Let's do The Time Warp Again!, 17 August 1999
Author: Adriane Simo (adriane7@mindspring.com) from chandler, az

Oh, come on admit it: we all love this movie and have gone to see it in the theatre. I have only seen it live once, but it was something that I won't soon forget. I still love watching it at home and practice the singing! Tim Curry, Susan and Barry are all hilarious, and the songs will be forever imbedded into your brain. "Damn it Janet, I love you."
