Verdict on Sane Inside Insanity: The Phenomenon of Rocky Horror
Recap
This is a documentary explore the fandom behind the Rocky Horror production and how it created one of the biggest cult followings. We learn how the show came about, the ambitious project and people from different backgrounds.
Best Parts
This is a brilliant glimpse behind the curtain to one of the biggest cult movies in history. It shows us the opinions of the cast and crew about the movie after working on stage show and how it made an impact in a different way. Anytime we learn more about the pleasure of making a movie and becoming important is a delight for everyone to watch. A big thing is having nearly ever star of the movie involved in discussion what is meant to them too, not only the fans side of things.
Worst Parts
The only bad thing is that I don’t think this would turn anyone into wanting to join the cult. If people have made their minds up, they will not get very much new from it, as it feels more like a documentary to give the biggest fans an extra glimpse behind the curtain.
Final Thoughts – Sane Inside Insanity: The Phenomenon of Rocky Horror is a delightful glimpse behind the curtain.
