Tis the season for Hollywood to destroy cult classics and popular films from the 80s. A Beverly Hill Cop sequel is in the works, Robocop remake is confirmed, and a Point Break sequel is rumored. Today MTV announced they will be doing a remake of the 1975 cult classic THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW.
Lou Adler, the original executive producer, teamed up with Fox Television Studios to take on the remake. Adler stated, “I’d like to see it shown a year from this coming Halloween, but that’s up to MTV.”
They will be sticking to the original screenplay, but the upgrade may include new music not from the original. No release date has be confirmed.
