“Late Night with the Devil” is set on Halloween Eve, 1977. This horror film narrates the tale of a late-night talk show host who, in a bid for higher ratings, invites a girl named Lilly, who is allegedly possessed by a demon, to appear on live television—a decision that spirals into a nightmare for all viewers.
The film, directed by Cameron and Colin Kearns, stars David Dastmalchian in the lead role. He is also known for his performances in Denis Villeneuve’s films and “Suicide Squad | Missions Through.”
Journalists and viewers received the film positively. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has a 97% “freshness” rating based on nearly 200 reviews, and on IMDb, it has a score of 7.5 out of 10.
Despite its modest budget (the exact amount was not disclosed), “Late Night with the Devil” earned over ten million dollars at the box office, a figure that experts deem a robust performance for a film of this type.
The horror film is accessible on streaming platforms such as Prime Video and Apple TV+.
