The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Audio problem: During "I Can Make You A Man," when Frank slides his finger down Rocky's chest while saying "ste-he-he-he-heam," you can hear a solitary beep from out of nowhere, from when the synthesizer was hit accidentally during that part of the song and was never edited out (it is on the CD too). (00:40:32)

Audio problem: During the first song sung by Rocky as he is getting his bandages removed when Rocky sings "Oh no no no" his mouth doesn't move. (00:37:30)

DJKostya

Audio problem: During 'Hot Patootie', just before Eddie plays the sax, he can be heard singing, "Bless my soul," but his mouth is not in sync. (00:42:55)

Super Grover

Audio problem: When Dr. Scott meets Dr. Frank-N-Furter for the first time, Dr. Scott's spoken line is "We meet at last", but his lips don't correctly move with the words.

Audio problem: During the dinner scene, just before Dr. Scott says, "We came here to discuss Eddie," we can hear a banging sound and see his wheelchair move back a little bit. (01:05:50)

Audio problem: As Frank-N-Furter exits the elevator and starts singing 'Sweet Transvestite', Janet faints but keeps screaming even after she has passed out. (00:24:25)

The Rocky Horror Picture Show mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Eddie escapes the deep freeze, he wears three rings on his left hand: his middle, ring and pinkie fingers. Bizarrely, the pinkie ring actually disappears in quite a few shots, including when Eddie plays the sax and when he lifts Columbia, just before they mess around on the floor. (00:42:30)

Trivia: At one point on set, the cast had an off-camera Easter egg hunt. Some were never found - you can see at least three of the eggs in the film: one under Frank-N-Furter's throne, one in the main hall in place of the light, and another when they are going up to the lair in the elevator.

Question: Why, when Betty and Ralph drive off on honeymoon at the start does the car say 'Wait till tonight - she got hers now he'll get his'? Am I missing something or am I just being naive and innocent?

The Doctor
