Episode 37 - The Exorcist Film Legacy & Exorcistic Rock Musical Interview with Emma Hunton
This week on The Video & Vinyl Club, we’re diving into one of the most infamous horror films of all time—The Exorcist(1973). From its groundbreaking storytelling and shocking special effects to the eerie real-life myths surrounding the production, we’ll trace how this film became both a cultural phenomenon and a cinematic landmark.
But the devil takes many forms… including Broadway. Enter Exorcistic: The Musical Parody, a darkly hilarious stage production that reimagines possession with camp, music, and a heavy dose of comedy. We’ll explore how horror and humor collide when the sacred gets turned into a showstopper with the incomparable Emma Hunton (Spring Awakening, Good Trouble), who stars in Exorcistic.
Emma takes us behind the curtain to share what it’s like to embody such an iconic role in parody form, how she balances horror and humor on stage, and why this show has audiences both screaming and laughing.
From pea soup to power ballads, this episode has it all—because sometimes the best exorcism is a musical number.
