undomiel's review
2.0
For a huge Rocky Horror fan like myself, this was unfortunately a bit of a disappointment.
Whilst the content of the interviews was great, and they managed to interview so many people (other than King Tim Curry himself), so many of the major interviewees (Susan, Barry etc.) were super short, whilst minor characters had huge chapters dedicated to them, which was personally not what I was looking for.
Moreover, I was so so confused; half of the answers given to the questions made no sense regarding the actual question asked. This was a continuous issue, making me think that the interviews have been somehow edited, as there is no way that that many people failed to answer questions properly.
At times, it also felt like the interviewers were trying to stir sh*t and make a big deal out of things that weren't actually "drama" just to try and aid the book. For me, this had no appeal.
On the whole, not a huge fan of this, and whilst it offers interviews that probably can't be accessed elsewhere, I feel like they actually gave little information of value for avid fans of Rocky Horror.
