Come to the lab, and see what's on the slab! This notorious horror parody -- a fast-paced potpourri of camp, sci-fi and rock 'n' roll, among other things -- tracks the exploits of naïve couple Brad and Janet (Barry Bostwick & Susan Sarandon) after they stumble across the lair of transvestite vampire Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry).
Do you have a skiing or snowboarding problem? Do you always have to take "just one more" run? Do you sneak around your partner to get your powder fix? Can you ride your local hill with your eyes closed? Backward? If you have answered "yes" to any of these questions...it may be time for a Wintervention.
Join host, Jonny Moseley, as he explores the challenges of the snow-dicted & gets you the help you need from boards-certified riders & the most trusted names in ripping -- people like Chris Davenport, JJ Thomas, Lindsey Vonn, and Hugo Harrison.
