On this weeks episode of A Place For Film, I do my best to give you the short version of the history of the midnight movie in honor of the IU Cinema's "Not-Quite Midnights". How it came to be, how it evolved, how it went mainstream and how it (sadly) ended. I also admit on air that I've never been to a Rocky Horror Picture Show screening in my 31 years of life and ask you to be cool about it (or invite me to a screening).
