New Zealand's Riff Raff statue

Tuesday, September 7, 2010

Rocky Horror creator Richard O'Brien grew up in Hamilton, New Zealand, and in 2004 the town honored its favorite son with a pretty snazzy statue of Riff Raff, O'Brien's Rocky Horror Picture Show character. This site is all about the statue, and includes a gallery of concept designs by artists from WETA, the NZ special effects company that worked on the Lord of the Rings movies.

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.
