VHS, 1999 Re-release-
Fox Video, 1184
I'm not sure if this is a new release actually. It was sent to me, claiming to be a new cover/new release. (It could be a rumor, with the image being a scan from the Australia 1996 release above). Can't seem to find it when ordering. But here's the information I have, assuming it's true. New cover, with extreme close up of Cosmo's face (which is used for common covers) but slightly angled. The vibrant red cover has been changed to a burnt red, sort of rust, color. Shock Treatment logo is in yellow, for a change, while "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" (written at top) is white. A "PG" stamp is in the bottom left corner on the cover. Everything else is the same as the 1993 re-release. Somewhat difficult to come by because all video boxes are labeled 1184, and you usually get another cover if special ordered. VALUE: $15 if sealed, $13 if not sealed but in mint condition, $10 if not sealed but in in good/fair condition |

UPDATE: Mad Man Mike recently emailed The Shock Treatment Network and explained the origin of this bootleg CD. Here's an excerpt from his email:
Just looking at your site and wanted to give you the low down on the Bride of Rocky rarites cd that you have in the bootleg section. Well I had made that back in like 1998. on a pioneer cd making machine. Just to fill in the gaps there where 25 copies in all with covers and what not. Sold only at the NYC convention, now as for the reason the tracks sound so bad. is because some where just off the 45s I had. But most of them where taken from back then what where rare bootleg tapes and what not. this was before P2P file sharing and what not. So I just used what I had at the time. of course by today's standards I could get much better sources for it all.This CD, privately produced, features Rocky Horror songs, sung in Japanese. Also in Japanese, is a cover of the song Shock Treatment. Running time of CD, just over 28 minutes. Value: $30Shock Treatment - "Don Mike" Remix - UnknownOriginal remix of the song, assumed to be a fan-made remix. Have only seen on cassette copies, not CDR. Contains dialogue from the film on top of a somewhat longer version of the title track. VALUE: $5Farley Flavors' ChampagneSame "brand" as in the film during "Little Black Dress." Cute idea to have "F" labels made on champagne bottles (which I'm not sure are real champagne or grape juice). I am told that they were "produced" by Shock Treatment fans or a fan club for Shock Treatment. If anyone knows for sure, I would like more details please. (NOTE: I was just informed on where these wonderful items came from [thanks Ruth!]. You can check out the website at http://www.boog.org.) VALUE: $10 if sealed, $8 if notSlidesFrom time to time, you can find slides for Shock Treatment for slide projectors. They were never "officially" made by Fox. These were hand made, most likely for profit, from film cells, and quite often cut directly out of the film or trailer. This is a shame as 35mm film of Shock Treatment is rare, and cutting scenes for profit only makes "bad film slices" when a theater shows the film. Cutting from the 35mm trailer is even more shameful knowing its rarity. VALUE: $2 each slide.Film CellsAgain, it's shameful that anyone purposely cut any film cells from the print or trailer (see "slides" above). However, sometimes a film legitimately breaks, and a movie theater just cuts out the bad break and throws away some damaged (and sometimes undamaged) film cells. It takes 24 frames of film to make one second of movie time. Here are some more examples. VALUE: $1 per frameDuFoeNet INTERVIEW CDRThis is not a CD, but it is a CDR which tries to sound legitimate through advertizing on Rocky Horror sites and eBay. The sound quality is dreadful and there are only 2 tracks related to Richard O'Brien, the second of which is incredibly short. The interview is pretty much boring. The seller recorded it onto a CDR and printed out a very pixillated black and white cover and back for the jewel case. He (or she) sells it at $15 a piece, when the blank CDR probably cost them between 1 to 2 dollars. VALUE: $2.00
Songs From The Vaults - 1990 Ode RecordsFrom the 15th Anniversary Box Set of Rocky Horror. Amongst the goodies inside is an album called "Songs From The Vaults" (available on cassette and compact disc). Features Shock Treatment songs, as well as (Little) Nell Campbell songs. VALUE (either format): $60 for entire box set unopened, or $50 for entire box set (nothing missing) opened. CD or Cassette alone: $15Dr. Demento CD - Rhino RecordsOf course, "Time Warp" is a song easily found on a Dr. Dimento CD compilation. However, if you search hard enough on ebay (or whatever), you'll be surprised to realize that the song "Shock Treatment" was released on compilation PROMOs sent out to radio stations. It is regretful that there is not a compilation with the Shock Treatment song released commercially. Available on compact disc and vinyl. VALUE: $35Lukeski CDThis is a legitimate (not bootleg) CD by a crazy guy named Lukeski (think Weird Al). Has been featured on Dr. Deminto several times, as well as Man Cow. He does many parodies of many songs, including "Rocky Horror," a parody of Insane Clown Possies "House of Horror" which (thanks to wonderful and cute editing) samples the famous Shock Treatment "riff." His CD contains a parody of Mystery Science Theater 2000 sung to the tune of Rocky Horror's Science Fiction Double Feature. A must have for all Rocky and Shock collectors. And it's NOT a CDR, it's a real CD! If you're interested in obtaining this CD, or his first double CD (not mentioned but contains original parodies of Rocky Horror) email Lukeski at lukeski@juno.com or visit his website, www.lukeski.com. VALUE: $10Absolute O'Brien - Oglio Records / Medical Records, OGL 89111-2First album released by Richard under his own name. Very jazzy CD.

Or you can order directly from the record company over the internet (including a bonus poster) at http://www.oglio.com.VALUE: $15 (NOTE: There are promotional items for this CD as well, such as posters. Each promo item is valued at $5)Richard O'Brien single, "Time Warp 2K" - Oglio recordsAlthough this is a "Rocky Horror" item (and I usually don't include Rocky Horror" items) it is included here because it is a Richard O'Brien solo effort. It is a new recording, under his new label, without the RHPS cast helping him. You can get order this updated remix of Time Warp (a CD-maxi single) from his new record label, at http://www.oglio.com. VALUE: $6 in mint condition, $5 in good condition, and $4 in fair condition.Disgracefully Yours, starring Richard O'Brien as Mephistopheles Smith - Bootleg CDRThis CDR was taken from the video transylvania 92 convention.

Most are out of print on video, and they are forced to rent them (and copy them) or buy the ones they can find. Some collectors find copies of TV programs that featured the actors from Shock Treatment. Sometimes, after a good search, they can find actual 35mm film print of these movies, as well as 35mm trailers. Definitely a sign of a hardcore collector.

8-trackIt is possible this exists, as 8-tracks were made all the way up to late 1985.VHS Promotional TrailerThis item was seen recently on eBay, saying it was a VHS video tape, NOT a copy. I didn't win so I am not sure if it is true. Ad claimed that the tape cover (promotional white) had 20th Century Fox copyright on it.Reel to ReelBack in the days of 8-track, another popular format for music playback was reel-to-reel, which came in a special flat box. They stopped making reel-to-reel mid-1982, so I'm not sure if Shock Treatment was ever made that way.8mm printMost home "cam-corders" in the "old" days were 8-millimeter film ran on 8mm projectors. Some feature films were released this way. Most "popular" ones were not. Although they initially stopped making 8mm movies around 1981, ever so often a film is released on this format, usually as a novelty. In 1982, around the time Shock Treatment was released, the movie "Secret of Nimh" was released on 8mm film. Most recently, in 1991, movie "Madonna - Truth or Dare" was released on 8mm film. So the possibility exists that our favorite cult film was released this way too.8mm trailerDitto on the trailer (see 8mm film, as well as "trailer" sections on this page).Promo CDIt seems only logical that if they released "promotion only" copies of the vinyl soundtrack, and singles, why not the CD?Promo VHS...and why not the video? (see Promo CD)Press BookPress books are stapled books (like magazines) that feature nothing but ads for a movie coming out. They are sent out to theaters and newspapers for printing ads on the movies. The ads are all different sizes and shapes, and often contain production notes. They even made a press book for Rocky Horror. Although I am told they don't use press books anymore, there's still the possibility that there was one made and distributed for Shock Treatment.Movie DiscBack in the late '70s through the mid '80s, there was a format to watch movies called "Movie Disc" which was very similar to what we now call "laserdisc." The large "disc," however, was inside a thick and heavy plastic sleeve (for protection), and you put the entire sleeve (with disc inside) INTO the movie disc player. The player removed the disc for you, allowing you to remove the sleeve and replace it when finished watching the movie. One of the most recent movie discs was "Empire Strikes Back" which came out after Shock Treatment. And CBS / Fox released quite a number of them, particularly titles that were not successful at theaters. Therefore, it is highly possible that a movie disc for Shock Treatment exists.
