spooky tuesday is a (now not so new!) podcast where we’re breaking down all of our favorite slashers, thrillers, monster movies and black comedies on the new scariest day of the week.

where were you that april if you weren't seeing disturbia (2007) in theaters? it was the year of shia, and a new creepy classic was emerging out of the mid-aughts. this flick is a quintessential millennial movie, an updated take on hitchcock's rear window (though legally we should warn you that we're not speaking literally, because there's like legit drama there). it also shares a name with an iconic rihanna song that'll get stuck in your head faster than you can ask, “what's wrong with me? why do I feel like this?" on our latest episode of spooky tuesday, we're doing our best not to break into song too much as we throw it back to our earlier horror days.

give spooky tuesday a listen on apple podcasts, spotify, iheart radio, or stitcher

Robert Turner | New Neighbor

Author’s Note: It still shocks me that Robert is not more popular amongst the slasher/horror community since David Morse is the total daddy package. Him as Detective Tritter in House was good too even though he was a total ass.

• You just moved into the neighborhood. Two weeks, to be precise, according to his memory. He remembers everyone who comes and goes, who he should avoid and who could one day pose as a problem.

• You, on the other hand, were like him in many ways. You kept to yourself and preferred privacy more than most. He liked that. You weren’t nosey or looking to make friendly conversation just for the sake of it. Apart from the polite smiles and waves, there was barely any interaction.

• You enjoy being outside. He does too. While you like to sit on your porch swing and listen to music or read or whatever activity suits you that day, he is hunched over his garden pulling weeds and working up a sweat. He finds a mole in his garden. He holds it up debating on what to do.

• “Are you going to kill it?”

• It was you peeking over the fence awaiting his answer. To be honest he was quite surprised to see you had spoken to him so he didn’t answer right away.

• “He was in my garden. He is ruining my yard.”

• “But are you going to kill it?”

• He looked down at the mole desperately trying to dig through his gloved hand. He had considered disposing of the animal.

• “Do you not want me to?”

• You shook your head and held out your hand. He dropped the small creature into your palm.

• “If I catch him in my garden again I won’t give him back.”

• You smiled appreciatively and walked away hugging the mole to your chest and he went back to tending his flowers.

• You had a boy over recently. Interesting. He doesn’t seem like your type, but then again he wouldn’t really know what your type was, now would he? He doesn’t mean to pry, but you did not look like you were enjoying yourself. He understands. He too found it difficult to truly connect with people. They all eventually became…disposable after so long.

• You did not take the boy up to your bedroom. He is pleased. He was not the one for you. He knows this because your smile did not light up the room like it usually did. It never even reached your eyes. Soon you were leading him to the door, but he was a persistent one, wasn’t he? He detested people like that. Disrespectful. Eventually the message becomes clear and he leaves and you lean against the door in relief.

• You had nothing to worry about though. He was watching over you and had the boy not left he would have planned to randomly show up asking for butter or sugar that he had supposedly ran out of at that precise moment.

• Your bedroom, believe it or not, sits directly in front is his and often times he would see you toss and turn at night. Nightmare, perhaps? Dare he be that bold to assume you were dreaming of him? Was he chasing you around in your house carrying a blade, lurking around corners, waiting for the perfect moment to attack? He leans in closer to the window.

• And does he catch you?

NSFW 18+

• And sometimes, if he studies the curtains just right, he can see your figure laying in bed, hand working fast beneath the sheets. He knows what you’re doing and to his shame as a mature, somewhat older man, he become hard. He reaches beneath his own sheets to work himself, matching your rhythm. While he knows you’re not, he imagines that you’re thinking of him. That you can see him clearly through the obscure curtains. Your eyes are pleading for him to come over and up to your bedroom, the very same bedroom that you denied access to someone else earlier.

• Your back arches and he knows you are close. You are beautiful, he admits. Younger, yes, but you seem to have your head on your shoulders and he respects this immensely. He is close now too and as you moan out your release, he looks up at the ceiling and jerks his cock, splattering into his hand. Oh dear, what a mess you’ve caused him to make.

• He dreamt of you last night. He is in his bedroom laying in bed watching tv when you climb on top of him so very delicately. Where did you come from? He doesn’t know, but you’re holding onto his headboard for dear life, steadily bouncing on him. When you start going too fast he corrects you, placing his hands on your hips to slow you down.

• And you follow his command so perfectly. Is that what you yearn for? Guidance? Love? Acceptance? He could only give you two of those things, but would that be enough? You look through your curtain of hair and ask if you could finally come and he couldn’t find it in himself to deny you. You wrap your arms around his neck for support as you begin riding him urgently until you’re shaking in his arms.

• To say he was disappointed when he woke up alone would be a grand understatement.

• He is out mowing his lawn this morning. You see him and wave. He waves back. These brief interactions would be enough.

• For now.

Disturbia (2007) Movie Review

Disturbia – Movie Review Director: D.J. Caruso Writer: Christopher Landon, Carl Ellsworth (Screenplay) Cast Shia LaBeouf (Peanut Butter Falcon) Sarah Roemer (Fired Up!)

I'm trying to do this thing where I watch a movie every weekend. This Sunday, it was Disturbia. It's quite strange that I hadn't seen this movie till yesterday. Netflix put this up on their "trending" list and I had to check it out because of Shia LaBeouf. Gotta say, I only have a soft spot for him because I grew up watching Even Stevens on Nickelodeon. And the Transformers movies were all great (very little credit to him, if I'm being honest).

This was fast paced, with minimal melodrama for the YA-audience from 2007. Shia's acting was pretty good. I can safely say that the movie was predictable right off the bat - but that still did not ruin the experience of watching it.

Horror is Queer

Horror has always had queer creators behind and infront of it.

F.W. Murnau directed Nosferatu (1922)

James Whale directed Frankenstein (1931), The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), The Invisible Man (1933), The Old Dark House (1932).

Clive Barker is a well known horror writer, I know Stephen King isn't the only one shocking. He's also directed some of his own work, notably, Hellraiser (1987), Nightbreed (1990), and Lord of Illusions (1995).

Kevin Williamson is the creator of Dawson's Creek, as well as, the screenwriter of Scream (1996), I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), The Faculty (1998), and Sick (2022). He also did a treatment for and produced Halloween: H20 (1998).

Don Mancini is responsible for the Child's Play/Chucky franchise. He also wrote the screenplay for Dweller Celler (1998).

Eliva is a goth, camp, queen, ICON! She's a horror host, and lifestyle.

Christopher Landon wrote the screenplays for Disturbia (2007), Paranormal Activity 2, 3, 4, Next of Kin, and the Marked Ones which he also directed. He wrote and directed Scouts Guide to Zombie Apocalypse (2015), Happy Death Day (2017) and it's sequel (2019), Freaky (2020), oh and he's slated to direct Scream 7!

Bryan Fuller was the showrunner of NBC's Hannibal and is now working on the Friday the 13th prequel series, Crystal Lake.

Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstien.

Daphne Du Maurier wrote Rebecca and a short story that would become The Birds. Hitchcock was clearly a fan.

Joel Schumacher directed The Lost Boys. Meanwhile Tom Holland made Fright Night which might be the queerest vampire movie ever made... huh.

Gus Van Sant... well he directed the Psycho remake... so that happened...

Carter Smith directed Ruins (2008), Swallowed (2022), The Passenger (2023), and a few others. OH and Swallowed has Mark Patton from Nightmare On Elm Street II: Freddy's Revenge.

I'm sure I missed some.

Then you get into some phenomenal actors...

Disturbia (2007) has the most Girl Next Door Girl that I've ever suffered

[unhonest-iago]

Some whump/whump-adjacent stuff I liked before knowing what whump is.

Most of Criminal Minds, specifically Spencer’s character. The Tobias Hankel storyline + the ep. where he gets anthrax. That and some of the unsubs. Then the one marionette episode that was of course directed by MGG. But also Penelope shooting the one guy to protect Spencer.

There was this one Dan & Phil fic on Wattpad where one of them gets the other flowers & places them as a table centerpiece; sweet peas. And the other has a panic attack, not cause of the flowers themselves but b/c a toxic ex used to call him sweet pea as a pet name. Think the fic was even called sweet pea.

[Edit; Found it again while looking for the clips to make into gifs.]

There was also this one book I read eons ago w/ an unreliable narrator where you're following her along, thinking she eats, sleeps, and breathes being a participant in experimental studies. But towards the end, it's revealed that she's in a psych ward as a mentally ill patient. All the studies you've been tagging along with as the reader was simply a form of psychosis for this character. I unfortunately don't remember the name of it.

I think the movie is Disturbia (2007) but basically the main guy’s on house arrest & is a peeping tom towards his neighbor. And through this, he also finds out that another neighbor is a murderer. But there’s this one chase scene towards the end that’s just ingrained in my memory.

The episode of Outlander where Roger is reliving the hanging as a form of ptsd and it's just a black and white silent film. And later on, Roger stops Ian from killing himself. Also that show is just chalk full of whump.

The tragedy that is Jinx & Viktor characters in arcane. When Jinx ties Silco and Vi up at the dinner table and is monologuing about how Silco wasn't the one to create Jinx—Vi was. + Jinx using the punching game that she used to watch Vi do all the time. When Viktor gets desperate and ends up injecting himself with shimmer.
