- WHAT IS LATE NIGHT WITH THE DEVIL?
This week we’re doing something a little different and that's talking about Shudder’s Late Night With The Devil! I saw a handful of people wanting me to do a video on this movie since it kind of fits into the analog horror genre. I thoroughly enjoyed this film when I first watched it and can’t wait to get into it. The style was incredibly captivating and I really hope we get some more horror flicks in this vein getting more attention.

DISCLAIMER: I truly apologize for the heavily edited footage in this video as it was the only way to keep it safe from the higher ups above, I hope it isn't too much of a distraction
You should cover, Dreams of an Insomniac
Move the Four Plus
I can’t see
I just listen so is all cool
It's fine. Just shows how Yoo Toobe doesn't let you upload in peace
Why are others doing just fine without this shameless self promotion?
One small detail I found really compelling during the Kristu scene is how he has a very obviously fake accent for a majority of his screen time (in order to seem more legitimate) but when he has the last reading he loses the accent, showing just how real and grave it was.
I thought he was the devil in the end
Woah good observation
Yeah, I noticed that, and it's Christou, BTW.
This movie is one of the best examples I've seen of a predictable plot made entertaining. You watch the first 15-20mins of it and you already know where this is gonna go and how this is gonna end, yet the presentation keeps it entertaining enough to keep watching.
It's like watching a slow moving car crash😂
I had the same feeling about Puss in Boots (The Last Wish). I saw all the plot beats coming but it didn't matter because it was so well crafted. Proving you don't always have to subvert everything and layer on irony to make a smart movie.
Agree I was like he is gonna kill everyone or the ghost kill everyone but still enjoyed it
It’s quite rare for a movie to do that. Usually they add a twist to keep it interesting but this didngtneed it
Personally I just wished it had a couple of good scares earlier in the film, but I also completely appreciate it's not what they was going for.
A couple things:
“The Grove” is based on the real life Bohemian Grove. It’s pretty much exactly how it’s described in the movie.
Carmichael Haig is based on James Randi, a former magician turned skeptic who offered a monetary prize for anyone who could prove they were magic.
Do u think this was loosely based on Johnny Carson?
@@Wayne_Aarkswhite boi awesome up all night Johnny cuckson
Houdini offered the same cash prize as well
@@Wayne_Aarksdid you watch either the movie or this video?? they say night owls was a direct competitor to johnny carson
@chrisziadeh6537 hence why I asked was it loosely based abt him and not anybody else . Why else would they mention Carson specifically but have other characters based on actual ppl with fictional names .. There are alot of similarities which you might have noticed if u wasn't trying to be a smart ass .. Why would they mention "the grove" and not call it by its real name. I see alot of this movie went over your head so this question wasn't for you .. More so for those who can comprehend and read between the lines clearly you take everything at face value which again Is fine but obviously this is one of those movies where things are not as they seem
Gus said to Carmichael something like ’’My wife loves my head, you’re not gonna make it spin?’’ and in the end it is was exactly happens to him 😈
I did not catch that! Clever
And Jack tells June that Carmichael is "all wax and no wick" and he ends up burning like a candle.
Tons of foreshadowing….Jack Delroy told Carmichael that check was gonna disappear and it did….the devil burned it before ‘lighting up’ Carmichael….abracadabra😂🤣
"A shocking amount of worms in his stomach" what would be a non-shocking amount?
Despite his claims to the contrary, gus looks like the kind of guy to eat a worm or two here and there
Two?
@@BeezerWashingbeard3 maybe i mean who hasnt slurped up a few of the wiggly fellers here and there?
Zero
16000 apparently... pinworms exists
Carmichael was a great character. He acted as a conduit for the audience, to create doubt at every turn so to further contain the tension longer and longer
Halfway through the movie, i thought Carmichael was the devil. Casting doubts, playing skeptic, making people question spiritualism. But i suppose that would've been too easy. The way they just ran at it and just laying it out as it is actually was a great choice
@@Winteramen I thought so too especially since he even gives a wink at the camera when hypnotizing Gus.
I thought that entire scene would be where it's revealed he was the devil all along.
i am so grateful that big actors still want to work on more contemporary and indie movies. like bob odenkirk starring in another "the room" remake
Where the fuck is that movie i wanna see it so badd 😭😭😭😭😭
In a scene later in the movie, Car is talking to the mother and sister of the dead boy who reveal that, upon entering the studio, they filled out questionnaires and talked to the woman who helped Christou when he fell. While it seems like a genera reference to hot reading, a practice where a fake psychic gathers information beforehand and acts like he’s receiving it through supernatural means, it could also be a reference to Peter Popoff, a megachurch pastor busted for doing almost the exact same thing. He would collect prayer cards from his parishioners which they wrote their prayer intentions on, and his wife would sometimes talk to them in the church foyer. She would then feed him this information through an earpiece and he would act like he was receiving revelations from God
It could also be a reference to Cody and Satori, who are caretakers of the conjuring house and they seemingly have an ability where they can communicate with the dead by holding hands together. They've been caught conning people multiple times, with one piece of evidence being the fact that they will only do their magic trick for people that have already signed an agreement with them. It's not hard to believe that it gives them enough time to do some background research so they can fool the person to think that they're really speaking to a dead relative. John Wolfe has two videos on the subject that provides more evidence that they're using elaborate tricks to make people believe that they have a paranormal ability.
Jim Jones did something similar, too.
I do agree with the analog horror comment. I felt like I was watching a high production value youtube horror gem. Especially, the first few minutes introducing the audience to what has happened or what's happening.
what makes a horror analogue horror
@@jmgonzales7701
Looking like old analogue TV or tapes.
@@jmgonzales7701 Partly the aesthetic of old school VCR tapes or CRT TVs used to tell a horror story set in that era (70s to early 2000s). The limitations in tech of that era can be used creatively to tell a terrifying story. This is unlike most of the footage movies we have where the recording is done using a digital camera, like Blaire Witch Project.
@@the_third_edition No; you also misunderstand. That's found footage, analog horror is quite a new genre that there's very few examples, if any beyond this, of it in film - most are youtube series. There's reason why it's in the title, indicating the importance or significance of it.
@@aldiascholarofthefirstsin1051 Look up analog horror
Late Night with the Devil got a "HOLY SHIT!" out of me. The ending was anticlimactic, but goddamn, this movie was awesome. It's my 2024 horror movie of the year. And while you mention that this is an analog horror movie, you're right. According to IMDb, one of the tags is analog horror.
Anticlimactic??? I thought it was super fitting especially Jack standing there broken saying dreamer here awake thinking that he’s hypnotized.
@@LiminalLumineerI’ve got to say I disagree. I was brought in by the style of the movie and it’s techniques, but they completely drop it at the end, and it’s just a regular movie message. I don’t mean to be mean but I can’t find the right word other than dummy proof.
It’s like they didn’t have faith in us to be piecing stuff together or to be invested in a movie entirely shot this way, so they added in a ton of backstage regular filming and the ending is completely out of the style the rest of the movie, which makes it anticlimactic to me.
The ending isn’t really predictable either. They did an awesome job with the clues at the start (Secret Society, no known cause for lung cancer), but they just kind of waste that by making the ending all in his head and tell us outright what he did.
Imagine if instead, we pieced it together from inter spliced seemingly non related documentary bits about cults and his secret society. Some of his past, his wife’s seemingly random diagnosis and his major successes despite being a bit awkward starting out. Then have the demon know him and start revealing to him little by little about what he caused you know? We would piece things together a bit slower but his character would increasingly become more withdrawn as he realized throughout the last half.
You could even make a bit of an allegory at the end, instead of having a big flashback in his head, have the ending literally be just him killing the girl or other stars viewed entirely from a camera or something. There is an edit of the “How about another joke” scene from joker, which adds a few filters and plays it on an analog tv, and it’s seriously a little disturbing. The film grain makes the headshot look like an actual low quality snuff film, and I think the murders at the end, shown entirely through what would normally be our perspective on a TV show would really be twice as creepy and unsettling, because it would really look like a murderous supernatural awful event caught on live TV.
You could even have him get his wish again in a twisted way, the show probably would be the most viewed thing if he did that sort of thing, and then you could have an ironic twist of the demon giving him what he wanted again, but like how the last time it cost his wife, this time it would be the end of his career and freedom.
I’m not trying to say that would be good, I’m definitely not qualified but the ending seems anticlimactic in the ways that it abandons the style, and there isn’t any sort of growth, punishment or redemption for his character. He just kind of realizes he was the cause for his wife’s death and then it’s over.
@@hansshekelstein9450 You don't think it was interesting that the concept ended up changing from Jack's fame to the world being possessed? The "oh shit" moment for me was that in the beginning they mention that if anyone were to even watch a recording of a ritual for Abraxis they will be possessed, meaning when he kills Lily, anyone who was watching the TV program is possessed, which in the movie they say it's the "most viewed episode on air since the moon landing". So I thought in the end it wasn't about jack's life but the fact that a large percentage of the US or the world is now possessed.
@@tweekd2994 yea I think others might be missing that which is ironically something that you need to piece together which the other commenter didn't lol. Basically Abraxis used Jack to take control of the world
@@hansshekelstein9450 What? Regular movie "message"? The whole world is screwed in a very chilling way.
I can forgive the cameras capturing the behind the scenes momenst because several movies and shows keep cameras rolling during filming to capture everything, even behind the scenes.
Not like this they don’t. They never even acknowledge the cameras or pretend like it there
Imo that’s a really big nitpick. Since it really doesn’t take from the movie much anyway. This movie is really similar to a movie called Wnuf. You watch a Halloween special on a new station that has been recorded on vhs. You get to see the commercials that aired too.
I feel like if they did the same here, it wouldn’t have been as effective. Especially with the beginning being an intro to Jack’s career leading up to this. It would have been cool to see a tv shot backstage, as it would be believable for some of the crew to watch and make sure things are running smoothly for viewers back home too.
But the change in camera quality and desaturation works really well. The contrasts really enhances the tone of the movie overall. And the rapid switches creates feelings of anxiety and disorientation.
Yes especially back in the day. You would buy vhs of behind the scenes footage of concerts and movies.
@@ExpertContrarian Because they're professionals. It's not one of those amateurish and cliche "get this camera out of my face kind of thing." Furthermore, they do acknowledge the camera. There are several scenes where they look into the backstage camera for a quick short period.
@@XC-Z-cv8qwNope, it’s because they forgot the premise. Professionals wouldn’t act the way the way they do on camera while being filmed in backstage scenes completely ruining their image.
Watched the movie recently, such an excellent horror movie. Amongst the same old boring mainstream horror movies it stands out so much. Excited to hear your take on the movie.
Absolutely, watched it last night. Was hella spooked on my Uber ride home. 😂
Snobby, much?
@@allhailthecrimsonkingsnobbest of the snobbiest snobby snob😂
one of the best horror movies recently, completely changed the cliche mainstream big theatre horror movie trend . and hopefully for now on
Well said.
I can't help but wonder if the reason Jack got such a twisted version of the fame he so badly wanted is because he did actually prematurely end his wife's suffering. Like maybe by doing so he opted out of whatever deal he made early and was cursed by this monkey's paw-esque version of fame (becoming infamous for being the show host where everyone died on his program). I imagine if this is such a long standing "social club" then surely not every case of bargained for wealth and fame made by its members ended in such a gruesome fashion.
Definitely agree this was analog horror. The way it played with the title cards and corruption of the text near the end gave me strong Local 58 vibes.
I had the pleasure of working with the team at Sharp FX to provide the practical make-up effects. Glad the film is getting positive reviews.
That must have been an amazing opportunity. Good for you!
@@clxcwr It was indeed. Thank you.
I loved it, especially the climax. I always wondered what the skeleton man represented but I like to think this was Minnie’s revenge since he sacrificed her life for fame
It represents death. He is in the scene with the devil too. Has nothing to do with the dead wife. He didn't choose to sacrifice her anyway.
Honestly I was so immersed in the movie, when the host first said to cut to commercial, I let out a quiet “Oh you little shit”
My sisters and mom didn’t like it, but I had a blast
The Cleansing Hour on Shudder is way way better on same subject. Late Night is overated.
@@woodrowpreacely7521overrated for you maybe
If this film IS Analog horror then it’s analog horror finally done right. Skinamarink, Mandela Catalog, and other analog horror has never hit that sweet spot for me but this actually kept my attention and I had a good time watching it.
My mother and I watched it, she said it was boring but I loved it, I immediately said it felt like an analog horror from the “this is what the cops found”
Don’t compare this masterpiece to that garbage.
@@twindrill2852 Thats literally the name of the video youre watching....
@@twindrill2852
Y mad?
Late night with the devil sounds like the title of a romance novel
Your not wrong 😅
those 99 cent ones from walmart
It's an overated movie. The Cleansing Hour is waaay better.
Date Night with the Devil 😉😈 🍷
@@woodrowpreacely7521 I think it's fun movie
I watched this movie and was pretty impressed. The set looked almost exactly like the old Carson show set (which was his competition in the movie). Kudos to the set designer on that. That alone helped draw me into the movie. The storyline was a little formulaic, but it was well executed.
The skeptic is based on james randi. A magician with a passion for debunking psychics, the paranormal, and had a sweet ass check for anyone that could convince him. Abraxas is a whole other can of worms. Calling him a demon would be somewhat inaccurate. Research gnosticism if you have the time.
Nope
June mentioned Mr. Wiggles being a "lower deity" that serves Abraxas, and Carmichael mentioned a "gnostic interpretation" at some point after June explains what's inside Lilly. I don't know anything about gnosticism myself, but I know that Christianity had a habit of calling deities from other cultures "demons" or the devil, as they did with Pan. I think their choice to refer to Mr. Wriggles as a demon is more representative of the popular view of fringe religious figures and the time's obsession with Satanism rather than the writers' ignorance of gnosticism (although, again, I'm writing this as someone who is ignorant of gnosticism myself).
@@rachecology I must've missed that. Good thing it's on shudder.
Loved this movie. The ending was awesome. They're referring to the Bohemian Grove if you didn't know.
how can we join the B. Grove? If Satan gives power and $ to these guys, it means it really worth it. Because in reality nobody gives a shit for your life and/or soul.
9:25 another thing that infuriated me was the fact that Carmichael ignored the fact that Christu said an unmarried man not a married man unmarried meaning he is no longer married
He ignored it because he's not unmarried he's a widower. And because he didn't want to acknowledge his past mistakes.
That beginning with the psychic was intense and set the tone for the movie perfectly. These people use tricks, there are no tricks here
i watched this film with my family, and while they were terrified and confused, i was absolutely enthralled. it was so cool to see a (even if it wasnt the specific intent) genuine analog horror project with movie-level money and time behind it. definitely one of my new favorites.
As Always this channel is so Underrated. Like From this channel I hear about New Movies, Analog horror series ( Thanks 4Plus)
Legit jumped in my seat when i saw you posted. Thanks for the car crash.... my lawyer will be in touch
It was the best thing I went to see at a theater in awhile had my giggles through out with my sister and definitely the long stare of the girl was freaky unsettling uncomfortable in a way it was fun for sure
Bruh, I would have crapped my pants if I heard a girl giggling behind me during that scene. 😅
@@the_third_edition 😂😂😂 yeah didn’t help we were the only ones giggling 🤣
I was planning on watching this in the cinemas but my SO talked me out of it, arguing it might be better if we streamed it instead to feel the “TV talk show vibes” even more. And you know what, I think he was right. Watching it on “TV”, or just a smaller screen, made us immerse in the late night talk show conceit even more. It really felt like we were watching it “live”.
@16:15 “You *know* *who* *I* am, doctor.”
Me: “I KNEW IT!!¡¡!”
Did anyone else catch that the guy in the audience that doesn't talk is probably the same guy in the skeleton costume in the cup drinking scene.
actually went and watched the movie before continuing this video, just knew it'd be something special (loved it!!!)
Same here it was such a great horror movie.
it feels like an extended V/H/S segment
stopped watching the video just to see the movie itself and wow, so worth it
"we even see a face glitch in"
No, we don't, your channel logo is in the way!! 😂
It's definitely too big
@@greenytaddict... That's what she said!
I saw this as analog horror immediately. I know not everyone will get that because analog horror though popular on TH-cam is still niche.
Definitely gonna be an annual Halloween movie night watch.
One of the most entertaining horror movie in years. Though the story is simple and straightforward the payoff is great.
I honestly feel like this movie was more reminiscent of docudramas that came out in the 80s and 90s, such as Special Bulletin and Without Warning, two underrated made for TV films that still blow me away when I go back to watch them. Yes, there are a lot of elements of analog horror in this film (and the scene where a demonic face appears through the static is something I thought only my nightmares could create), however the stylistic approach of a late night talk show makes me feel as though this resembles those docudramas closer, specifically how the darker dramatic elements came in for those films. If you haven’t watched them, I would highly recommend watching Special Bulletin or Without Warning, both of which are available on TH-cam and are underrated gems that deserve more praise.
I think the hypnosis with Carmichael adds so much more to this movie that moves it from the predictable category where everyone imagines its going to go to something new where it adds a level of confusion to everything afterwards to the viewer the same as it is to jack where now your asking what actually happened and what didnt.
This is actually not the first time a movie like this has been made. WNUF Halloween Special is a great movie with a very similar presentation from 2013, before analog horror was even really a thing.
You should absolutely cover that movie and its sequel.
Way back in the early 90s, the BBC did a similar thing with a show called Ghostwatch. And boy, did they get into trouble be uae of it.
Love WNUF, although they might have been a little ahead of their time with it( at least for this era, as Ghostwatch did it in the 90's).
BROOO MY DAD GOT THIS MOVIE BECAUSE HE SAID IT WAS THE KIND OF MOVIE I LIKED AND IT WAS INSAANEEEE ABSOLUTELY ENJOYABLE
Preety good movie! The best modern horror film I watched since Eggers' "The Lighthouse"!
Looking forward to Nosferatu. The Witch was good too.
They clearly needed the help of Father John Ward and Father Garcia.
So i don’t know if many know what Analog Horror is. But to the people who do not know. Here’s a quick description that I can come up with
Analog Horror is a sub-genre of horror, that utilizes the use of old analog technology. (Old cam recorders, news broadcasts from the 60’s to the 80’s. VHS tapes and other tech from that era.)
Edit: this is just like the surface layer that I can come up with. Analog Horror can get much deeper then what I’ve said.
3:42 personally not to jump ahead too quickly because I know this will be talked about later on but I’ve always felt like when he did ( spoilers for anybody who didn’t watch the movie but sorry not sorry.) when he sacrificed his wife I wonder if he also had cancer as well because Jack seems to be a very big smoker and I wonder if the cancer somehow got removed out of his body as the cause of his wife’s death but with the hopes that he would have a little bit more time to try to overthrow Johnny Carson
Great video. One correction: the Exorcist film had not come out yet. I actually thought this was an intentional move by the screen writers, as if to suggest this event would have been a partial inspiration for Blatty's book which came out the same year, 1971.
YES, this film is definitely analog horror, and it's funny to me that folks don't understand that. It's only a genre that's existed online for years now.
You missed one thing. When we get the final scene, the words at the bottom corner change to "so it has begun"
Actually "so it is done"
THAT is the dead giveaway. So analog horror-coded
This was a very good horror film. Love the recording style
I really enjoyed the movie until the AI controversy (I was kinda hoping they were using AI as an aiding tool like Spiderman into the Spider verse, but I was smoking too much hopium) and that made me put off. Like they did great job on the 70s affect, but to chose AI instead of hiring an artist is just downright insulting and lazy.
Other than that, I thought it was unique and good (and apparently the ghost of Jack's wife was seen throughout the movie: sort of like an easter egg). And I was gonna think you'll mention the skeleton guy and the devil guy too as it's kinda ashamed they were often seen throughout the movie but nothing is said besides they're were amongst the cultists.
this was a fun movie to watch with no knowledge
went to see this movie a couple weeks ago and its one of those films where the ending really makes u think,
I mean, it’s found footage because the footage of the filmed, but un-aired, episode was found. So
I fell asleep watching a video about Fairly Odd Parents and woke up near the end of this
Best youtuber uploaded ❤
True analog horror would be a 35mm slideshow or grainy 1987 surveillance footage because analog cameras are not the same as cinema or television cameras!
This would be known as "on the cutting-room floor horror" on the cutting-room floor (e.g. removed from a movie or television show)!
This movie was amazing and one of the best horror movies! I just finished watching it today and it blew me away from start to finish
People when they watch a movie formatted as an episode of television then complain that it feels like an episode of television 💀💀
Oh? Early as hell for something new? Hell yeah
I am old enough to remember prime time, syndicated, and daytime shows doing similar stunts.
I was literally thinking this movie was literally analog horror as I was watching it!
Lily was absorbing all the electricity around her, which was analog technology it makes too much sense
It warms my little heart that Analog horror is going mainstream 🎉
At 3:16, left corner, is that Salvador Dali? Or am I just imagining things based on that mustache?
Just watched this last night. As other commenters have mentioned, its a 3/10 for unpredictability, but a 10/10 for execution.
Its very good, would recommend.
I also love how they made a reference to Anton LaVey in the cult leader, down to the very LaVey-esque name lololol. LaVeyan Satanism was founded in the late 60s/early 70s, so it really lined up perfectly. Carmichael looks like a particular skeptic magician in the 70s too, I just don't know the guy's name
AI Art was used this movie promotion
And as someone draws for a living, that's unnecessary
funny story: I got a really bad panic attack in the theater a little before the worm/stomach scene and while the panic attack was unrelated to the movie (i think), that scene all the way through the end of the movie made the panic attack so much worse! but the movie compelled me enough that i stayed-- movie would have been better as a shorter film but overall a really enjoyable watch!
It's a mockumentary, not found-footage. And it was fun! I really enjoyed this one.
The Grove sounds like a clear reference to the real life Camp David, but I agree with the other comment about Bohemian Grove. There's more than one IRL "cult of rich people networking in the woods"
Carmichael Heigh sounds like a James Randi reference, especially the episode where he exposes Peter Popoff's grift, either James Randi or Penn/Jilette have a similar cash prize for proving the supernatural
Also, I understand the need to keep depicting Carmichael as an antagonist, though I think the movie he was more of a foil to the other characters. To anyone unsuspecting of what was coming next, he would have kept them grounded until the scares began. In real life, people like James Randi do a lot of good work revealing hoaxes, grifters, and scammers (e.g. megachurch pastors hearing god when it's actually their wife in the earpiece spying on people)
Fun Fact: The Announced Break Times of the Crew Match the Actual Time progression, Making the whole Experience "Realtime" without time skips. :)
David KILLLLED IT in this film!!! I always love him as Polkie but he totally stole the show here. This film was awesomeeeee
My Dad compared this movie to the BBC’s “Ghost Watch”. There are similarities, I’ll give him that.
Late Night With the Devil - Inconsistency with the Hypnosis Worm-Phobia Scene.
Upon playback the skeptic magician says "Because something dreadful is about to happen. It's dawning on you. Hear that? Ghostly sounds; Anguished moaning from beyond." A befuddled Jack Delroy then mutters (almost under his breath) "That's not the way I remember it.."
There are a lot of things in the playback recording that are (in hindsight) obvious hallucinations; the writhing worms crawling out of the sidekicks skin primarily BUT..the above text I quoted is new dialogue differing from what the hypnotist spoke live on air. In fact when ghostly murmuring is heard during the live hypnosis he simply says nothing while Gus says "What is that? DO you hear that?" as the skeptic stares ominously. Now an easy, lazy explanation for this would be that 'it's just another hallucination'. But is that not strange that a seemingly trivial line of dialogue is spoken on the playback video and Jack already realizes the recording has deviated from the live demonstration..before the gut wrenching hallucination manifests itself? Seems like something the story teller wants us to catch but at the same time nothing about the added dialogue seems cryptic either. Thoughts?
P.S. On a more light-hearted note, did anyone catch Jack Delroy losing arm wrestling to a midget live on air during the montage in the first 10 minutes?
When I watched it I couldn’t get my suspension of disbelief going because the video and audio quality is way too perfect to pass off as a show from the 70’s. Yet also at the same time the insane amount of commercial breaks made it feel like I was watching an actual real tv show.
I do like that throughout the whole episode it’s very hard to tell what spooky stuff was scripted by the tv producers and what was legit spooky stuff that wasn’t planned by anyone.
Love this movie it captures the essence of the 70s perfectly
Okay, I noticed this in theaters and nobody else caught this, and I didn't see you mention it here, but at the scene at 18:29, there's a face on the TV. I mentioned it to my friends and they said they missed it, but it's something I don't see anyone bring up.
The TV actually disappointed me because of how obvious it was. The quiet tv suddenly makes a static sound, and the camera is fixed on the tv as her face appeared.
Especially considering earlier in the film, his wife could be seen for a brief moment in a full length mirror as the camera followed the action backstage. No audio cue or hint that anything was amiss. It was the ideal way to do the gag, and the TV kind of dampened it for me.
Who else noticed when shit hit the fan, Frankenstein was having an absolute blast. It seemed like he was loving it
Honestly relatable. Happened to me yesterday 🤫🧏♂️
I do wonder, do you think something like Ghostwatch (1992) or The WNUF Halloween Special (2013) could be considered analog horror movies too. I mean Ghostwatch was broadcast on the BBC as a sort of Halloween special so that might disqualify it. But what about The WNUF Halloween special? It's a movie that also does the haunted live TV broadcast (though it isn't set up as a footage that was found). What about Noroi the Curse (2005) which a lot of people were calling an Analog Horror movie.
It wasn't a perfect movie, but goddamn, it was very refreshing and entertaining, practical effects, good acting. We need more shit like this. It's a shame this movie wasn't even shown in theaters in my country.
Its analogue horror. With a missing episode creepy pasta twist.
Also I knew instantly that it would be showing us literally the entire episode that aired.
Because they tell us that in the intro of the "documentary"
The ending scene was a pleasant surprise. It gave us more context of jacks past.
Personally I would be perfectly fine without it. But im glad its in it.
And this is coming from the guy who doesn't like analogue horror because I think youtubers focus more on effects and making it look creepy rather than the actual story.
I saw this video and was like damn gotta watch this movie and then video and then understand what he’s cooking. Glad to say im back for the watch and excited to hear watchu got to say
I just came out of the cinema watching it, neat movie with a cool concept.
The only scare that got me was the cut to ""end transmission"".
Good movie!
Just watched it and I loved it. I used to watch analog horror all the times and this movie is just perfect for that.
My favorite scene is probably when he told us to turn the tv off.
i actually really like the idea of the demon learning to hypnotize from carmichael (or at least being inspired by his act)! watching the film, when lilly laughs as gus hallucinates the worms, asking "what is gus doing?" i assumed it was because the devil can't be hypnotized, and was like the few crowd members who just saw everyone freaking out over nothing...
That what I thought too except I just straight up assume it didn't work on her because she was possessed
Maybe the idea is that, sort of like in No Country For Old Men, contrary to what the viewer might BELIEVE to be important in the movie's universe, having the last of the cult's members killed was what REALLY mattered to Abraxas all along, and Jack's susceptibility, due to his having been initiated into a more exoteric version of it, opened him up to being the vessel by which it would be carried out.
I went and watched it, it was very entertaining/suspenseful and good fun! Idk if it's analog horror per se, but it was unique and well done.
Loved this movie, hated the complaints of the use of AI in the film
Listen the use of it in this movie is inconsequential but if we just let it slide AI could start taking opportunities away from graphic artists and even extras and actors
What's great about this movie is that it's an elaborate metaphor for the pursuit of fame.
What's your theory regarding the skeleton and mummy guests appearing in the grove scene?
I will say when I saw it I liked it, but the A.I is the only issue and it is a problem, it's some series writing on the wall that A.I is a growing problem
I get it A.I. is a problem: when people tell an A.I. to make an entire project based off a few factors. This is an original film made by actual people that uses A.I. to help tell it’s story. The movie used a tool as a tool like it should be. Just enjoy it.
@@galaxionart9338 dont tell me what to do, they used AI in those commercials cards that should been drawn by real people
This movie had such good execution and wonderful concept. Imo its a solid introduction to Analog Horror for those who may not be super into it online. That being said, I feel like I may have gotten my hopes too high because of all the off the wall analog horror that i’ve seen on TH-cam lol
That kind of niche stuff doesn’t appeal to a wide audience, so it makes sense that it feels toned down to me.
Watched it twice back-to-back. Super good movie.
Yes. YES. That's EXACTLY what I thought to myself after finishing the film. I was like "holy shit, analog horror is making it to the movies and this is such a great start". I fucking loved this film so much.
I just found this video because I watched this movie a few days ago and thought it’d might’ve been based off an analog horror or a creepypasta because it felt more like those than your average found film type. Really predictable but very entertaining and although I wasn’t a live in the 70s I love films and horror from then which I thought this movie did well on.
Best horror movie I’ve seen in years. The end was a little meh to me but I don’t think it ruins the experience because honestly I don’t know what the ending is that I would’ve preferred
