NEON Drops Final Shelby Oaks Trailer Ahead of Oct. 24 Theatrical Release

The YouTuber-turned-filmmaker’s crowdfunded debut moves from festival buzz to a wide rollout under NEON.

Overview

  • Bloody Disgusting and NEON will host free sneak-preview screenings on October 8 in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Houston, San Francisco, Orlando and Phoenix.
  • Shelby Oaks became Kickstarter’s highest-funded horror feature with support from 14,720 backers, and a new poster from NEON features their names as a tribute.
  • Executive producer Mike Flanagan joined during post-production, and NEON financed reshoots that added more gore and tightened the cut.
  • The film blends documentary, found-footage and traditional narrative styles to follow Mia’s search for her missing sister amid a growing supernatural mystery.
  • After stops at Fantasia, FrightFest and Fantastic Fest, the R-rated film continues building word-of-mouth ahead of its nationwide release.
