Saw it back in the '70s. The film is a lot of fun and the audience were great.

I’m sure glad cell phones didn’t exist back in the day. I’ve been on stage, in costume, singing “Sweet Transvestite” as well as the Riff Raff part of “There’s a light over at the Frankenstein place”. 81-82 time frame at Theater at Woodland in Grand Rapids.

Yeah, it’s still a thing. I saw it for the first time in November at a movie theater with live actors in front of the movie screen and working in synch with the film. Most of the items listed by DeadDog were provided. I dressed like one of the random geeks in the film and one gal painted a V for virgin on my forehead and presumably others.

It was…different. Why not?

And to compare…. Jaws was basically released the same year too!
