The Seventies horrors were already creepy, by nature. This rerun of sorts just keeps that tradition alive.
With a true renaissance in horror this past decade, with quite possibly some of the best horror movies produced EVER, I had high expectations and desires for Late Night with the Devil. Annnd, I was NOT let down.
This movie was as disturbing as it was extremely intriguing to watch. As captivating as it was inventive. And as original as it's a classic. I couldn't look away, much like the audience this host wants to provoke.
A 1970s late night TV host, second to Heeere's Johnny, plans to celebrate his Hallowleen proving/disproving the existence of Satan in a young girl. All for ratings/sweep week. Good luck to him, the audience and his guests. They'll need it.
This was so well written, so well shot and so well paced, this probably could've went on for another hour and our eyes would've continued to be glued to the set. Be that as it may, the 90-minutes is just perfect. PLEASE, despite the deep story with many unanswered questions/subplots, NO sequel. This is perfect as is.
I'd be hard pressed not to see this in my top 10, maybe top 5 of 2024. I'd say I wish they made more horror movies like this, but they have. Not EXACTLY like this - as stated, this is wildly original. It's just that over the past 10 years I've been very pleased with groundbreaking and refreshingly new horror films. And this Late Night movie I watched is no exception.
Keep it up, creative filmmakers - from Hollywood to Australia, to South Korea and beyond.

Final Thoughts: Now I look forward to diving into all the twists and turns, background/breakdowns and ending explained by the critics/film buffs on YouTube. I wonder how many will compare this to Jordan Peele's Nope like I did.
