As some of you may know, we tend to open our fall midnight movie series on labor day weekend. This way we get three nights to show the film, usually a perennial favorite either of the "I haven't seen this movie since I was 12 yet I can still quote every line," or the " Remember when we used to get high and watch this constantly in my dorm room?" variety. Problem is, labor day happens to fall on the last weekend of August (about three people just gasped in shock and horror. The rest of you please read on). The last Saturday of August, as with the last Saturday of every month, belongs to "The Rocky Horror Picture Show."

Being the only venue for this stalwart of midnight moviedom (yeah I'm well aware it's not a real word, but thanks anyway , spell check), there was no way we could do the public such a grave disservice as denying them this monthly Rocky fix. There is of course the problem of the two midnight movie-less Friday and Sunday nights. If by problem you mean excellent opportunity to have an excitingly bold and undeniably ill-advised all out three film shadow cast extravaganza with the Bawdy Caste. The Caste, upon returning from there annual adventure to the wilds of Reno, will not only have their usual task of shadowing "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" on Saturday, but also Leading a Sing-a-long to "Grease" on Sunday, and on Friday a tribute to the film that is Rocky's only really real challenger for midnight movie cult supremacy: "Hedwig and the Angry Inch."

There's been a lot of questions about this, so let's clear them up: this is not a sort-of sing-along, with lyrics handouts or home-made supertitles-- this is the real deal. We assure you, the lyrics WILL BE RIGHT UP THERE ON THE BIG SCREEN! And we won't be policing the crowd or anything to make sure you're singing, but don't you think you really should be singing? Everybody else is singing, aren't they? You're awfully quiet just sitting there like a bump on a log...

 Grease is a sort-of 1978 Rock n Roll high School musical where Danny Zuko (John Travolta) and Sandy Dee (Olivia Newton John) are faced with the challenges of being cool and staying in love. When this couple originally meets they fall in love over Summer Break. At the end of the summer they part ways and believe that they will never see each other again. When Danny arrives at school in the fall, his reputation as a badass is at stake when he finds out his square of a girlfriend Sandra Dee is also attending the same school.
