Also, as is tradition, two fake commercials created by Tom and John are included here, with a special guest animal noise performance by Olive Hui. This episode has HEAVY SPOILERS!

Dylan Mars Greenberg talks about her newest film, Spirit Riser which is playing at the Roxy in Tribeca on September 15th 2025 https://www.roxycinemanewyork.com/screenings/spirit-riser-qa/

After the tragic death of their parents, two sisters (Summer Greenberg and Amanda Flowers) are torn apart and sent to opposite coasts by a malevolent entity. One sister cannot remember who she is, and the other cannot grasp the fateful task that lies ahead of her. While fighting to make their way back to each other, the sisters encounter many strange characters that could either help them or destroy them.

00:00 Who is Kevin Corrigan?

04:29 The Exorcist

19:35 Exorcist 3: Legion

53:02 Exorcist 2: The Heretic

In a Very Special Episode of The Cantaloupe Cats, we are joined by veteran character actor and all around cool cat Kevin Corrigan! When we reached out to ask him if he'd like to come on the pod he said he wanted to talk about The Exorcist films. It was the perfect excuse to sit down and dig into this classic but troubled film franchise (I had never seen 2 or 3). I didn't know Kevin Corrigan was in Exorcist 3, and he regails us with tales from the set, ancedotes about Martin Scorcese, and WIlliam Blatty, and all sorts of other trivia and experiences he has had as an actor. Spoilers for: The Exorcist 1-3, Poltergeist, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, Child's Play & Mean Streets.

Theme Song: Language, Violence, Adult Situations by Fashion Bird Danger Danger.

Kevin Corrigan is an American character actor. He has appeared mostly in independent films and television since the 1990s, including as Uncle Eddie on the sitcom Grounded for Life (2001–2005). His film appearances include supporting roles in Goodfellas (1990), Rhythm Thief (1994), Walking and Talking (1996), Henry Fool (1997), The Departed (2006), Superbad (2007), Pineapple Express (2008), Seven Psychopaths (2012), The King of Staten Island (2020), and co-starring roles in Big Fan (2009) and Results (2015). He has been twice nominated for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Male. 

The Cantaloupe Cats turn the key and unleash nihilistic doom on an unsuspecting public, with their HEAVY SPOILER deep dive into The Monkey, a 2025 Horror Comedy by Oz Perkins. As per usual, two fake commercials were created especially for this episode, to inject a little of our own horror comedy into the proceedings. Both John and Tom are super well versed in Stephen King lore so the conversation covers a lot of ground. SPOILERS for: The Final Destination Series, Six Feet Under, Longlegs, The Monkey, various Stephen King books and movies etc.

I was eating popcorn during the episode so every once in a while my voice sounds different. 

Coming up next: A Horror Flashback Episode featuring Special Guest, Kevin Corrigan!
