For more than 40 years, The Rocky Horror Picture Show has defined what we mean by a ‘cult’ movie, though few can ever hope to match its phenomenal level of ritualised worship. So if you’re looking for more Krampus, look no further than Tubi.Every Saturday night since 1977, cross-gendered disciples in corsets and ripped fishnets have congregated to chant and sing along to The Rocky Horror Picture Show as if attending some gloriously kinky midnight mass.

Out of the film’s premiere at Fantastic Fest, Meagan wrote in her review for BD, “ Derrickson and Cargill revive the same traits and structure of Sinister to transform Hill’s short into a feature-length nightmare full of ghostly kids, violence, and a trio of unforgettable performances.” Ethan Hawke delivers one unforgettably creepy performance as “The Grabber.”Įthan Hawke ( Sinister) and James Ransone ( Sinister, It: Chapter Two) lead the cast, which also includes Jeremy Davies (“Hannibal”), Mason Thames and Madeleine McGraw. And they are dead set on making sure that what happened to them doesn’t happen to Finney.” When a disconnected phone on the wall begins to ring, Finney discovers that he can hear the voices of the killer’s previous victims. “Finney Shaw, a shy but clever 13-year-old boy, is abducted by a sadistic killer and trapped in a soundproof basement where screaming is of little use.
