"The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Surviving the Experience"

An article published in Memorial University’s student newspaper the Muse, written by Robert Stoodley, about attending a screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The article discusses the do’ and don'ts of attending a screening of the film, starting off with a guide for beginners, or “Basic Horrorology.” Stoodley breaks down what to bring to the show, when to use which props, how to dance along and enjoy the screening with others, as well as a timeline of what to expect. The article goes on to discuss suggestions of essential equipment and what to do with it for folks who have been to screenings of the film before, called “Advanced Horrorology, as well as for well seasoned participants, called “Graduate Level Horrorology”.
