Yep..you read that correctly..2016...

A remake....for tv....thanks FOX

Fox's ROCKY HORROR also stars Orange is the New Black's Laverne Cox as Dr. Frank-N-Furter. Directed and choreographed by Kenny Ortega, the fall 2016 premiere is hanging like a Sword of Damocles over our heads.

I do like the original but will give this a shot. Who knows it might be decent.

Worst idea ever.

It's not so much the film I love and have fond memories of but the crazy times my friends and I had at several midnight showings. Started going when I was a senior in high school in 82 and there would be a ton of people there (many in full costume). Bringing rice, toast, and all that other crap...throwing it at the screen and all over the place. Holy shit I would have quit my job if I was the one who had to clean all that up! I do dig parts of the film, a couple songs, but it's definitely draggy (har!) in spots.

This is a horrible idea and I'm sure it'll die a quick death if it even makes it to the air. I mean really, that must be some damn good crack if some suit thought this was a killer idea. WTF?

I'll give the first episode a watch but... I'm not expecting anything more than a half assed tribute.

Adam Lambert is Meat Loaf

Lambert will play Eddie, the rock 'n'roll-loving ex-delivery boy who emerges at Dr. Frank-N-Furter's on a motorcycle and crashes the party. The role was played by Meat Loaf in the original.

I'm surprised he's still working after his stroke. He's just not the same.
