I picked up a DVD copy of the original Rocky Horror Picture Show (the one with Tim Curry) from a local thrift store a while back. The DVD appears to be from 2002, and is a re-print including the U.S. version, the U.K. version, a theatrical version, and some bonus features.

Being in the spooky spirit, my friends and I recently decided to boot up the film. Before starting the film, we were curious about the bonus features, and found that there is DVD-ROM content (listed as "Games, Trivia, and More!"). I checked the Internet Archive and YouTube, and none of this DVD-ROM content has ever been archived.

I would love to open and close the book on this newfound lost media, and view/archive the content, but I do not have a computer with DVD-ROM capability.

Does anyone on this forum have access to such features or know how I could go about getting them?

I'm sure it's possible.

Update: I do have USB capacity on my computer, so a DVD-to-USB drive should be on its way shortly!

That being said, once I have the drive, what is the best way to download the raw files so that any games/ROM content can be played/viewed to their fullest on the Internet Archive? I'm sure I'll know more about exactly what we're dealing with once I can view the contents of the bonus features, but I want to make sure that I have the right information to handle and archive these files properly before I start. This is my first major find and I'm not the strongest with computers.

Make a .iso of the disc with ImgBurn, that way anyone can mount or burn a copy.

Hello. I haven't used the forums before so please forgive me if I am using it incorrectly. I am a Rocky Horror fan and recently got this same DVD. I have a DVD player that is DVD-ROM compatible. I've desperately tried to figure out how to play the DVD-ROM games ( Riff Raff's Story Lab and Masochistic Trivia Challenge ), as well as check out the other bonus features like the wallpapers, but I cannot access them when looking in the files. This is because they require Adobe Shockwave or Flash Player.

I've tried opening them with Flash Player and Shockwave emulators / extensions such as Ruffle and Flash Player Emulator 2024, but the "Adobe Flash Player is no longer supported" error message still pops up in Google. This happens with the Rocky Horror files even though the extensions seem to work for other Flash things like the flash player test website.

I am here to ask if any of you have had any progress on this situation and happen to have any idea how I could play these files, or if you have any videos of them.
Thank you. Let me know if you have any questions for me

Good to have you! You're using the forums correctly.

There might be a compatibility issue with the disc contents. The emulators are not perfectly accurate.

Shockwave and Flash are two different programs. What is the full file name of the file you are trying to open? (File.ext for example)

"Weekend? It's Monday already."
