- jackmeat12. Oktober 2025My quick rating - 3.1/10. I don't have high hopes, but it is that time of year. Justwatch calls it The Killing Tree if you want to stream it. I had to look and see who brought us this silliness, and Rhys Water (Rhys Frake-Waterfield) happens to be the director of the upcoming Winnie the Pooh horror flick. It didn't take long for this to get just goofy and made me think the people behind Thankskilling were afoot LOL. With a possessed Christmas tree walking around, you would think the potential for a so dumb it is funny was on its way, but in truth, it still fails. There are insanely long amounts of time with people blabbering on about nothing, and half of it you cannot hear since the audio quality and mixing are horrible. Voice will be nonexistent while music is blaring. Also, the day vs night inconsistencies and bizarre spotlights are distracting while you are trying to figure out why the killer tree sometimes is as tall as a two-story house, while the next scene is walking around inside the exact same house on the first floor, lol. I guess I should mention the story of how the tree is possessed is shown in flashback scenes that look completely like afterthoughts to just give some sort of explanation. It looks like two old people breaking into houses to stab the owners for being rich or greedy. They don't really explain much. The dialogue from the tree itself should've been really cheeseball, throwing out stupid one-liners, but instead is just repetitive, often saying silly things like "you can't escape" for no reason. But I will say a few of the kills are entertaining enough, along with a strange final battle that had to stretch the effects department to the max. Surely not destined to be a classic at all, and such a wasted good but dumb idea that could've easily succeeded in the B-budget fun category. Instead, far too much time is just blown on the chicks pointlessly talking about nothing. Just not funny enough to be recommended to anyone but the die-hard low-budget fans, yet enough laughs to peek above a #turkey.

Es ist Weihnachten – zu keiner anderen Jahreszeit vermisst die einsam und verbittert in ihrem Herrenhaus lebende Witwe Magna (Gillian Broderick) ihren verstorbenen Gatten mehr als zum Fest der Liebe. Deshalb beschließt sie, einen uralten Beschwörungsspruch anzuwenden, der ihn zurück ins Leben holen soll. Doch der Zauber geht schief und ihr Mann kehrt nicht in seiner menschlichen Form, sondern als bösartiger Weihnachtsbaum zurück. Im Handumdrehen terrorisiert eine mit Lichterketten, Kugeln, aber offenbar auch langen Messern geschmückte, blutrünstige Tanne die Nachbarschaft. Das erstaunlich mobile Nadelholz ist wild entschlossen, sich an all denjenigen zu rächen, die es für das Ende seiner früheren Existenz verantwortlich macht. An erster Stelle auf der Liste des gnadenlos und immer einfallsreicher tötenden Killerbaums scheint die junge Cindy (May Kelly) zu stehen …
