Released in 2023 but set on Halloween night, 1977, this film has already cemented itself as a modern horror classic. But why does it work so well? And why should you stream it immediately? The film presents itself as a recovered broadcast of a fictional show, Night Owls with Jack Delroy . We watch the VHS-quality tape as host Jack Delroy (a career-best performance by David Dastmalchian) tries to compete with Johnny Carson’s ratings. To win the sweeps week, Jack invites a parapsychologist, a skeptical magician, and a young girl who is the sole survivor of a Satanic church’s mass suicide. -- moviesdrives.com -- Late.Night.with.the.Devi...
