Hey Horror Movie lovers,

The Cantaloupe Cats are back with a new logo and brand new episode! Our special guest is Kevin McDonald (Kids on The Hall, Brain Candy, Lilo & Stitch), here to talk about his pivotal role in Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, the mind bending new Jane Schoenbrun film. It is being described as a satirical surrealist psychological slasher and it does indeed live up to that title, though I would add comedy to that list even if it breaks the alliteration. Spoilers for: I Saw the TV Glow, Camp Miasma, Friday the 13th series, Sleepaway Camp, Psycho, We're All Going To The World's Fair, Dexter Ressurection

Are you stranded on a desert island of the soul? Do you have tuna fish on your face that no one at work will tell you is there? It's Send Help by Sam Raimi, his first time back in the horror genre since 2009's Drag Me To Hell. Joining us on the pod is Eric Zeender, guitar player for Late Cambrian and movie enthusiast! I'm reminded of that line in Bodies Bodies Bodies where Rachel Sennot's podcast is called "Hanging Out with Your Smartest and Funniest Friends". Spoilers for Send Help, I Know What You Did Last Summer (remake) & the Scream Franchise.

It's January. You know what that usually means... film companies dump their worst movies in the first quarter of the year. Not 2026 though. Into the deadzone drops Primate and 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, bucking this decades long trend with two bangers. We've brought out the big guns for the first episode of 2026. 

First up is music video director and "gorilla" filmmaker King Z https://www.captainimmondizia.net who has joined us to talk about Primate, because of his love for killer chimp movies and all things monkey related. 

Up next is Levi Wilson https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2358125/ , director and screenwriter, making his return to the pod after he talked about 28 Years Later in one of our more popular episodes. 

Strap in, this is a long one... maybe just put it on while your ironing clothes or drifting off to sleep high as a kite.

Hey Horror Lovers and Cantaloupe Cats enthusiasts!

Another brand new episode for you all. We dive into YouTuber Chris Stuckman's first full length movie, Shelby Oaks, as well as Osgood Perkins' brand new movie Keeper! As per usual, there are HEAVY SPOILERS for both movies. Tom Milligan is traveling for the holidays so there is only one fake commercial this time by John Wlaysewski. I just noticed when looking up the posters for the movies, that they are like polar opposites of each other. Interesting artwork synchronicity. Enjoy!
