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.

There’s something spooky in the wind, friends — and a priest just told us our new episode might carry the mark of the beast. This week, we’re kicking off Season 666 (AKA Season 6), so we thought it was only appropriate that we should start with The Omen (1976). An iconic horror classic, this flick has inspired plenty of films that followed in its footsteps, and the Final Destination franchise is not least among them. On our latest installment of Spooky Tuesday, we’re discussing crucifix decor, investigating antichrist abortions, and embodying the diabolical trinity… and we’re doing it ALL FOR YOU, SPOOKIES!!!!References:https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/4hQKj3MfGfvR9sctTcdVn2d/how-i-wrote-the-omen-one-of-the-scariest-movies-of-all-timehttps://screenrant.com/omen-movies-in-order-release-chronological/https://www.cineworld.ie/static/en/ie/blog/the-curse-of-the-omen-facts-the-first-omenhttps://nofilmschool.com/how-the-omen-shaped-satanic-horror#https://collider.com/the-omen-curse-production/https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/the-omen-forerunner-to-final-destination/https://www.catholic.com/magazine/online-edition/jews-and-the-rapturehttps://www.craiyon.com/en/image/wrLePISvR-C7fUauG6xhww
