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 Rocky Horror Show. 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: Its groundbreaking and transgressive themes, iconic performances, and epic songs that took over pop culture. The cult phenomenon that sprung around it is unparalleled and created not only the midnight screenings, which continue to this day, but also a haven for those who have ever felt different or marginalized.
