Typing the characters of Rocky Horror Picture Show

[koan]

In honour of Halloween (my costume is planned) what types do we see in this film? And how do they change? (because change has to happen in every story)

 

[Solitaire U.]

Musicals aren't really my cup-'o-Joe, so I'm not very familiar with this movie. Seen it a couple times though (my off the cuff impression is that it's a Fe-fest), so I'll take a stab at the two characters I remember the most.

Frankenfurter is an ESFJ, but that's a biased assertion on my part. I generally default-type transvestites/drag queens/other conflicted personalities to ESFJ simply because I perceive it as the most 'alien', erratic personality type in degrees of my own understanding of it.

The therapist/analyst guy (Dr. Strangelove parody?) is an INTP/J until he morphs into an ISFJ(?) during the final act.

The other characters are too erratic for me to pin down, but typing fictional characters is not my forte.

 

[Cognisant]

The party goers confuse me, on one hand it's a party so and they're enjoying it so I'm thinking SJs but they're a great big bunch of weirdos (for the time) and SJs tend to be very sensitive to the perceptions of others, so instead I'm thinking they're mostly INTPs (natural weirdos) with some other complementary types mixed in, and I agree they're would be a ESFJ running the show, so really what you've got is an ESFJ who has gone out and collected the sort of people who will accept him for who he is regardless of what they may be, so aside from the INTPs we're looking at an assortment of other NPs.

Maybe more ENFPs and ENTPs than INTPs and INTJs?
INTPs and especially INTJs would need extroverts to drag them into anything resembling a party, bit if there's too many extroverts Frankenfurter would have trouble running the show like he does, so yeah, I'm sticking with predominantly INTPs with other NPs mixed in.

The thing I recall most about the Show was I liked it. So so far I can pin down EVERY type to be an XXXX. When I see it again (the horror), I will try to be more specific.
