Factual error: The criminologist describes the events of the movie as taking place "on a late November evening". In the very next scene, Brad and Janet are driving in Brad's car, and President Richard Nixon's resignation speech is playing on the radio. Nixon resigned in August of 1974. (00:12:00)
The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Jim Sharman
Starring: Susan Sarandon, Tim Curry, Barry Bostwick, Charles Gray, Meat Loaf, Richard O'Brien, Christopher Biggins
Riff Raff and Magenta turn on Frank N Furter and go back to their home planet of Transsexual (Riff, Magenta and Frank are all aliens). Columbia, Rocky Horror and Frank all die. Janet, Brad and Dr Scott are left, crawling on the ground where the castle used to be (Magenta & Riff Raff took the castle back with them). The Criminologist says something profound and the credits roll.

Suggested correction: It is said by the writer of the movie that Brad taped the Nixon speech so he could listen to it later in his car, the movie does take place in late November.
Dr. Frank-N-Furter: It's not easy having a good time! Even smiling makes my face ache!
Trivia: The actor who plays Riff Raff (Richard O'Brien) wrote the original 'Rocky Horror' stage play. He also wrote the movie's sequel.
Question: When and where does Frank get kicked in the groin? (Not during "Planet Schmanet, Janet").
Chosen answer: She kicks him in the groin when he has her cornered on the stairway.
Answer: I was told that Tim Curry AKA Frank N Furter was also accidentally kicked in the groin in the pool shot. You can see the look on his face. But it's not clear if Susan Sarandon did it or the actor playing Rocky did it.
Answer: It happens on the stairwell during the song, "You Better Wise Up, Janet Weiss".
