Emerald Catron — Wed, 24 Oct 2012 02:20:30 +0000

10 Things You Didn't Know About 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show'

Danny Gallagher — Mon, 22 Oct 2012 20:50:32 +0000

Few cult films have been able to define the term as clearly as 1975's Halloween classic ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show.’ Decades after its release, toilet-paper toting fans still show up week after week at midnight screenings across the globe dressed in fishnet stockings and full makeup. They not only watch the same movie they’ve seen hundreds of times, they also act it out and throw props at the screen. The only way it could be more of a cult is if some kind of live goat sacrifice was involved.
