Oh wait, is Dr Frank-N-Furter now officially a Disney princess?

Worth a blind buy?

An old article (and an ugly web page) about the audio differences.

If you're funny and interesting and handsome and smell nice, then you'll love Rocky Horror.

If you want to see how Disney is handling 20th 4K restorations/remasters, Planet of the Apes (1968) was done by Disney. As was Napolean Dynamite and Ever After. All three are wonderfully handled, Apes looks great with grain & proper fleshtones.

I was Frank-N-Furter several times. Brad a few times. 'Twas fun.

I ran a shadow cast between 95-97 and then I played Riff in live stage productions in 2005 and again in 09. Needless to say Rocky Horror has been a big part of my life since I was old enough to go in 89.

Fingers crossed they at least include the full version with Superheroes...I think that was the UK cut, yeah?

Cvalda · 04-30-2025, 04:32 PM

Finally! This will look beautiful in 4K if it's been properly handled, the Blu-ray is still one of the loveliest, most filmic Blu-rays barring the missing color tints. Here's hoping the original theatrical track is lossless and the inevitable Atomos mix has the proper vocal takes this time.

A disney 4K of Rocky Horror with new Atmos AND original mono?

starmike · 04-30-2025, 04:43 PM

What blu-rays had the UK version?

The 40th had it

Since this is Fox maybe it won't be steelbook only, they're killing me with those prices and this is one I definitely will want. Never thought Disney would care about this one.

I only have the 35th. I'll see if the 4K gets the UK version. Thanks.

Cvalda · 04-30-2025, 04:49 PM

All the Blu-rays have the UK version. They are all the same disc.

starmike · 04-30-2025, 04:55 PM

OK, I just checked my disc and yes, it's there, but maybe I'm misremembering - when I saw it YEARS ago (and I saw it weekly back then), "Time Warp" played over the end credits and not SF/DF. Which version was that?
