Storyline
Following on from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", this musical is set several years later in Brad and Janet Majors' hometown - which has become a giant TV station; residents are either participants or viewers. They are married now, but their romance has fallen on the rocks. Ostensibly to fix their marriage, Brad is imprisoned on the program "Dentonvale" (the local mental hospital) while Janet is conscripted to become a new star. As Janet is entranced by the high life, she forgets Brad. Who is trying to woo her away? Written by Miss Rori Stevens

Narrator: [voice-over] Once upon a time, there lived a real fast guy. His life was fast. His friends were fast. Heh - even his food was fast. But he was still not satisfied. He wanted to share his fast philosophy with someone else, a beautiful girl. Trouble was, she was in the arms of... another man.

Trivia
Writer-Director Jim Sharman, comparing this film to The Rocky Horror Picture Show, said, "The intentions of the two films are quite disparate. The only tangible links are Brad and Janet, who act as catalysts to the plot." See more »Goofs
Revealing mistakes: During "Anyhow, Anyhow", when the gang are driving out of the studio, Frankie (Francine) is obviously running alongside the car instead of having gotten into it. See more »Quotes
