Late Night With the Devil15

Directed by Cameron & Colin Cairnes | Australia/USA | 2023 | 1h 33m | Starring David Dastmalchian, Laura Gordon, Ingrid Torelli, Ian Bliss, Fayssal Bazzi

In October 1977, a failing late-night talk show host made television history with his audience-baiting Halloween special that tragically spiralled out of control. Now, four decades later, a recently discovered master tape unveils the truth about that fateful night when evil was unleashed on the nation’s living room screens. Imagine Ghostwatch reinvented as a kitschy 1970s American talk show; this devilishly devised and wickedly funny found-footage horror film delivers plenty of chills.

Reviews

‘Smart, cynical and at times devilishly funny, the film delivers a crackle of disruptive static to the demonic possession genre.’
★★★★
Wendy Ide, The Observer

‘It’s wonderfully creepy and unnervingly familiar, like Alan Partridge by way of The Exorcist. If that doesn’t automatically enter it into the pantheon of classic midnight movies, I don’t know what does.’
★★★★
Philip De Semlyen, Time Out

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
