Late Night With The Devil. 2023.
David Dastmalchian plays Jack Delroy, a late night tv show presenter looking to get high ratings and competing with Johnny Carson. After a month of hiatus, Jack returns for a Halloween special that does not go well.
Something a bit new with the plot with found footage and documentary style, we are given the small back story to Jack and his rise from radio to the television and his life away from the screen with some mystery ties and the live broadcast that was filmed but never shown. With the narration it does give out a creepy vibe tone that doesn't drag on and a good character build up. The throwback to the 70s was a decent touch with the studio set piece and of America television, and there is a nod to a de-bunker of the paranormal with a character that was based on a actual person that was nicely added in. This isn't exactly jaw dropping edge of your seat chiller but certainly worth a watch.
