10 Best ‘Dead And I Know It’ Moments In Recent Horror Movies

Late Night with the Devil has been one of the horror highlights of 2024, and one of the particular highlights of this David Dastmalchien-fronted offering is the character of Carmichel Haig.

Here, Dastmalchien plays Jack Delroy, a '70s talk show host who puts together an occult-based episode on Halloween night in an attempt to boost his sagging ratings. As for Carmichael, he's a former magician and an extreme skeptic of any and all things supernatural and spooky. So, when one of Jack's other guests, Lilly, is a young girl who supposedly has a demon residing in her, Carmichael believes this all to be nothing more than an elaborate hoax.

Having spent the bulk of the picture dismissing Lilly's claims of "Mr. Wriggles" being an evil spirit that resides within her, Carmichael's skepticism is completely wiped out when the end of Late Night with the Devil sees Lilly's head split open, light beam out of it, Lilly's parapsychologist June's throat cut, and Jack's assistant Gus' neck snapped. It's only then that Carmichael realises the truth, as the possessed Lilly turns her attention to him and reduces him to a singed corpse.
