Kelli Maroney

Listen to "Kelli Maroney Life As A Hollywood Scream Queen" on Spreaker. Kelli first got her big break in Daytime TV, both as the evil adolescent Kimberly in RYAN'S HOPE and then as vengeful Tina in ONE LIFE TO LIVE. Her film debut as the 'Spirit Bunny' Cindy Carr in FAST TMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH caught a lot of attention, but Kelli achieved her greatest enduring cult popularity with her delightful turn as the endearingly spunky Samantha in the science-fiction end-of-the-world NIGHT OF THE COMET. She's especially memorable as the sweet, killer-robot slayer Alison Parks in the entertaining romp, Cult Classic CHOPPING MALL, Jamie, a strong female survivor in THE ZERO BOYS, as well as many other films. On a more serious note, Kelli delivered a very strong and impressive portrayal of schizophrenic femme fatale Meredith (Merre) Lake in the superior Showtime mystery Noir thriller FACE DOWN. Maroney acted in and co-produced the award-winning festival short SAM AND MIKE. She has made numerous TV guest star appearances. Recently Kelli has been seen as a crazed TV evangelist in HBO's TRUE BLOOD, a tipsy stage mom-from-hell in POP STAR, the brave 'cougar,' Sheriff Wilma in GILA! THE GIANT MONSTER, Psychic Ezmerelda in the web's HELL'S KITTY, and other web productions. Additionally, she appeared in the recent definitive '80s horror documentary. IN SEARCH OF DARKNESS. Kelli can often be seen on-stage throughout the Los Angeles area. Currently, she's the host of SMTCL-TV, co-host of the podcast RICK'S MARTINI BAR, and has several Film and Television projects in various stages of development and production.
