Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror

Lovers of Rocky Horror, whether slvts or virgins, will love this movie. Made by Rocky creator Richard O'Brien's son Linus, it lovingly traces the creation of Rocky, both stage show and movie, the cult that has grown around them, and Richard's own gender journey. Many facts about both will surprise you. I didn't know what a flop the movie first was before its audience found it, or that hostility between LA and NY contributed to that. Linus interviews the main movie cast members, who have aged at very different rates since 1975, and significant others who either have useful comments on the movie, such as a gender studies professor, or whose own gender journeys were affected by it, such as Trixie Mattel and (surprise) Jack Black. But the heart of the movie is O'Brien Sr, whose own commentary 50 years on is insightful, and who plays and sings some of the songs as he originally wrote them.
