Rocky Horry Picture Show One of the greatest and freakiest cult classics, the Rocky Horror Picture Show has been attracting freaks and geeks to midnight showings since they began in 1976.  The rock musical spoofs the B-grade sci-fi movies of decades past, creating its own C-grade movie masterpiece.  Movie patrons attend midnight showings dressed as the freaky characters, acting out scenes from the film, responding to the movies dialogue with scripted responses that have become inseparable from the regular story (Brad’s an asshole and Janet’s a slut). 

When someone attends a Rocky Horror midnight showing for the first time, they must be deflowered in front of the audience, often with some harmless on-stage participation (that does not always lead to nakedness…only if you’re lucky).  This is one Geek-Out Moment that thankfully, everyone can enjoy.  So check out your local theaters and run, don’t walk to the next showing.  Unless you’re wearing high heels.  Take a taxi, those things hurt.
