If you didn’t get a chance to watch the fantastically nightmarish horror film Late Night with the Devil in theaters, the opportunity has presented itself again!
IFC Films and Shudder are bringing the movie back to theaters this weekend, and this time around it will include an introduction from star David Dastmalchian, a Q&A between Dastmalchian and Kevin Smith, and more.
Directed by Colin and Cameron Cairnes, Late Night with the Devil follows Jack Delroy, “host of a syndicated late-night talk show Night Owls that has long been a trusted companion to insomniacs around the country.
“It’s October 31, 1977, a year after the tragic death of Jack’s wife, and ratings have plummeted. Desperate to turn his fortunes around, Jack plans a Halloween special like no other, unaware that he is about to unleash evil into the living rooms of America.”
I thought this was a great horror movie and it’s one definitely worth watching if you’re a fan of the genre! I’ll definitely be catching the film in theaters again!
