The article highlights that The Rocky Horror Picture Show is celebrating its 50th anniversary, having run continuously in theaters for five decades, excluding a brief pandemic interruption. Originally a successful off-Broadway musical, the film initially flopped upon its 1975 release due to marketing challenges for its sexually free and queer themes. However, it found new life as a midnight movie, attracting a cult following of outcasts and party-goers worldwide. A recent CBS Sunday Morning segment featured original cast members like Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, and Tim Curry, with Curry giving a rare interview about his character's lasting impact. The film's themes of escapism and sexual identity are considered more relevant than ever today. The Rocky Horror Picture Show continues to play at midnight screenings and will be released on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray on October 7.
