i am watching the john walsh show, late night tv and in the background. some people went to kenya and somehow they wound up doing the time warp from the rocky horror picture show, for national georgraphic channel.
they were out in front of this tribe and teaching the the time warp. not sure why but thought it was funny. now if they can get tim curry in drag again that would be great. hell i would fly to kenya to see it.
now i am going to have to watch the rocky horror picture show tonight. i know the tape is nothing compaired to in a theater but they dont show it here anymore.

INCOGNITO on it .............along with black shoes and black socks and

i remember the first time i saw it. when everyone started doing the time warp i was like "what the heck is going on?" but by the time the end credits rolled i was hooked. we use to go and see it every week end. i never got to see it in live theater mode but once a month they would act it out in front of the screen. through out the year about 30-40% of the audience would glam up a bit, but on halloween everyone did. that time was real fun.

I remember that too ..........I never had to go up stage in front of

deliberately answer the question wrong so they could do that.
There was one time they had about 15 people answer the ? wrong ..........
so they had a line dane of the Time Warp on stage .........it was soooooo

We had what was probably the most beautiful movie theatre in the state. Chandeliers, you name it. Biggest screen I'd ever seen except for IMAX which came later.
And then Rocky Horror came to town. Ran for months, every night at midnight (sadly, I never went, really wish I hadn't missed it). By the end of the run, the screen was destroyed and the theatre in shambles. I don't think they ever really recovered. It closed about a year later.
I finally got to see it on TV, but I know it's not the same. When ST IV hit the theatres it was like a roller coaster ride in the audience as we waited for the film to start. Maybe that was kinda what Rocky Horror was like(?)
I think it's neat when stuff like that come out and people just have fun socially without all the "invisible barrier" nonsense. We as a society need more events like that to realize how much fun it is just to be alive, and be happy we have others to share that joy with.

I haven't seen ST IV. but it's fun because it's full audience participation they the audience as a group yell out certain lines back at the screen , they throw stuff in the air in unison (like when they say here is a toast everyone throws toast in the air, the other items were deck of cards, noise makers, squirt guns, party hats, newspapers, and rice) they are all dressed as their favorite character, and then they have a bunch of people on stage in front of the screen acting out the whole movie, it's quite something to see, a real bonding fest, for fans.:D

February 26th, 2004, 12:04 PM
Yes Gaelen, the theatre closed in part due to the damage from RHPS. They were already hurting financially cuz back in those days theatres had to /bid/ for the good films, and if they didn't have considerable financial backing like Syufy and AMC, they simply didn't have a chance to get any good films.
RHPS was both good and bad for them. Yes it gave them a good steady audience, but they never expected the theatre-goers to trash the place. I went one time after RHPS and was so sad to see the damage. They simply couldn't afford to fix it so they closed. *Sigh* So sad for me cuz I had great childhood memories of that place...

as for the curse of the rhps, the theater i use to go and see it was changed from a movie house to a music house. it is a place by the gates of LSU called the varsity. here is the url for the varsity home page, http://www.varsitytheatre.com
it is still a fun place to go. i have not been there in a long while. i dont know how long it was before they switched from movies to music but it was close. maybe there is some base to this curse.

I'm just a sweet transvestite
From Transsexual Transylvania

I've been makin' a man
With blonde hair and a tan
And he's good for relievin'
My tension.
I had this friend who was about 6'2" and might have weighed 140 (tall & gawky). He had SHOCKINGLY red hair and only one front tooth. That's right, one tooth. He wasn't missing one, he just had one unnaturally wide tooth where two should have been. He was from West Virginia (I SWEAR that this is a true story!) and he used to sing that song... in the barracks... in front of any sergeant who happened to be passing by... and he was surprised when they sent him for a psych eval!
I used to tease him that his family tree must look like a telephone pole. ;)
