People may not be so quick to put up the Christmas tree this year after watching The Killing Tree, an all-new comedy-horror movie that’s literally about a killer Christmas tree. Now available on Digital from Uncork’d Entertainment, The Killing Tree will certainly be one of the strangest movies you’ll ever see. To catch a sneak peek at the feature film, you can watch the official trailer below.
The official synopsis for the movie reads:
On Christmas Eve, a scorn widow casts an ancient spell to resurrect her executed husband. However, when the spell goes wrong, the husband is brought back as an Evil Christmas Tree. Hell-bent on getting revenge on the one who caused his execution, the body count keeps rising as the Tree hunts her down. Can anyone stop this killer Christmas tree before he gets to his target?
The Killing Tree is directed by Rhys Frake-Waterfield. It stars Sarah Alexandra Marks, Marcus Massey, Judy Tcherniak, Sarah T. Cohen, Kelly Rian Sanson, Ella Starbuck, Lauren Staerck, May Kelly, Nikolai Leon, Richard Harfst, and Gillian Broderick.
The Killing Tree is for Fans of Krampus
The Killing Tree was originally shot under the name Demonic Christmas Tree, and with a name like that, it’s clear from the start that the filmmakers had an incredibly interesting idea. Rhys Frake-Waterfield, who directed the film, is also behind the anticipated movie Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey, which reimagines the friendly bear as a murderous monster. That film will now be heading to theaters after generating enough interest online with its bizarre premise. Frake-Waterfield is also planning to do another film with a similar that idea that puts a horror movie spin on Peter Pan.
But for now, The Killing Tree can be seen from the indie filmmaker. Teasing The Killing Tree, Uncork’d Entertainment President Keith Leopard said, “A super fun horror tale, with some great scares and devilish humor, The Killing Tree is undoubtedly going to be very popular with audiences. If you loved Krampus, you’ll want to put it on your must-see list.”
Krampus was a holiday-themed horror comedy film released in 2015. Starring Toni Collette and Adam Scott, the film follows the mythical Christmas creature Krampus tormenting a neighborhood when he’s resurrected during the holiday season. There have been many holiday horror movies to be released over the years, though Krampus still remains one of the most popular to arrive in recent memory.
