Rocky Horror by Mick Rock
$90.00 Inc GST
THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW– Richard O’Brien’s tribute to B-movie sci-fi, campness and sexual fluidity – is one of the most beloved and revered cult films ever made. Its ‘don’t dream it, be it’ ethos has since made the movie the longest theatrical release in film history, grossing more than $225 million over nearly five decades.
In 1973, photographer Mick Rock was making his name shooting rock acts like David Bowie, Queen and Lou Reed, and was invited by director Jim Sharman to be the film’s official photographer. Given absolute freedom, not only did Mick shoot rare images of the filming process, but he also captured candid and unique shots of the cast and crew, who were together for only a few weeks.
Released to coincide with the film’s 50th anniversary, Mick Rock’s Rocky Horror is the story of wild, hedonistic, riotous fun packed with never-before-seen images, beautifully packaged in a full-colour coffee-table volume that’s perfect for any fan.
