It's not in my top anything. It was a "cultural middle-finger" at the time. However, Tim Curry is one of my favorite actors and only misfits don't like Meatloaf. I never participated, but the midnight showings with the weirdo's throwing rice and acting out were entertaining in the "mood" I was in. I remember one showing where the theater thought it was a good idea to turn on an aircraft sized strobe light unit at the back of the theater when people were leaving. I wonder if there are still some unfortunate souls still to be found under some seats there, scared to venture into the real world. Good times.
Yeah, I've gone to see it in the various theater re-showings and done all the silly things I'm supposed to do, at the behest of my friends who are fans. I never really got the appeal.
Meatloaf still puts on a pretty good show, by the way.
