A 1970s St. Louis TV news report about the Rocky Horror phenomenon, featuring absolutely harmless, endearingly dorky college kids getting sneered at by repressed newscasters with helmet hair and crazy Herb Tarlec jackets. But why does that gangly gal around the 1:30 mark seem so familiar? Maybe because that's actually REM's Michael Stipe! (Via Metafilter.)

About This Blog

"Science fiction plucks from within us our deepest fears and hopes, then shows them to us in rough disguise: the monster and the rocket." - W.H. Auden

Who is he, this one who is called "Greg Stacy"?

Greg Stacy began the MONSTERS AND ROCKETS blog in April of 2009. Prior to that, he was editor of the popular sci-fi/horror news website DARKWOLDS.COM. He has also written for LA WEEKLY, OC WEEKLY, UTNE READER and LOS ANGELES CITYBEAT. He always feels weird writing about himself in the third person.
