The Rocky Horror Picture Show by Jeffrey Weinstock
Within just a few years, The Rocky Horror Picture Show grew from an oddball musical to a celebrated cinematic experience of midnight features and outrageous audience participation. This study tells the extraordinary story of the film from initial reception to eventual cult status. Uncovering the film's non-conformist sexual politics and glam-rock attitude, this volume explores its emphasis on the theatrical body (tattooed, cross-gendered, flamboyant), and its defiant queering of cinema history.Jeffrey Weinstock is a Central Michigan University professor of American literature and culture. He is an editor for The Journal of the Weird in the Arts and the author of The Rocky Horror Picture Show (2007) and Fear Tactics: Spooky Fiction by American Women (2008).
