Wed Apr 30 2025 - 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' wants fans to do the time warp again for its 50th anniversary.

The musical cult classic's half-century milestone will be celebrated with a new 4K Ultra remaster that will be released in theaters and on Blu-ray later this year.

Released in 1975, the movie stars Barry Bostwick and Susan Sarandon as a newly engaged couple who seek help at the castle of gender-bending Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry) when their car breaks down.

Since then, the movie has become famous for its midnight showings and audience participation.

The remastered and restored version will include a new "Rocky Horror" logo, its iconic red lips now featuring a gold top hat inscribed with "50" in red ink.

The 10-month remaster project was overseen by Walt Disney Restoration. "It's a privilege to help preserve the legacy of a film that has meant so much to so many," Restoration & Library Management director Kevin Schaeffer said in a statement Wednesday. "Bringing 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' to life in 4K allows us to honor its bold, genre-defying spirit and ensure that audiences – both longtime fans and first-time viewers – can experience it as it was originally intended, with stunning picture and sound."

Producer Adler added, "When 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' was first released, no one thought it would be around very long, let alone…50 years. What began as a small, rebellious project has become a global celebration of individuality, community, and creative freedom. This anniversary is a tribute to the fans who kept it alive and kicking all these years."
