In this full spoiler review, we break down the controversial Riley ending, analyze what the demon baby twist means, and compare it to other 2025 horror releases like Strange Harvest.
What We Cover: Chris Stuckmann's first feature film as a director. Why Shelby Oaks succeeds: the pervasive dread, effective jump scares, Camille Sullivan's stellar performance as Mia, and the film's exploration of grief, guilt, and obsession. Why it fails: writing flaws, handling of torture tropes, and questionable character decisions in the final act.
The Major Twists: The demon baby revelation. Riley's controversial fate. The tunnel sequences. The prison set piece. What these moments reveal about Stuckmann's directorial vision and where better co-writing could have strengthened the emotional core.
The Good: Incredibly effective atmosphere and dread. Well-earned jump scares (not cheap). Camille Sullivan's performance carries the film. Keith David's surprise cameo. Smart use of a $1.4 million indie budget.
The Bad: Script writing flaws weaken character motivation. Torture tropes feel dated. Women are handled problematically. Final act emotional payoff doesn't land as hard as it should.
Final Verdict: Shelby Oaks shows real directorial promise from Chris Stuckmann. It's a solid indie horror debut that understands atmosphere and dread. However, the writing holds it back from being great. Worth watching if you appreciate horror that builds tension methodically.
Comparison: How Shelby Oaks stacks up against Strange Harvest and other 2025 indie horror films.

Jeffrey Manchester robbed 45 McDonald's locations, escaped jail, and literally lived inside a Toys "R" Us for 6 months while evading police. This movie is absolutely wild.
We discuss Channing Tatum's career-best performance, why Jeffrey made the dumbest decisions despite being a genius, Peter Dinklage being hilarious, Kirsten Dunst's heartbreaking role, the best scenes from the movie, the controversial sentencing, and whether this guy deserved our empathy. One of 2025's most surprising films. 85% on Rotten Tomatoes. In theaters now.

This indie horror follows Indy, a real dog who starred in a 3-year production where he had NO IDEA he was in a movie.
Good Boy (2025) takes horror in a strange and fascinating direction β told entirely from the perspective of a dog.
Itβs experimental, emotional, and surprisingly heartfelt for a movie that couldβve easily gone off the rails. In this review, We break down what worked, what didnβt, and why the story behind the filmβs 3-year production might be the best part of all.

When your partner is passionate about something; whether it's fighting, video games, comic books, collecting, or literally anything... you don't have to share the interest. But you DO have to respect it.
The best relationships aren't built on shared hobbies. They're built on mutual respect for what brings each other joy.
Mark Kerr (Dwayne Johnson) needed someone who understood that his fighting wasn't "just a fight" it was his identity, his purpose, his everything. When your partner says "it's just a [thing]," that's when disconnection starts.
Support what your partner loves, even if you don't get it. That's the foundation.
The Smashing Machine is now in theaters, starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt. Directed by Benny Safdie.

Coleman doesn't shame him or tell him to "man up"βhe creates space for vulnerability.
This is what REAL alpha males do. Not the toxic masculinity you see from Andrew Tate and others in the "alpha male movement"βbut the kind of strength that allows for emotional honesty between men.
Mark Kerr was an actual fighter. A UFC pioneer. Someone who could destroy almost anyone physically. And he had the courage to cry in front of his friend when he needed help.
The Smashing Machine is now in theaters, starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Emily Blunt. Directed by Benny Safdie.
