Is this like GhostWatch?

Oh, yeah... Kinda. This one has more to do with the character of the late night TV host, whatsisname. Ghostwatch was structured as a hoax. The real life presenters were essentially playing themselves, pretending it was all real. Theoretically, the personal nature of this film should make it better than Ghostwatch, which was, as I said, essentially a hoax broadcast.

However, Ghostwatch struck me as far more real and I have watched it twice. I will probably watch it again in a couple of years. This one... Not watching it again. I suppose if you have fond memories of some real world late night show from the '70s, this film might grab you.

Yeah.

I prefer Ghostwatch.

A little. It's filmed as if its an actual episode of a 70s talk show. A fictional show.

Answering my own question - similar idea but without the suspense.

Maybe I'm too old now, but I saw GhostWatch when it aired and it scared the shit out of me (I was only 12).

I quite liked this film, but I find it hard to believe anyone would be scared by it. I doubt I'd watch this again though.

If you need to pass 90 minutes then it's not a bad shout if you like horror. Just don't expect to hiding behind the sofa.
