What Justin says you should do for Halloween

Let your Inner Crossdresser Come Outto Play:

The Rocky Horror Picture Show Loews Harvard Square 10 Church St., Cambridge Showtime: 10 p.m. (617) 864 – 4580

Tired of spending Halloween with a bunch of straight-laced, conservative, Republican prudes? Fear not, my little transsexual transvestites! It’s just a jump to the left and then a step to the right to get to the “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” that dressed-up, camped-out love-letter to schlocky ’50s B-movies, pansexual ethos and Faye Raye. Break out the fishnets and corsets, and dress up as your favorite character. Be forewarned, though — “Rocky Horror” fans make Trekkies look tame, and all virgins to the live experience will be forced to participate. That’s all I’m saying.

Gather Ye Round Father Halloween:

Alice Cooper Orpheum Theatre 1 Hamilton Place, Boston (617) 931 – 2000

What better way to pass the haunted hours away than with everyone’s favorite rock ghoul of yesteryear? Older than you’d think, a little slower and bloated, Cooper still manages to rock. Well, his die-hard fans think he still rocks. No matter — this geriatric demon is practically the godfather of Halloween-esque antics. Everyone takes a back seat to Alice when he unleashes the dark and sinister side of his personality. When’s the last time you saw anyone else chopping up babies with an axe? Or defiling a deceased dame in front of an open fridge?” Yum.

Sleepover Games, Redux:

You may not have believed in those ridiculously lame sleepover activities in middle school, but light some candles, turn out the lights and try them now — you’ll be surprised by the results. Skip “Light as a feather, stiff as a board” and “Bloody Mary” and rush right into Ouija. Sure, Milton Bradley is the manufacturer. Sure, you think your best friend is moving the dial with her hands. Close your eyes, give it a few minutes, and you may just be communicating with a dead relative or pet.

The Devil Made Me Do It:

Those Lean Cuisine meals and Weight Watchers points you’ve been watching meticulously seem easily — disposed of when considering the sinful goodness of a Snickers, Three Musketeers or Kit-Kat Bar. Don’t give in. The half-priced candy at CVS or CampCo may seem tempting, but it has been sent straight from the devil.
