Time Warp Master Class!

Time Warp Master Class!: Released in 1999, The Rocky Interactive Horror Show was a point and click video game featuring clunky gameplay and graphics that looked dated even by the standards of the time. Reviews were middling, and the title soon fell into obscurity. But while nobody would ever call the game a classic, it did feature a few wonderfully weird treats guaranteed to drive any Rocky Horror fan in-say-yay-yay-yane...

As this collection of clips from the game shows, onscreen narration was provided by none other than classic fright flick star Christopher Lee. (His dramatic recitation of the Time Warp lyrics will surely be the highlight of your Halloween season.) There are also a few clips of Rocky Horror creator Richard O'Brien performing spirited, acoustic versions of hits like Sweet Transvestite (in full drag, of course,) Over at the Frankenstein Place, Super Heroes, Science Fiction Double Feature, and, inevitably, The Time Warp. (And if you can never quite remember if the pelvic thrusts come before or after the jump to the left, don't worry. O'Brien is on hand with the Time Warp Master Class!)
