In the past, I was a mediocre fan of YouTube movie critic Chris Stuckmann. Dude was an alright watch. Then he got to make his dream a reality and Kickstarted his own movie! I’ve used Kickstarter in the past to bring my own comics to life, and I chipped in a bit for the Kickstarter for Shelby Oaks. Since then, the movie has been picked up by a real distributor and real Hollywood people have stepped up to help make the movie happen.

We also now have a trailer!

Looks pretty good. I’m not a horror fan by trade, but I’d probably go and watch this if it was playing in one of my local theaters. I think I get access to a digital download due to my Kickstarter backing, but I haven’t really been paying attention to those updates and have completely forgotten what level I pledged at. I just wanted to help a creative dude from the internet achieve his dream – just like me!

Anyway, just wanted to share that trailer. You can probably learn more about Stuckmann’s journey on his YouTube page. And Shelby Oaks comes to theaters on Oct. 3!
