On October 20th, Movie Addict Headquarters celebrates the 40th Anniversary of The Rocky Horror Picture Show with a special tribute to that bizarre cult musical, and just in time for Halloween! The episode features cast member Barry Bostwick reminiscing about his experiences connected with the film -- including weather problems, what it was like working with Susan Sarandon, his favorite scene in the movie, and much more.

Surprisingly, Rocky Horror bombed when it first opened in 1975, but those entertaining midnight showings soon catapulted the film into cult status. The outrageous movie makes fun of B-movies, science-fiction and horror films from the 1940s through the 1970s. Adapted from the British rock musical written by Richard O’Brien, the film was directed by Jim Sharman -- and Tim Curry made his dynamic screen debut as the flamboyant transvestite, Dr. Frank-N-Furter. Bostwick and Susan Sarandon play an innocent couple who stumble into the Doctor’s Annual Transylvania Convention, with shocking results for everyone involved.  

Bostwick has appeared in over 100 films and television productions. He’s a triple-threat entertainer -- singer, dancer, actor -- who created the role of Danny Zuko in Grease on Broadway and won a Tony for his work in The Robber Bridegroom. He’s appeared in such TV programs as Spin City, Cougar Town, Glee, Scrubs, Law & Order Special Victims Unit, Las Vegas, George Washington, and War and Remembrance (for which he earned a Golden Globe). Among Bostwick’s numerous movies are: Movie Movie; 101 Dalmatians II; Spy Hard; Some Guy Who Kills People; and FDR: American Badass.  

“The Rocky Horror Picture Show 40^th Anniversary” airs on BlogTalkRadio at 4 p.m. Eastern Time (1 p.m. Pacific Time) on Tuesday, October 20, 2015. During the live show, listeners are invited to participate in a chat. An archived segment will also be available.
