Welcome to this special bite-sized Bonus Episode of Revolutions Per Movie with Linus O'Brien, director of “Strange Journey: The Story Of Rocky Horror", which documents the cult phenomenon created by his father, Richard O'Brien. We talk about Richard's curious charisma, his personal struggles & his accidental creation of Rocky Horror, Drag Race's Trixie Mattel's early life-changing experience with the film, how Rocky screenings continue to provide a safe space for everybody to be their authentic self, Tim Curry and Susan Sarandon, Rocky Horror being the longest running theatrical release in the history of film (and how the Clinton St Theater continued to run the movie to an empty theater during the pandemic so the run wouldn't be broken), the amazing archival footage of teenage Michael Stipe of R.E.M. speaking in the afterglow of the movie while dressed as Frank-N-Furter, 70s newscasters trying to crack the whys of Rocky, the live shadowcasts and toast & rice, and how the legacy of Rocky Horror boils down to two words: community and connection. So please support this great film in person this weekend when it's being independently released in theaters all over the world, and continue to support indie!GET TICKETS TO STRANGE JOURNEY (in theaters this Friday Sept. 26th):https://rockyhorrordoc.com/LINUS O'BRIEN:https://www.instagram.com/linus.obrienREVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE:Host Chris Slusarenko (Eyelids, Guided By Voices, owner of Clinton Street Video rental store) is joined by actors, musicians, comedians, writers & directors who each week pick out their favorite music documentary, musical, music-themed fiction film or music videos to discuss.

“It's just a jump to the left…” Join Ian, Megs & Liam for our 297th episode as we put on our fishnets, grab some toast, and throw rice in the aisles for a dive into the cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975). Kev? He makes a very late entrance—literally busting through the door in gold hotpants shouting “Don't dream it, be it!” in our 297th episode as we discuss: Is this the greatest cult film of all time—or just the weirdest date night ever committed to celluloid? Do we forgive this film for its lack of consent based on the overall themes of inclusivity… when maybe we really shouldn't? How Tim Curry turned Frank-N-Furter into one of cinema's most iconic characters—and why no one else could've pulled it off. Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick as “the straights”—and why they're the perfect foils for absolute chaos. We've got some thoughts on free speech and what's happening with Jimmy Kimmel—because much like Rocky Horror, controversy loves a stage. Why the soundtrack still slaps nearly 50 years later—and which numbers we still belt out. How the midnight screening culture kept this film alive—and whether fan participation is more fun than the movie itself. Which jokes land, which ones haven't aged well, and why the film still divides audiences. Is Rocky Horror satire, celebration, or just… unexplainable? And finally, whether The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the Best Film Ever—or just the best excuse to dress up and sing badly in public.

For episode 257, I'm joined once again by my co-host Myles Hughes, with producer Steve Prusakowski working behind the scenes.

Originally released in 2023, we're re-publishing this episode to celebrate the 50th anniversary of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW — the longest-running continuous theatrical release of all time and one of the most iconic cult films in cinema history. What began as a fringe stage production in a tiny experimental theater space in London evolved into a global phenomenon — complete with costumes, callbacks, and midnight screenings that are still going strong half a century later. In this episode, we trace ROCKY HORROR's full journey: from its origins on the London stage to its ill-fated original release, its rise through the midnight movie circuit, and its ultimate legacy as a defining piece of cult cinema. Whether you've done the Time Warp a thousand times or you're just discovering it, this is the story behind THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW. Theme Song: "There's Still a Little Bit of Time, If We Hurry and I Mean Hurry" by Slasher Film Festival Strategy. This episode was written, produced and edited by Gary Horne, Justin Bishop & Todd A.

Hey hey! Micky Dolenz was a Monkee, and once he stopped Monkeeing around his career took him to some unusual places. Few stranger than this one-off BBC television drama, part of the Premiere strand of single plays. It's a bleak, eccentric snapshot of a now almost unrecognisable time when Hell's Angels patrolled the streets, single parenthood was a mark of shame and British television channels could afford to make shows.In the first in a two-part look at Premiere's pop connections - which will conclude over on our Patreon - Mark Cunliffe joins us again to talk about the often grim lives of the film's cast, the strange niches they often got cast in, and their connections to everyone from Joan Collins to Saddam Hussein. We also discuss Cliff Twemlow, and Graham makes a confession that risks his career...As noted above, we've got a sequel to this episode coming out which Rocky Horror fans won't want to miss - and you won't miss it if you join our Patreon, where you'll also find weekly articles on Doctor Who, The X-Files and The Twilight Zone, plus an end-of-month podcast (Last Night...) that rounds up the wide variety of things we've been watching recently.

Written by Reed LochamyPlayed by Will Lochamy, Hunter Briggs, Michael Ruffino, Sophie Schaffer, and Flap JackFor most rounds, there are three questions, and you rank your answers, assigning point values of 5, 3, and 1 each round, depending on your level of confidence. The one you feel best about is your 5-point answer, the one you're just guessing on is your 1-point answer. (For any rounds where the points don't work this way, we'll discuss that during the game.)If you feel certain that you know the answer to all three questions in a typical round, then instead of assigning points of 5, 3 and 1, you can go for 11 points. If you do that and you answer all three questions correctly, you get 11 points (instead of 9). However, if you do that and you miss just one question, you get a 0 for the round.The bonus round question has five possible answers. You get 3 points for every correct answer you submit. Like with going for 11 in typical rounds, though, you can choose to go for 20 in the bonus round (but doing so is risky in the same way that going for 11 in typical rounds is).Have questions about the game or how it works? Please feel free to email those to will@bhammountainradio.com

Ben and Rob wake up in ‘Dark City', the dark sci-fi fantasy from Alex Proyas, director of ‘The Crow'. Released a year before ‘The Matrix', ‘Dark City' tells the story of John Murdock (Rufus Sewell), a man who has lost his memory in a city that never sees the sun where memory and time itself are the playthings of a race of alien beings known only as The Strangers. ‘Dark City' was a critical success but a complete box-office bomb, with Alex Proyas ultimately blaming a studio that didn't support the film correctly. But what on earth made ‘Dark City' the cult classic sci-fi fantasy that film forgot, when it's so nearly ‘The Matrix'? Why does the theatrical version spoil almost all of the movie in the opening seconds? Can Ben make peace with this plot!? And what's Richard O Brien from Rocky Horror doing in here?CONSUUUME to find out all this and much MUCH more!PLUS!

This week on MusicalTalk, Nick returns to The Rocky Horror Show for the first time in 25 years and shares his reflections on the cult classic's enduring appeal, high camp, and raucous audience participation. Then, it's off to the London Coliseum, where Nick and Hannah experience The Great Gatsby — but in a rare twist, it's Nick who walks in knowing nothing about the show, while Hannah holds all the insight! Join them for a lively discussion of this ambitious new production, the surprises it held, and how it reimagines F. Scott Fitzgerald's iconic world for the stage.
Tonight on the show, we're diving into a trio of cult-favorite musicals that blur the lines between horror, comedy, camp, and tragedy: The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975, starring Tim Curry), Little Shop of Horrors (1986, starring Rick Moranis), and the 2001 filmed stage production of Jekyll and Hyde: The Musical, featuring David Hasselhoff in a career-defining dual performance.At first glance, these might seem like wildly different productions—ranging from glam-rock alien chaos to doo-wop-infused plant horror, to a dark, gothic tale of split identity—but together they tell a broader story about how musical theater has embraced monstrosity as metaphor. Each of these works asks: What happens when the line between man and monster blurs? What desires are we really afraid of? And can we sing our way through the madness?Tim Curry's Frank-N-Furter is a force of nature—part scientist, part seducer, part destroyer. Rocky Horror was a revolution in form and content, upending gender norms, mocking genre tropes, and creating an interactive cult ritual that has endured for nearly 50 years. It's a cultural milestone not just because of what it is, but because of what it unleashed—a safe space for the weird, the queer, and the outsider.Rick Moranis' Seymour in Little Shop of Horrors gives us a very different kind of mad scientist: a nebbish pushover corrupted by power, ambition, and a bloodthirsty plant. The film (based on the Howard Ashman and Alan Menken stage musical) blends 1960s Motown stylings with Faustian tragedy, capturing the dark side of the American dream—and warning us what happens when we feed the things that promise us love and success.And then there's Jekyll and Hyde, the most classical of the three, but perhaps the most psychologically intense. Hasselhoff's performance—often memed, but undeniably committed—gives us a musical take on Robert Louis Stevenson's timeless story of duality. It's a sweeping, gothic powerhouse of repression, temptation, and the dangers of scientific hubris—a thematic cousin to both Frank-N-Furter and Seymour in ambition and eventual ruin.Reviewing these three together allows us to trace how musicals have uniquely adapted horror and moral ambiguity to the stage and screen. From parody to tragedy to grand melodrama, these stories use music to heighten emotion, build absurdity, and expose the deep fears and fantasies lurking behind every monstrous transformation.So grab your fishnets, your gardening shears, or your top hat and cane—we're about to explore the darker, stranger side of musical theater, where the monsters are often the ones singing the loudest.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59
This week on Film Sack, we tackled wild theater behavior during the Minecraft movie, wondering if it's Gen Z's Rocky Horror. We debated whether theaters should host interactive screenings and reflected on the fading magic of communal movie experiences. We laughed over 4DX seat chaos, appreciated inspiring listener feedback, geeked out on MCU and Trek connections, and even discussed CGI mouth edits in Kraven. It's all about nostalgia, crowd energy, and keeping the movie-going spirit alive—one messy, popcorn-filled showing at a time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
