Failing to capitalise on The Rocky Horror Picture Show’s cult fandom, this pseudo-sequel features many of the same cast, some of the same characters and none of the original’s audacious allure. Richard O’Brien swaps horror films for reality TV as a recast Brad and Janet confront their own marital woes via a series of gameshow manipulati­ons. New extras sit alongside archived materials, all of which point to a film that survives purely on the goodwill of its predecesso­r. Matt Looker
