How to Watch The Rocky Horror Picture Show

This year, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, the iconic cult classic horror musical, celebrates 45 years of midnight screenings (okay, 46 years since opening, but the midnight screenings are what made it a cult classic). Part camp, part horror, all delightfully ridiculous, the film is about a naive and uptight couple who find themselves dumped on the doorstep of a creepy castle, and wackiness (including murder, aliens, and bisexuality) ensues. Read on for how to watch The Rocky Horror Picture Show without cable.

About The Rocky Horror Picture Show

While initially a flop, The Rocky Horror Picture Show was made legendary over the years with interactive midnight screenings (don’t forget your toast, rice, and toilet paper). The film, which starred among its cast Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, and Meat Loaf, is a wild ride from the moment the poor stranded Janet and Brad walk through the doors of Dr. Frank N. Furter’s creepy old mansion. As the night goes from weird to unexplainable, the musical journey includes wacky nighttime antics, animating a body, murder, and transexual aliens. Plus, the group dance number “The Time Warp.”
