… It’s a beast of a cult film,” said the publisher of Cult Movies magazine, who goes by the single name Schroeder. “I get e-mails every day asking about it. The fan base just continues to grow. There’s nothing good about the movie, but when you put all its bad elements together — the bad lighting, the horrible acting, the continuity — it’s just so comical that you become so engrossed with it that it forces you to like it.
“That’s what a true cult flick is. And there’s been very few films out there that have generated such intense audience participation.”
“The Rocky Horror Picture Show” is the godfather of cult films and a pioneer in the midnight movie genre. Zealous admirers of the 1975 musical comedy go to screenings in flamboyant attire; throw toast, water, toilet paper and rice at appropriate points; and shout responses at the screen.
At Lebowski Fests, fans of the 1998 Coen brothers film “The Big Lebowski” arrive in their finest bowling attire. “Showgirls,” the 1995 drama about Vegas strippers and dancers, is also on the midnight circuit. Followers mimic dance moves from the box-office flop when they’re not shouting lines at the screen.

Vampiros en La Habana…La Pequena Habana, That Is!
Fri., Oct. 30 2009 @ 11:30AM
Well, it’s that special time of year kiddies, when real kiddies get to go door to door yelling “trick or treat!” and collecting candy, most of which their grandmothers will warn, “esta envenenado” (”it’s poisoned”). Meanwhile, grownup kiddies get to dress like strippers and dipshits (I managed both at once two years ago with “guy out of the shower”, donning only a towel and shower cap) and get drunk while reveling and celebrating the birth of Candy Corn. It’s all good wholesome fun, truly. And if you don’t believe me, then why did they make an awesome Peanut’s special for it?
Giving you one more reason to love it while simultaneously providing a damned good place for drunken revelry and celebration of the birth of Candy Corn, Spam Allstars and Hoy Como Ayer. This Halloween, come party in true Miami style down on la Calle Ocho at Vampiros en La Habana, named …

More immigrants cite sexual orientation for asylum
By RUSSELL CONTRERAS, Associated Press
WORCESTER, Mass. — For weeks, Nathaniel Cunningham and his boyfriend secretly lived together in rural Jamaica. They showed no affection in public and rarely spoke to neighbors.
Then one morning, Cunningham picked up a local newspaper with a front-page story under the headline, “Homosexual Prostitutes Move into Residential Neighborhood.” His address was listed below.
For days afterward, Cunningham said an angry mob gathered on his lawn hurling rocks and bricks and calling them “batty boys” – a Jamaican slang term for gay. Eventually, the pair grabbed what they could and fled on foot. Cunningham said neither he nor his boyfriend were prostitutes – the slur was just another example of the abuse gay men faced in Jamaica.
The story was one of many that Cunningham, now 32 and living in Worcester, recently shared with a federal immigration judge in his successful bid to win asylum in the United States. And it’s similar to other stori …
