    Trees & Trees 2: The Root of All Evil

    TREES



    Life is peaceful in the small town of Hazelville until a man-eating Great White Pine makes the Memorial Day campers into a holiday feast. With an ingenious scheme forest ranger Mark Cody (Kevin McCauley), botanist Max Cooper (Philip Gardiner) and Squint the lumberjack (Peter Randazzo) turn the buffet table around on the killer tree. A little bit of horror and a ton of laughs makes TREES hit with the force of an axe!

    It's bite is worse than it's bark!






    TREES 2: THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL



    "Root Of All Evil" is the sequel to the first feature film "TREES," in which Ranger Mark Cody enlisted the aid of botanist Max Cooper and crazed lumberjack Squint to hunt down and kill a rogue Great White Pine tree that had been killing campers in the quiet resort town of Hazelville. Suspecting another killer tree rampage during Christmas time, Ranger Cody is belittled by authorities and the public alike as being paranoid and obsessed. With a team of National Forestry Service agents pressuring him to drop the subject entirely, Cody nonetheless partners again with botanist Max Cooper to find the truth. They soon discover that an entire crop of young killer trees have been poached from a restricted NFS area and sold to the townspeople of Hazelville as Christmas trees. On Christmas Eve, the killer trees run amok and the carnage is horrific.



    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    Well since everyone was drooling over Jason Eisener's "Treevenge" like a bunch of retards in heat, I figured I should make a post about the original killer tree movies

    Basically, both movies are stupid-fun. "Trees" is a straight-up parody of "Jaws" only this time about a man-eating Great White Pine, although in the movie trees attacking people is nothing new as there have been previously recorded cases of it happening before. While it is a parody, filled with plenty of dumb-reference jokes, it does have its own unique sense of humor that helps make it quite enjoyable. Obviously an ultra low-budget effort but still entertaining all the same.

    While Trees 2 obviously had a bigger budget, considering it had CGI trees terrorizing a whole town. It's more of a comedy-horror flick this time around rather than just a parody, but it still has a fair amount of parody gags. Just as funny as the first flick and what's really interesting is they managed to bring everyone back from the first movie. Even side characters that didn't have much to do with the first one are in the sequel.

    The only complaint I have about both movie is there is absolutely no gore in them. A bit of blood splashing in the sequel but not much else.

    By the by,

    Both "Trees" and "Trees 2" are in the "Catacomb of Creepshows" box set. Its one of those 50 low-budget film box sets that sell for around $20. Enjoy...

    Squint :lol2:

    I'm a big Jaws fan and I have a friend who is too. I have a feeling we're in for a real treat (pun intended) with these 2 movies.
