Episode 2. HERETIC (Heavy Spoilers) Featuring Olive Hui

The Cantaloupe Cats are back with a brand new deep dive into HERETIC, the 2024 psychological horror movie directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods. It stars Hugh Grant, Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East, and follows two Mormon missionaries who attempt to convert a reclusive Englishman only to find themselves in a religious cat and mouse game. It's exactly the type of religious horror that hosts John Wlaysewski and Tom Milligan love to dig in to (like a delicious blueberry pie) so get ready for a full spoiler plot breakdown, explanations of the butterfly dream & plato's cave, as well as other themes, symbols & metaphors. A big Cantaloupe Cats welcome to actor, musician & artist Olive Hui, who joins us on the pod and shares their insight into religion, cults and group think and how to make your way in the world. Just like episode 1. (The Substance), there are 3 fake commercials placed throughout the episode to break up the discussion with theme relevant humor. John, Tom and Olive each created their own commercials and you will get a sense of their vibe through the creations. Just a reminder this is a HEAVY SPOILER discussion. We open the book and read deeply into the holy scripture of Heretic, so be forewarned. OK, let's get into it. Theme Song: Late Bloomer by Late Cambrian
