Move over, Johnny Carson—this late-night talk show's gone full brimstone! In this episode of the Adult Beverage Film Podcast, Kent, Laura, Patrick, and Squeeker pour up something strong and dive into Late Night with the Devil, the retro-horror fever dream that blends 70s talk-show nostalgia with demonic possession mayhem.
The premise? A struggling TV host in the groovy, bell-bottomed era of 1977 will do anything for ratings… including inviting a guest straight from the fiery depths. Imagine The Tonight Show colliding head-on with The Exorcist, sprinkle in some found-footage chills, and top it with a martini olive of pure chaos.
We break down the film's killer mix of satire and scares, the pitch-perfect vintage production design, and the unholy joy of watching things spiral completely off the rails on live TV. Plus, we ask the hard questions:
-
Would we sell our souls for better Nielsen ratings?
-
How many cocktails does it take before summoning a demon seems like a good idea?
-
And does polyester burn faster when it's hellfire?
Grab your favorite drink, dim those studio lights, and join us for an episode that's equal parts laughs, chills, and "did-that-just-happen?" moments.
