Who knows why the ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW is so intimately linked with Halloween? Maybe it's the Frankenstein spoof, the meat cleaver, the touch of cannabilism. Maybe it's aliens from outer space. You take your pick--there are many layers to peel back before you discover the heart of this cult classic. That's why folks come back again, and again, and again. For many, ROCKY HORROR is what makes Halloween their favorite holiday of the year.

Whether you're a veteran or a newbie, where better to see ROCKY HORROR during the Halloween season than at the LONGEST, CONTINUOUSLY RUNNING WEEKLY SHOW IN THE WORLD (39 years and counting)? Yep, you heard that right--39 years and counting.

"I first saw Rocky Horror when I was 9 years old, and it blew my mind and changed my life. I made my mom take me and my 6 year old sister to see it in West Hollywood, bless her heart. They called all the virgins on stage, so we went. "Do you want to get me arrested, kid? Sit back down." As a freshman at Reed, I took my dorm mates to see it for their first time. So glad for your uninterrupted commitment to educating today's youth." Nili Yosha

Journalist, author, activist David Barsamian radically altered the Media Landscape when he invented Alternative Radio nearly 30 years ago. Great thinkers like Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Angela Davis, Arundhati Roy, Vandana Shiva, Tariq Ali, Edward Said and many more have been widely broadcasted for the first time through the media work of Barsamian's radio programs.

He'll be reflecting on the core issues at stake today, and why are so many people from such a range of identities and perspectives challenging the administration.

Celebrate the holiday season with this touching anime film from Satoshi Kon.

One of the most moving, enjoyable and wholly unconventional Christmas stories to come along in a long time. -- Gary Dowell, Dallas Morning News

In one sense the plot involves returning stolen goods to a thief, but Tokyo Godfathers is really about longing -- for family, for children, for parents and for the lost past. -- Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

Demonstrates an idiosyncratic human touch. Kon is unafraid of the unseemly and unsightly. -- Wesley Morris, Boston Globe
