“It’s lean as a hellhound.” (Austin Chronicle)
“Pacy, clever, and most importantly, creepy as all hell; Shelby Oaks both is and isn’t what you’re expecting, announcing Chris Stuckmann as a very promising new voice in horror.” (HeyUGuys)
“The edge-of-your-seat thrills, impeccable sound design, thoughtfully crafted cinematography, and powerhouse performances bring to life the tragic tale of Riley Brennan in a feature that is sure to become a must-watch for all horror fans.” (FILMHOUNDS Magazine)
“Chris Stuckmann makes his directorial debut with a film that blends horror documentary, found footage, and narrative feature into a singular vision.” (Loud and Clear Reviews)
“Newer genre fans will likely respond to Shelby Oaks with big smiles on their faces. It’s a very well-made film, with plenty of clever twists and turns and no real lulls in the increasingly complex narrative.” (ScreenAnarchy)
“There is an era of Aughts horror, brimming with creepypasta web stories, short-form scary films, and rentable DVD rip-offs and reboots, that hasn’t received the same reverence as other time periods. And Stuckmann plays in that time period well.” (Fangoria)
