The Exorcist: Everything You Didn't Know

The power of TMI compels you to listen to this epic deep dive into the beloved (?) horror classic, which turns 50 years old in December. You'll learn about the many deaths and other on-set misfortunes which gave rise to the legend that the production was cursed, and you'll also discover all the ways that director William Friedkin was an IRL monster. And speaking of IRL, you'll hear all about the (allegedly) possessed kid who inspired the source material, the future serial killer who played a bit part in the film, and the insane lengths that voice actress Mercedes McCambridge went to summon the nightmare-inducing voice of Pazuzu the Demon. It's a beautiful day for an exorcism — just in time for the holidays!
