Spirit Riser was a six-year project made with limited resources and lots of creativity from the famously outrageous Greenberg.
For this magnum opus, Greenberg gathered some of her cast regulars in Amanda Flowers, Jurgen Azazel Munster (Werewolf Bitches from Outer Space), and Matthew Silver (Glamarus), and joined them with new faces, including Cherie Currie of The Runaways, an unrecognizable Whitney Moore (Birdemic), Lynn Lowry (Shivers), Kansas and Parker Bowling (Cuddly Toys), rock and roll legend Alan Merrill, Patti Harrison (Together Together), and Gender Outlaw author Kate Bornstein, with narration by Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs).
