Beloved Movies That Were Actually Huge Box Office Bombs

‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’

20th Century Fox

Considering its limited initial release, it’s unsurprising that “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” failed to connect with audiences in 1975. The movie played in just one theater, and earned just $20,000 during its first week (on a $1.4 million budget). That said, since this release its theatrical run has never actually finished, as it’s managed to pick up more and more steam, having now earned over $140 million.
