Late Night with the Devil

2023, 1h 33min, Horror

Directors: Cameron Cairnes, Colin Cairnes

Stars: David Dastmalchian, Laura Gordon, Ian Bliss

This horror film takes place almost entirely on the set of a seventies late night talk show, Night Owls, hosted by Jack Delroy. Chasing ratings after personal tragedy, he plans a Halloween broadcast packed with occult guests and a supposedly possessed girl named Lilly. Cameras roll as the studio audience watches strange events mount, blurring the line between showmanship and something far more sinister. Shot like recovered television footage, it has a claustrophobic, live television feel, mixing dark humor with creeping dread as the night slowly spirals out of control.
