There's an old movie with some kind of audience participation culture where people dress up and yell during movies but I can't remember what it is. I think they have annual showings in some independent movie theatres. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

There's a few. Rocky Horror Picture Show is probably the one you're thinking of though.

I went to an interactive showing a few years ago and had a blast.

Some people in the audience did a whole call and response thing with the narrator which was a lot of fun.

Thanks! I'll have to look for a place that does showings near my place!

Maybe the Rocky Horror Picture Show: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rocky_Horror_Picture_Show

Seems to be one of those love it or hate it movies, but worth a watch at least once.

That's the one! I had heard about it in Stuff You Should Know years ago and couldn't remember the title for the life of me. Thank you!
