Directed by Alan Parker, this film tells the story of Pink (Bob Geldof), a depressed rock musician whose psychological isolation is figuratively represented by “the wall.”
Against the backdrop of music from Pink Floyd’s album of the same name, this film portrays the descent into personal and creative madness with a shamelessly and richly indulgent melange of live action, animation and dream sequences. In the words of one critic, the film is “visually stunning and disturbing.”
Feb. 3—The Rocky Horror Picture Show

This is a Kamloops Film Society event.Only 200 tickets available, $8 and available at Moviemart (5th and Seymour) or at the door. A $2 annual Kamloops Film Society membership is required for admission.
A satirical low-budget musical comedy that has been entertaining two generations of moviegoers with its madcap send-up of the mad scientist / horror film genre.
Starring the incomparable Tim Curry as the transvestite Dr. Frank N. Furter, Jim Sharman’s film features Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick as a suburban couple who stumble into a weirdly costumed collection of partygoers in a Gothic castle setting. Richard O’Brien’s upbeat songs and the out-of-this-world dance sequences highlight what has been called “the consummate cult classic.”
