    If this camp cult classic was mentioned before, I missed it. Anyone see it at a midnight show? Did you dress up or bring rice, a newspaper or water pistol? It was years before I could watch it and find out what some of the dialog was because I was in my living room instead of a theater full of hundreds of fans shouting out our own version.

    The only time I saw it was on TV. I think it was VH-1....which means it was hacked to hell.

    Honestly, I haven't heard of any theater around here showing any late viewings of it. I know it tends to be done from time to time in other cities across the country, but I think Michigan is just out of touch with it's campy classic side.

    It happens a lot in some areas around Halloween. I have the DVD but would love to see it at the theater.

    Not so my Wolverine brother! I don't know how close it plays to Oak Park but it's there.

    @Marc. Maybe they cut out a glimpse of nipple but other than that I wouldn't be surprised if ywhat you saw wasn't edited for content (much).

    The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the 1975 film adaptation of the British rock musical stageplay, The Rocky Horror Show, written by Richard O'Brien. The film is a parody of B-movie, science fiction and horror films of the late 1940's through early 1970s. Director Jim Sharman collaborated on the screenplay with O'Brien, who wrote both the book and lyrics for the stage. The film introduces Tim Curry and features Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick along with cast members from the original Kings Road production presented at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 1973.

    Still in limited release 35 years after its premiere, it has the longest-running theatrical release in film history. It gained notoriety as a midnight movie in 1977 when audiences began participating with the film in theatres. Rocky Horror is the first film from a major Hollywood studio to be in the midnight movie market. The motion picture has a large international following and is one of the most well known and financially successful midnight movies of all time. In 2005, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
