But I expect that's just me.

Now, THAT could actually happen, and I'd fly out to LA to see it.

The fairly recent Broadway revival of The Rocky Horror Show found ways to distinguish itself from the movie, and I'm sure a legit alternate vision of the material could be committed to film. But it doesn't really sound like that's what they're after here. I'd far rather they film the unproduced ROCKY HORROR SHOWS AGAIN, for which Ritz O'Brien has already written songs and written several screenplay drafts.
