“Late Night with the Devil (2024) is a 1970s-set horror that maps live television onto ritualized spectacle. It stages a late-night broadcast collapsing into ritualized violence through high-contrast chiaroscuro, axial cutting, and tight tableau staging. The film reframes media spectacle into a formal experiment that tests institutional culpability.”
