STRANGE JOURNEY: THE STORY OF ROCKY HORROR Watch Trailer

STRANGE JOURNEY: THE STORY OF ROCKY HORROR

From humble origins as a London fringe theater play to its meteoric rise, fall and resurrection as the biggest cult film of all time, this is the definitive story of the THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, which was first released in theaters 50 years ago on September 26, 1975. With intimate access to its creator Richard O’Brien and other major players such as Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon and Lou Adler, the documentary explores what makes the play and film so singular: their groundbreaking and transgressive themes, iconic performances and epic songs that took over popular culture. The unparalleled cult phenomenon that sprung up around it created both the midnight screenings which continue to this day and a safe haven for those who ever felt different or marginalized. DIR/Prod Linus O’Brien; SCR/PROD Avner Shiloah; PROD Adam Gibbs, Garret Price. U.S., 2025, color, 89 min. NOT RATED
