Richard O’Brien & Linus O’Brien Celebrate Rocky Horror Like Never Before!

Legendary creator Richard O'Brien—the mind behind The Rocky Horror Picture Show—is back in the spotlight alongside his son, filmmaker Linus O'Brien, for the powerful new documentary Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror. Directed by Linus, the film dives deep into the creation, chaos, and cultural explosion of Rocky Horror—from its scrappy stage beginnings to becoming the longest-running theatrical release and a full-blown global movement. What makes this one special? It’s personal. A son telling the story of his father’s creation—one that didn’t just entertain, but gave generations of fans a space to feel seen, weird, and completely themselves. The documentary features voices from icons like Tim Curry and Susan Sarandon while celebrating the fans who turned midnight screenings into a way of life. And at the center of it all is Richard himself—reflecting on how Rocky Horror no longer belongs to him, but to the community that made it a phenomenon. It’s legacy, love, and a little bit of “Time Warp” magic wrapped into one unforgettable ride. For more conversations with legends and the stories behind the art, follow along!
