Jesus Christ Siskel was 33 in this?!! I’m 20 years older than him now and look younger! I used to watch Dawn of The Dead and Eraserhead all the time back then. Hated the Rocky Horror audiences that were usually there (they where mostly the local drama queens from HS drama class) but it was cool that all the screens had a different film playing at midnight.
I understand, but to be fair it's really made to be seen in theatrical setting. People come in costume, make jokes, sing aloud, and act crazy. That's the only setting in which this movie works.
you know what's wild about time and the perception of time? this was recorded when, 1979? so _Casablanca_ came out in 1943, and so would've been 36 years old then. and they're talking about _Casablanca_ with the same sort of obvious reverence for it as a masterpiece the way we still do today, but _Casablanca_ to them would've only been as old as _Platoon_ is now to us. and _Casablanca_ is still _Casablanca,_ but _Platoon_ just doesn't have that same sort of baked-in masterpiece thing, even though it's still a very very admired film to this day. I think we're more into something like _Aliens,_ which also came out in 1986. but it's still not the same. it's just not the same. the classics are still the classics, but our choices for classics made in the '80s and beyond have changed quite a bit.
What?!...No Led Zeppelin's the song remains the same?..it too was a midnight movie Feature back in 1976...the same year that Rocky horror picture show was Revived and re-released

Saw Rocky Horror every weekend between 1980-85..West Village, NYC..
My wife and I just recently tried to watch rocky horror and we couldn’t get through it. One of those movies I guess I just don’t understand

Brian De Palma's Phantom OF The Paradise>Rocky Horror Picture Show:)
Sounds like a good double feature...for Halloween perhaps?
I'm not going to argue with that.
Pink f made nearly throw up & I didn’t watch it all
Dawn Of The Dead>Monroeville Mall:)

lol these guys really reviewed Pink Flamingos.... Female Trouble & Desperate Living are much better

Yeah, I saw it at the midnight movie too, but I'm not sure a concert film about the biggest band in the world qualifies as a cult film.
