I can confirm Late Night with the Devil (2023) really captures the vibe of 1970s horror, and TV. I grew up in the 1970s, regularly watching a lot of what is now classic TV shows, and all the classic horror movies. The Exorcist (1973) was phenomenal. I was in high school when my buddies and I went to see Halloween (1978) when it first came out, and everyone was freaked out by it! Everyone was talking about how The Amityville Horror (1979) was real!
I can imagine, if we had seen Late Night with the Devil at that time, we would've been freaked out by it and thought it was a classic, like Scanners (1981) or something. Even now, as of 2024 (I'm 60 years old) I still had some pretty horrified reactions to certain scenes in this one. I know enough by now to know it's not real, but it's still a lot of fun to have the (bleep) scared out of you every once in a while.
As for the AI images apparently in this movie, I would not have known about them if I hadn't read about it elsewhere. Some people are being convinced to get an outrage rush about this, and boycott something. I've been a professional software engineer for 36 years, and increasingly AI is being used by programmers to generate code. What are you going to do, boycott all software with AI generated code? Do you want to get the thrill of an outrage from that too?
