LATE NIGHT WITH THE DEVIL
Directed by Colin Cairnes, Cameron Cairnes | 86 min | Australia / United Arab Emirates
From the moment it burst onto screens at this year's SXSW Film Festival, this shocker has had audiences buzzing, and critics swooning! Turning the "found footage" concept entirely on its head, Late Night with The Devil appears as an actual lost broadcast from a 1970s late-night talk show.
Airing live on Halloween 1977, this episode of the Jack Delroy Show was meant to be a ratings grab, as the show's producers had booked various guests with the intent to scare the audience in-studio and at home. Things did not go entirely as planned.
Featuring the phenomenal David Dastmalchian and impeccably filmed to recreate a real 70's late-night talk show, this is the very definition of "Must-See TV." No less an authority than Stephen King himself posted on Twitter, "It's absolutely brilliant…I urge you to watch it when you can!"
