Horror News: A Brief Look at Modern Queer Horror
Critic Reviews:
It's one of those movies you have to use a lot of hyphens to explain. A horror-rock-transvestite-camp-omnisexual-musical parody.
This is the epitome of camp. You look up camp and there’s probably a picture of dear Frank in his fishnets and pearls. Rocky fans throng to the theater every time it is shown, letting lose sometimes for the first time in their life.
This is the one movie that can’t even be discussed without mentioning its fans, for they have changed it from being an undistinguished campy horror send-up to a fabulously entertaining multi-media midnight show.
