Join Dr. Frank-N-Furter, Brad Majors, Janet Weiss and Eddie: Ex Delivery Boy in the most popular cult classic of all time. "When bland engaged couple Brad and Janet seek shelter after their car breaks down in a storm, they find themselves made welcome in the very weird home of mad scientist Dr Frank N. Furter, an alien transvestite who is building a monster called Rocky."--Publisher. |
