—————————-
Tremble is a unique horror movie podcast that explores the different sub-genres of horror to find the best that horror has to offer.
This episode gets wild and musical as the Tremble crew dives into The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Kurt, Taylor, Steve, and special guest Kaz Wheeler explore how this cult classic blurs the line between horror, comedy, and glam rock musical excess. They talk about Tim Curry’s magnetic performance as Dr. Frank-N-Furter, the film’s chaotic structure, its iconic songs, and why it remains a midnight movie institution decades later.
From first-time reactions to nostalgic love, the group weighs in on the movie’s strange charm, its cultural impact, and how the theatrical experience at places like Vancouver’s Rio Theatre keeps its legacy alive. They also debate whether this film marks peak Tim Curry, reminisce about Muppet Treasure Island, and laugh through tales of questionable family movie nights. Expect riffs on the film’s best lines, weirdest moments, and a shared appreciation for Susan Sarandon’s underrated performance.
