In this bonus edition of The Pod Charles Cinecast, your hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas step back into the territory of new film releases to talk about two spooky new films out in cinemas! One is genuinely spooky, and the other is spooky on account of how bad it is...

First up, we dive into the hit new film from Shudder, Colin and Cameron Caire's LATE NIGHT WITH THE DEVIL. The film follows cinema journeyman David Dastmalchian as late night talk show host Jack Delroy. On Halloween Night 1977, hoping to get a much-needed ratings boost, Jack invites a parapsychologist and a young girl possessed by a demon on to his show. Soon, all hell breaks loose, and it is all captured in this found footage film.

We dive into all angles of this one, what we liked, what we didn't, what we thought could have made it pop, and even the much maligned AI element of the film, that has turned away some viewers. Did it still deliver enough scares to be spooky delight? Tune in...

Then, we turn our attentions to the most recent outing from the Ghostbusters franchise, GHOSTBUSTERS : FROZEN EMPIRE. The Ghostbusters are back from the Afterlife to deliver another film that pretty much rehashes the original Ghostbusters again. Be prepared, we (mostly Fil) go off on this one. So, if you like hearing us complain, this episode is for you.

Silver lining? Are we turning around Finn Wolfhard (despite him doing nooooothing in this movie?) He is a fan of the Prince Charles Cinema, so he gets bonus points for that. Tune in for all this, and who knows, maybe even a fashion update...
