I very clearly remember waiting up to watch this. It was a faithful retelling of the cult classic with some of the original cast gracing our screens. It was a strange and difficult world we were living in with the pandemic, still trying to figure out which way was up, and productions like these were everywhere. Fun little romps to try to cheer us all up. To me, this was a great success.

And to the one and only Tim Curry. He hasn't done much on screen since his health changed, but there is so much to be said for the fact that he loves his craft and this work so much that he did it anyways. As a long time fan not only of the film but of Mr. Curry, it was a wonderful treat to see him return.

Is it perfect? No. But see it for what it is: a love letter to the fans of RHPS.
