Promising that any project will “redefine the found footage genre” might set the bar a little high, but audiences were hyped for Shelby Oaks (2025). The debut feature of film critic turned movie maker Chris Stuckmann, this flick got the ball rolling with a fan-backed Kickstarter and ended with horror icon Mike Flanagan lending his name to the poster. But what happens when the word-of-mouth momentum doesn’t seem to last past the premiere date? On a new episode of Spooky Tuesday, we’re examining the tapes for ourselves and adding our voices to the fray as we discuss what worked, where things went wrong, what the casual viewer might not know about the effort that went into this demonic offering to Tarion, and where Monica’s least favorite Taylor Swift lyrics come into play. Welcome to our underworld, Spookies — it’s about to get quite dark.

Final Destination: Bloodlines (2025): "A Penny & A Bad Attitude"
We may be done with the theme months for now, but just like you can never escape death, you can't really get away from a Spooky Tuesday theme event. This week, we're throwing it back to 2022's Final Destination Summer as we cover Final Destination: Bloodlines (2025). A return to the franchise with a fresh perspective on the formula, this flick dives deep into the lore and brings back one last appearance from the iconic Tony Todd. On our latest episode, we're sharing our favorite deaths, debating the stakes, and discussing what's the deal with all those premonitions.
