Shock Treatment Biography
Shock Treatment was the less successful and critically panned follow-up to the classic cult film The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It was released in 1981, written by Richard O'Brien who had also written RHPS. The film features 16 songs by O'Brien, some of which were originally written for Rocky Horror.
Shock Treatment features several of the cast members and characters of the original film, but appearing in different roles. Continuing from RHPS are the characters of Brad and Janet, originally played by Barry Bostwick and Susan Sarandon, now played by Cliff de Young and Jessica Harper. Richard O'Brien, Patricia Quinn and Nell Campbell, and Charles Gray return, but in new roles. O'Brien and Quinn play manipulative, brother-and-sister doctors. Campbell is a seductive nurse. Gray's character is a judge, and very close to his Narrator persona of RHPS. If the plot of the first film was widely considered abstract, here it is even more so. The script has been compared to the work of dramatist Paddy Chayevsky, who once said that, "Television is democracy at its ugliest."

Shock Treatment is also the name of a punk-rock / power pop trio from Madrid, Spain.
The band was born in 1989, when its members were studying at the high school and discovered their common worship towards The Ramones. In fact, they decided to call their band 'Sock Treatment' after a Ramones album.
They recorded four LPs before 1998, when they ceased their activity: "Adiós, tú", "Punk party" "Operación dragón" and "Están vivos". They also released several singles and participated in a split album with punkrock bands from Italy and Spain.
