Cameron and Colin Cairnes summon demonic forces on a 1970s talk show, and the results are hellishly good in Late Night With the Devil.
David Dastmalchian stars as Jack Delroy, a television talk show host of Night Owls who has been going up against the legendary Johhny Carson every week for years and never managing to usurp the icon despite having a decent following of his own.
The film is presented as a lost episode of the show, so it features the soft-focus cameras and 70s set design you’d expect with the typical talk-show formula replicated quite well. The Cairnes draw you into their unearthed time capsule convincingly, and it’s down to the doubleheader of excellent presentation and Dastmalchian’s believable performance as a 70s talk show host.
Smartly, this cycle of cynicism and sincerity escalates after each ad break . The choice of guests feels ever more weighted towards creating a particular kind of drama, and even when you think Late Night With the Devil might have played its hand a bit too soon, it comes roaring back with a mesmerizing breakdown scene that is arguably the film at its best.
