to Rocky Horror Pod Show
Introduced by Cashiers du Cinemart creator Mike White.
Picking up a few months after The Rocky Horror Picture Show left off,
we find Brad (Cliff De Young) and Janet (Jessica Harper) an unsettled
married couple who become trapped in the television world of Farley
Flavors (also De Young) in a Denton television station. Predating
Reality TV by two decades, Shock Treatment reunites much of the Rocky
Horror cast in another musical with songs by original composer Richard
O'Brien. Originally castigated as a poor follow-up to Rocky Horror,
Shock Treatment deserves a second chance.
Often confused with the ginger director, Mike White is creator and
editor of Cashiers du Cinemart magazine, the best of which has been
collected for the newly released book Impossibly Funky. White's
magazine ran since 1994 and covered overlooked cinematic gems. He'll
introduce the films and take questions after the screening.
Director: Jim Sharman. 94 min. 1981. 35mm.
Also screening tonight at 7:45pm: Miami Blues.
Date & Time: Fri, May 27, 2011, 10:00pm
Location: 92YTribeca, 200 Hudson Street Directions
Venue: 92YTribeca Screening Room
Code: T-MM5FM26-01
Price: $12.00
