* The Rocky Horror Picture Show (Sony Harvard Square Cinema, 12 a.m. $7.75).

"It looks like Halloween all the time" at Sony Harvard Square's weekly midnight showing of the cult horror flick, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," says Seth P. Nickinson '00.

But for an intrepid trick-or-treater not content watching the usual strange people floating around the Square, Rocky Horror is certainly the place to watch people doing really strange things.

"On Halloween they really go all out," says employee Jay Morong, describing the people who come to the theater dressed as characters in the movie.

Manager Lisa Richter notes that since there is generally a bigger crowd on Halloween, the show will feature a longer pre-act show (in which a volunteer theater troupe acts out parts of the movie) as well as a live band.

Four Fried Nose Rings (Cambridge locals top Harvard students in the weirdness department.)

Also around campus:

* "Funereal & Spooky Music." (Sanders Theatre, Tonight, 7:30 p.m. $8 students)

Yes, even the Harvard-Radcliffe Collegium Musicum is getting spooky.

Three Fried Nose Rings (Classical music can be scary.)

* "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (Tonight and Tomorrow, 8 and 10 p.m., Science Center C. $3).

Five Fried Nose Rings (This is a really scary movie.)

In Boston

What Harvard lacks in spookiness, Boston lacks in creativity. Sure, there are a few happenings throughout the week, but you'll be hard-pressed to find any truly hair-raising experiences (besides the standard ones) in Beantown tonight.

* Boston Clubs. Clubs may pretend to have spooky Halloween specials, but don't be fooled. For instance, one club definitely loses scary potential when its corny advertising ploy is to name its D.J.s "the two biggest ghouls in Boston."
