This stylish found-footage film takes a dark, surprising look at possession

A Halloween episode of a late-night talk show gets much scarier than host Jack Delroy (David Dastmalchian of The Suicide Squadand Murderbot) intended in the highly stylish 2024 film Late Night with the Devil. Colin and Cameron Cairnes put a clever spin on the found-footage genre, supposedly combining a tape of a fateful 1977 broadcast with backstage recordings shot in black and white. After a brief documentary-style intro that lays out the plot groundwork, they effectively tell the story in real time.

    This sounds like an intriguing take on the found-footage genre! I appreciate how it blends elements of horror with a unique setting like a late-night talk show. Looking forward to seeing how it unfolds!

    Absolutely! The mix of a late-night talk show setting with horror really adds a unique twist. It’s interesting to see how familiar formats can be transformed into something so unsettling. I’m looking forward to seeing how the tension builds throughout the episode!
