me trouble on the way to the market. Anyway, these kids, they end up at this big ol’ creepy house, where this fella, Dr. Frank-N-Furter, lives. And let me tell ya, this doctor ain’t like no doctor I ever seen. He’s wearin’ all this wild makeup and singin’ and dancin’. It’s a whole lot of craziness, I tell ya.
Now, the poster, it tries to show all this wildness. You got pictures of the characters, lookin’ all strange and glamorous. There’s Dr. Frank-N-Furter, with his big hair and shiny lips, and that fella Rocky, all muscled up and wearin’ nothin’ but some itty-bitty shorts. Makes a body blush, it does. And then there’s the young couple, lookin’ all scared and confused. They don’t know what they got themselves into.
- The colors, they’re bright and loud, like a rooster crowin’ at sunrise. Lots of reds and blacks, and that shiny gold lettering. It’s supposed to catch yer eye, I guess.
- And the words, they’re all big and bold. “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.” Sounds like somethin’ you’d see at the county fair, not a movie house. But that’s the point, I reckon. It’s supposed to be different, somethin’ you ain’t never seen before.
I heard tell that some of these movie posters, they can be worth a whole lotta money. Like that one from that old movie, “Metropolis,” they say it sold for a king’s ransom. Can you imagine? Some picture on a piece of paper bein’ worth that much? Makes ya wonder if this here Rocky Horror poster will be worth somethin’ someday. Maybe when I’m long gone and pushin’ up daisies, someone will find it in my attic and get rich. Wouldn’t that be somethin’?
But even if it ain’t worth a dime, it’s still a fun thing to look at. It reminds me of all those wild stories they tell down at the diner. You know, the ones that make you laugh and shake your head at the same time. This movie, it’s like that too, I hear. It’s got singing and dancing, and all sorts of strange goings-on. Not my cup of tea, necessarily, but some folks seem to like it. They even go to the theater and dress up like the characters, singin’ along and throwin’ stuff. Now that’s just plain silly, if you ask me. But hey, to each their own, right?
I seen some folks tryin’ to sell these posters online, on that eBay thing. They say they got all kinds, big ones, small ones, old ones, new ones. And they want a pretty penny for ‘em too. I reckon it’s all about what someone’s willin’ to pay. If you really love this movie, and you gotta have that poster hangin’ on your wall, then you’ll pay whatever it takes, I suppose.
And there’s other kinds of posters too. Like them posters for kids’ rooms, with all them cute animals and such. Or them posters where you can put your own pictures on. I seen a fella down at the post office, he had a poster made with pictures of his grandkids. It was real sweet. But this here Rocky Horror poster, it ain’t sweet. It’s weird and wild and kinda makes you feel uncomfortable, but in a good way, if that makes any sense.
So, if you’re lookin’ for a movie poster that’s different, that’s gonna make people talk, then this here Rocky Horror Picture Show poster might just be the ticket. It ain’t for the faint of heart, that’s for sure. But if you like a little bit of craziness in your life, then go ahead and get yourself one. Just don’t blame me if your neighbors start lookin’ at you funny. They probably already do anyway, at least mine do.
Now, where did I put my glasses? Can’t see a darn thing without them… Ah, there they are. Always misplacin’ things, I am. Just like that time I lost my dentures at the bingo hall. Now that was a story…
Anyway, that’s all I gotta say about this here movie poster. It’s somethin’ alright. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens.
