‘Dark Was the Night’ Teaser Poster; Film to Play Screamfest In LA! (Exclusive)

Published

I’ve been looking forward to Dark Was the Night so I’m stoked to be able to announce that Los Angeles readers can see it early in October. I hung on the set of the film and was impressed with what I saw, from the practical creature effects to the cast, which included Kevin Durand, Lukas Hass, Heath Freeman, Sabina Gadecki and Nick Damici.  The film was directed by Jack Heller from a script by Tyler Hisel and was produced by Caliber Media.

In the film, “an evil is unleashed in a small town when a logging company sets up shop in the neighboring woods.” And you can see it soon if you live in Los Angeles! We can exclusively report that Dark Was the Night is set to premiere at Screamfest (it’s not on the lineup yet but it will be) in October. The fest runs from October 14th-23rd at the TCL Chinese Theaters. Be sure to check it out!

Head below for the teaser poster designed by Brandon Schaefer.

‘Late Night With the Devil’ – Exclusive Clip Begins the Supernatural Horror on Halloween 1977

Published

on

The upcoming Late Night With the Devil is one of the most buzzed about horror movies of the year, currently 100% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes and earning rave reviews from both Stephen King and Kevin Smith. King raves that the film is “absolutely brilliant,” adding that he couldn’t take his eyes off it. Smith comments, “I love it. It’s Rosemary’s Baby meets Network.”

David Dastmalchian (Dune, The Suicide Squad) stars as the host of a late-night talk show that descends into a nightmare in the Ghostwatch and WNUF Halloween Special-inspired film.

IFC Films & Shudder will release the hotly anticipated Late Night with the Devil theatrically on March 22 before it heads to Shudder exclusively on April 19, 2024.

Begin the horror with a brand new EXCLUSIVE clip below…

David Dastmalchian stars as Jack Delroy, the charismatic host of “Night Owls,” and the film traces the ill-fated taping of a live Halloween special in 1977 plagued by a demonic presence.

The energetic and innovative feature hails from Australian writing-directing team Colin and Cameron Cairnes (100 Bloody Acres, Scare Campaign). 

The film premiered last year at SXSW. Meagan wrote in her review out of the fest, “Late Night with the Devil captures the chaotic energy of a late night show, embracing the irreverent comedy and stress of live television with a pastiche style. It’s a clever trojan horse for a surprising horror movie that goes full throttle on unhinged demonic mayhem.

“The ingenuity, the painstaking period recreation, a riveting performance by Dastmalchian, and a showstopper of a finale make for one Halloween event you won’t want to miss.”

Spooky Pictures founders Roy Lee (It, The Grudge, The Ring) and Steven Schneider (Pet Sematary, Paranormal Activity, Insidious), Derek Dauchy (“Al Kameen”) and Future Pictures’ Mat Govoni (“Lone Wolf”) and Adam White (“Lone Wolf”) and John Molloy are all producing.

Joel Anderson (Lake Mungo), Rami Yasin, and David Dastmalchian executive produce.
