Fresh off the box office success of Osgood Perkins’ Longlegs, which just had the highest opening weekend in the company’s history, NEON has picked up YouTube critic Chris Stuckmann’s debut horror movie Shelby Oaks, Deadline reports this afternoon.
NEON has acquired worldwide rights to the found footage horror movie, which is World Premiering at Fantasia this week. No word yet on a wide release date. Stay tuned for more.
Horror master Mike Flanagan (Doctor Sleep, “The Fall of the House of Usher”) recently came on board the upcoming Shelby Oaks as an executive producer. Flanagan, Trevor Macy and Melinda Nishioka of Intrepid Pictures have joined the team.
The cast for Shelby Oaks will include Camille Sullivan (Hunter Hunter), Brendan Sexton III (Don’t Breathe 2), Michael Beach (If Beale Street Could Talk), Robin Bartlett (Shutter Island), Keith David (The Thing), Charlie Talbert (The Big Short), Emily Bennett (Alone With You) and Sarah Durn (Where the Crawdads Sing).
So what is Shelby Oaks about, you ask? Here’s the synopsis…
“Shot as a traditional feature, but with some elements of found footage, Shelby Oaks is a horror film about missing paranormal investigators (the paranormal paranoids), the dark legacy they uncovered, and the far-reaching effects their investigation has as Mia searches for her sister Riley, the lead paranormal investigator, 12 years later.
“As Mia uncovers new and disturbing leads related to Riley’s disappearance, she uncovers evidence of a hidden supernatural evil dating all the way back to her and Riley’s childhood.”
Stuckmann wrote and will be directing Shelby Oaks for Paper Street Pictures.
