Description

Get your fishnets and stockings ready for a night of debauchery onboard the Belfast Barge as the Dark Hedges Film Festival hosts a screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show & Shock Treatment on Halloween night!

In The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975), newly engaged couple Brad and Janet (Barry Bostwick & Susan Sarandon) end up at the castle of Dr Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry) after their car breaks down. It just so happens on this wet and stormy night the self-proclaimed ‘sweet transvestite from Transsexual, Transylvania’ is hosting a party to celebrate the unveiling of his latest creation, a muscular Adonis called Rocky, the perfect male specimen who will bring him absolute pleasure.

As the evening goes on our two straight-faced lovebirds have their eyes are opened to a world of kink and perverted pleasure they never knew existed.

In Shock Treatment (1981), released six years after Jim Sharman’s original, Brad and Janet (now portrayed by Cliff De Young and Jessica Harper), head to Denton to take part in a game show on DTV. They find the town has been taken over by the television company and its primary sponsor, fast food company Farley Flavours. The couple soon find themselves held captive at the request of Farley’s mysterious CEO

Sharman’s follow-up might not have gained the same cult status as its predecessor, but in recent years it’s been re-evaluated and praised by critics for its views on celebrity culture and reality television.

On the night there’ll be props on hand to help get our audience in the mood for the time warp and fancy dress is encouraged as local cosplayers Joanne Alexander (HedgeScout) and Gabrielle Riddiough (Wishmamma) will be on hand to judge the best dressed during the intermission between the two films, don’t worry they won’t bite, well not unless you want them to!
