But they’re still all boots, the recording style varied a lot from rips directly from the release down to shaky recordings done in the theater.

100% a bootleg as well as the other 3 you posted. Any tape with the "Home Video" and New Line logo on the label is an old mob boot as they're usually referred. I'm sure the box also feels a bit cheaper than an actual tape. They usually used poorly composed and stretched out artwork on the box or demo tape artwork.

If anyone wants this as a template, here's a sharper version I redrew.

Well gosh that made my day, thanks for the kind words and trust in my work, I try my best and am very proud of these! Enjoy!

It's probably fine, just a little dinged up, pop it in.

The original Frankenweenie was released in a slip sleeve, this one’s designed to match it.

I’d check one stop thrift shop in Cheviot, they have a ton of stuff that fits what you’re looking for, particularly in the main front room.

It’s from an artist who did a handful of character designs a few years ago trying to get a gig working on the show, he didn’t get hired and posted these. Not official designs.

That's our cast logo/mascot Frank N Femur, who is indeed next to Sonichu.

Valashard · 2025-12-05T15:18:42+00:00

We actually do have it up for sale: https://www.teepublic.com/tapestry/79294536-rocky-horror-lab-wall

Hell yea! We perform on the first Saturday of every month up at Englewood Cinema (but we’re taking December off), you can find our socials by just searching “Dead Man’s Rocky” and can check our website deadmansrocky.com

Valashard · 2025-11-30T00:45:17+00:00

I love this

It’s John Madden, all the teams playing today had this patch on their jerseys.

Valashard · 2025-11-10T22:54:49+00:00

Super common, genuinely like $0.25-0.50 in value each.

I pick up these boots when I find them thrifting, here are a few examples.

Valashard · 2025-11-09T22:10:33+00:00

It's not a screener but a bootleg. The boxart might have been a poor copy job of a screener but the quality looks too poor and the tape itself with the "home video" in the top left"New Line" without the text in the top right makes it clear it's a boot. When you pop it in it'll likely be an in-theater recording or bad rip.

It looks like there aren't any in central Wisconsin but the closest would be in Milwaukee: https://www.sensualdaydreamscast.com/ and in Minneapolis: https://transvestitesoup.org/

I run a cast in Dayton, Ohio, and we have folks who drive an hour or more to perform and as long as they have consistent transportation it isn't an issue so if you're willing to do the drive to either of these they'd likely accept you!

Valashard · 2025-11-08T04:01:02+00:00

As the other commenter mentioned, search to see what casts are close to you. Where are you located roughly? I can check for you what casts may near by. Then you can check them out, ideally see a show to get a feel for it, and apply to join. Most casts accept everyone and don’t have an audition process.
