🎬 Welcome back to We’re Too Literary! 🎬

Ever wonder what happens when a horror-averse host finds himself surprisingly intrigued by a spine-chilling found-footage film? Jonathan's suspicion about that "movie camera" shot led to a hilariously passionate debate with Kenny about the balance between cinematic flair and found-footage authenticity.

In this episode, we dive into "Late Night with the Devil," exploring its nostalgic 4 by 3 aspect ratio, fascinating character arcs, and Lily’s mesmerizing role. We discuss improving the visual representation of deaths to heighten the film's mystery and why a documentary-style cameraman might add a layer of authenticity. Plus, we brainstorm how some characters' survival could pave the way for potential sequels and speculate on intriguing tweaks to the hypnosis scenes.

Join us as we also explore the film "Riggles," with its eerie light beams and séance sequences, followed by reminiscing about classic horror versus modern shock value. This episode is a deep dive into narrative cohesion with a touch of nostalgia. As always, we wrap up with recommendations and eagerly await your thoughts!
