Blu-ray Review - Late Night with the Devil
February 15, 2025
"Late Night with the Devil" returns viewers to the ways of television talk shows in the 1970s, where looser standards for constant audience engagement meant that wild situations could develop. With horror fanatics typically favoring a younger demographic, it'll be interesting to see if there's an audience for the feature, which uses the conventions of network television programming from 50 years ago to serve as inspiration for a demonic possession film. Writer/directors Cameron and Colin Cairnes ("100 Bloody Acres," "Scare Campaign") have the right idea for what's technically a found footage endeavor, creating a special evening of surprise for the host of the show, "Night Owls." "Late Night with the Devil" visibly battles to come up with stuff to do to fill 90 minutes of screen time, but the helmers deliver effective atmosphere for the effort, which periodically scores with T.V. replication and visits to the dark side.
