How to watch Late Night with the Devil — Is it streaming?
You can read theDexerto review of Late Night with the Devil here, where we gave the movie 4/5, and wrote: “Late Night with the Devil is an effective scarer that owes a sizeable debt to TV classic Ghostwatch that aired on the BBC in 1992, and claimed to be an investigation into the supernatural, but was actually a mockumentary; one that scared the Bejesus out of the watching public.
“Late Night explores similar territory, though at the disadvantage of audiences knowing it’s a piece of fiction from the off. But the Cairnes siblings have fun with the form, while in spite of the film’s modest budget, the effects are impressive as the movie builds to its devastating denouement.”
