!!''Revenge of the Old Queen'' provides examples of

* AliensAmongUs: Transylvanian spies and human sympathisers are stationed all over the world.
* AliensInCardiff: Riff Raff teleports to a Transylvanian safe house in Fresno, California. Though they're mentioned to have teleporters hidden in places all over the world including Washington.
* AlienSea: Transsexual has an "ink-black glutinous sea that gloops like an ocean of oil" alongside a beach of black sand.
* AliensSpeakingEnglish: As well as speaking it, the "TRANSDUCER PROGRAMMING FOR THE BEGINNER" manual's cover is written in English, but the instructions inside are in an alien language.
* AllThereInTheScript:
** Character's names at times in the script.
** [[http://www.rockymusic.org/showdoc/revenge-of-the-old-queen.php Pretty much everything is. The movie was never made.]]
* AlwaysNight: Justified as the planet Transsexual somehow has no sun.
* AmbiguouslyAbsentParent: Frank's father is never alluded to in this script.
* AmbiguouslyRelated: Given that the script seems to ignore ''Film/ShockTreatment'', Brad being adopted may no longer be canon. Meaning it's unclear whether his brother Steve and their mother are his biological family or adopted.
* AnalProbing: One of the fears of the diners singing "Never Let Your Daughter Date an Alien".
* AntagonistTitle: If you consider The Old Queen the story's villain.
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: Janet's character profile says "She drinks, smokes, dyes her hair, hooks and watches television".
* ArtisticLicenseSpace: Transsexual is specified to have no sun. Although rogue planets that don't orbit stars exist in real life, they wouldn't be warm enough to sustain, let alone evolve humanoid life.
* AscendedExtra: Riff Raff is now one of the main characters.
* AssimilationPlot: Steve believes that Transylvanians are trying to make us all slaves to sensation, just like them.
* AsYouKnow: "We PAN AROUND and see a very SMALL PERSON dressed in the manner of this strange Planet (which as we all know by now) is the Planet of Transsexual in the Galaxy of Transylvania.".
* BenevolentAlienInvasion: Your mileage may vary on whether you think Transylvanians trying to make us be more like them is a good thing or a bad thing.
* BittersweetEnding: Most of the characters [[spoiler: who are still alive]] at the end of the movie are living happily on Transsexual except for [[spoiler: Steve, who's stranded in the past, being arrested by the police who think he's insane.]]
* BookEnds: The script starts and ends with Riff Raff about to climb into [[ILoveTheDead Magenta's coffin]].
* BroadStrokes: Takes broad strokes from an [[http://www.theshocktreatmentnetwork.com/rhshh.htm earlier attempt at a sequel]] where Brad turns gay and Janet gives birth to Frank's son. It could nearly be considered canon if you ignore the ending where Janet and her baby go off to Transsexual.
* CanonDiscontinuity: Seems to ignore ''Film/ShockTreatment'' with Janet only referred to as Brad's fiance when they were married in ''Shock Treatment''.
* CerebusRetCon: The first movie only hints at it in the song ''Superheroes" but we know now that the events in Frank’s castle destroyed Brad and Janet’s lives.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Doctor Scott is the only surviving character from the first movie who isn't mentioned, which is strange because the UFO bureau he belonged to features prominently.
* ContrivedCoincidence:
** Steve investigates a Transylvanian safe house at the same time Riff Raff has been dispatched to Earth. Also Riff Raff uses a teleporter hidden in a hotel room that [[spoiler: Janet]] happens to be staying in.
** Judy accidentally activates the Transducer to send her to Transsexual at the same time Riff Raff teleports to Earth, if she'd been a few seconds earlier or later one of them could have been [[TeleFrag tele-fragged]].
* CutAndPasteSuburb: Child!Steve and his mother live in one in the past.
* FictionAsCoverUp: A popular movie based on the events of the first film exists, but it's not clear who made it.
* ForgottenFirstMeeting: Riff Raff and Janet don’t recognize each other at first as Janet has been trying to forget the events of the first movie for the last 15 years.
* GassHole: When Steve finally gets over his nostalgia of Judy, he remembers that she used to sit at the back of Miss Peterson's class and pass wind.
* GreasySpoon: The coffee shop where the customers sing "Never Let Your Daughter Date en Alien" is described as "a typical William Hopper style of diner".
* HappyEndingOverride: This movie shows that Riff Raff got away with [[spoiler:killing Frank]] for a few years by lying about it, but the plot kicks off when the queen sends him back to Earth to bring Frank home.
* ILoveTheDead: The very last scene is Riff Raff [[BrotherSisterIncest climbing into Magenta's coffin]].
* InformationWantsToBeFree: The script starts with a paragraph written by the guy who uploaded it, saying that he feels bad putting it online without permission but thinks that ''Rocky Horror'' fans deserve to read it.
* InterspeciesRomance: Between De Lordy and Judy; the song "Never Let Your Daughter Date an Alien" explains why this is a bad thing.
* IWantSong: Riff Raff sings ''Short End Of The Stick'' about how he wants to rule rather than follow. ''Judy Judy Judy'' is Steve's song about how he wants Judy.
* LightningReveal: One shows a road sign leading to Fresno with a Transylvanian lightning bolt symbol on it.
* MissingMom: Janet to Sonny. [[spoiler: They reunite at the end when Sonny takes the royal throne after the Old Queen dies.]]
* MortonsFork: Riff can admit that he killed Frank or go to Earth, pretend to look for him and fail. Either way he'll be in trouble.
* MythologyGag: There a few nods to ''Film/ShockTreatment'';
** Riff Raff tells Magenta's corpse that they can play Doctors and nurses, a reference to the characters they played in ''Shock Treatment'', also a nod to the title song that says “Playing doctor and nurse can be good for your health.” .
** The housing estate that was built where Frank's castle used to be is called ''Happy Homes'' after the reality show Janet's parents starred in.
* NakedFirstImpression: Judy is transported to Transylvania while in the shower. She arrives stark naked... right in front of Lord De Lordy.
* NeverRecycleABuilding: Averted. A housing estate is being built where Frank's castle was in the first movie, meaning that Riff can't locate Frank's body.
* NoNameGiven: The small servant is just called Small Person in the script.
* PaperThinDisguise: Riff simply wears wigs around Brad's younger brother Steve and he mistakes him for his high school sweetheart Judy and her brother, George.
* PeggySue: Riff Raff goes back in time to try and stop [[spoiler: himself killing Frank in the first movie but fails.]]
* PleasurePlanet: the ''The Moon Drenched Shores of Transylvania'' song implies Transsexual to be this and Riff Raff has to cover his ears to block out "the sighs, moans and groans of unseen Transylvanians drowning in pleasure".
* PortalNetwork: The Transylvanians have a network of teleporter/time machines hidden throughout Earth.
* POVSequel: Thanks to timetravel, we briefly see the outside of the castle from the first movie [[spoiler:as Riff Raff is running in to kill Frank at the end of The Floor Show.]]
* RememberTheNewGuy: The fog during the ''Super-Heroes'' song in the first movie must have obscured all the time travellers come back to save Frank.
* RevengeOfTheSequel: Being a satire of horror movies, this kind of title is fitting.
* RhymingWithItself: Every line in the chorus of ''The Moon Drenched Shores of Transylvania'' ends with the word "Transylvania".
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Frank is revealed to be a prince who spends his time doing experiments on another planet. His mother assumes he's just on Earth to have sex.
* SettingIntroductionSong: Starts with "Thee Moon Drenched Shores Of Transylvania" which describes the PleasurePlanet Transsexual.
* ShoePhone: The Transylvanian teleporters that we see are disguised as showers in Holiday Inns.
* StableTimeLoop: At one point Steve mentions a crazy guy showing up on his lawn when he was a kid and getting arrested by the police. [[spoiler: At the end Steve is stranded in the past and goes to his mother, ranting about aliens and time travel. She calls the police, who drag him off, thinking he's insane.]]
* TheStarscream: De Lordy is next in line for the throne after Frank and knows that he's dead. He can't wait for the queen to die so he can rule.
** Riff Raff again shows shades of it during ''Born To Rule''.
* StormingTheCastle: The Old Queen makes The Transylvanians run in and rescue Frank but they're too late. [[AsYouKnow The castle launches into outer space]] and the blast kills them.
* StylisticSuck: The movie starts with us seeing the journey from Earth to Transsexual. It looks deliberately fake but ends with a quicker, more realistic looking version of the same journey.
* SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: [[spoiler: Brad and Magenta]] have both died since the last movie.
* TeleporterAccident: Riff Raff invokes this trope so that Steve will step into the transducer by himself so he can send Steve out of the way to Alaska.
* TimePassesMontage: On the way to Fresno, we get "A MONTAGE of SHOTS of STEVE's car hurtling through DAYS and NIGHTS, RAIN and SUNSHINE, PUNCTURES and TRAFFIC COPS, etc. This of course gives us the passing of time.".
* TimeTravellersAreSpies: When Riff Raff first meets Steve, he's in drag and pretends to be fellow agent Judy. The next morning he pretends to be her fictional brother, also an agent investigating aliens. Not really a time travel example but the characters do end up travelling back in time later on.
* TraumaInducedAmnesia: Janet has blocked the events of the first movie from her mind.
* ATrueStoryInMyUniverse: ''Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'' has been made as a movie since the events of the first film, though it seems to be called The Rocky Horror Show rather than The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
* VichyEarth: The Transylvanians have infiltrated the American government and it's implied that they've done this to others.
* ViewersAreMorons: The Denton Holiday Inn has a different colour and style from the Alaska one in order not to confuse the viewers.
* WeAreEverywhere: The bureau and/or transylvanians seem to have agents everywhere. A random man in the diner reports what Steve and Riff are doing to somebody on the phone.
* WholesomeCrossdresser: Riff Raff's stated to be one while disguised as Judy.
* WhyDidYouMakeMeHitYou: Riff Raff asks Magenta's corpse at the start why she made him kill the only thing he ever loved.
* WrongTimeTravelSavvy: A StableTimeLoop is demonstrated but [[spoiler:both Riff Raff and The Old Queen attempt and fail to stop Frank being killed in the first movie.]]
* YoungerThanSheLooks: Janet is described as being around 35 but looking at least 50.
