Description
David Dastmalchian (Prisoners, Oppenheimer), who we’ve mainly seen in ambiguous supporting roles, stars as Jack Delroy, the host of a late-night talk show in the 1970s. For the Halloween episode of 1977, a whole range of thrilling guests has been invited, including a psychic, a parapsychologist and a girl who might be possessed by a demon. A cool idea of course, such a spooky episode, until all hell breaks loose during the live broadcast. A neat ‘found footage’ film that exposes the darker sides of show business: who is the real devil in this scenario?
True daredevils are in for two screenings in a row with Sleep and Late Night with the Devil in one night! Use the €20 Double Feature ticket: liff.nl/en/halloween.
