After a twisted psychopath is murdered, an evil entity targets the current lineage of those responsible to husk, and kill them to sate his revenge.

I've no idea what 'shucking means' - so it depends - do you expect your readers / producers / directors to look up words in their dictionaries - or do you only want to attract those who know the word. Being English (forgive me) it just reminds me of shucks and Shaggy from Scooby Doo. Movie sounds cool though, like Children of the Corn.

Isn't that the whole idea? To stir your imaginings by using words and phrases that are not cliche? "Skinning" has been done; "shucking" is fresh, nasty and just sounds more painful!

Why not just say "skinning" his prey alive instead of "shucking". Shucking makes me think of oysters not people.
