IT’S SHOWTIME!

Let’s do the time warp again! The 1975 movie musical The Rocky Horror Picture Show gets a rollicking remake starring Victoria Justice and Ryan Mccartan as Janet and Brad. They’re a cute couple whose car trouble leads them to the castle — and laboratory! — of sexually ambiguous mad scientist Dr. Frank-n-furter ( Laverne Cox), who’s holding a science convention to showcase the “birth” of his hunky creation Rocky (Staz Nair), his personal FrankN-stud. (The original Frank-nFurter, Tim Curry, appears here as a narrator.) Sure, it was the interactiv­e theatrical experience that helped make the original a cult classic (this production includes a wink to this phenomenon). However, this TV version has a cool cast (Adam Lambert rocks as Frank’s ex Eddie, a role originally played by Meat Loaf) and maintains a campy sense of fun that should bring in a new generation of fans and inspire more than a few Halloween costumes. Besides, who says viewers can’t sing along and throw stuff at the screen at home?
