Josh Bell Crooked Marquee Undermines the horror with a cop-out ending that turns the movie into a glum meditation on grief. Rated: C Dec 14, 2022 Full Review Amanda Mazzillo Film Inquiry The Killing Tree had the potential to be an over-the-top Holiday horror classic, but the practical effects moments are overshadowed by bad CGI and a lack of creative kills utilizing the unique elements of a faux Christmas tree come to life. Nov 17, 2022 Full Review Joel Fisher Battle Royale With Cheese On paper The Killing Tree sounds like a great idea, but in reality it should have been made by more experienced filmmakers to release its full potential. Nov 3, 2022 Full Review Daniel M. Kimmel North Shore Movies As if the British haven’t had enough troubles this year, the English-made THE KILLING TREE breaks new ground, so to speak, in having a decorated Christmas tree become inhabited by an executed killer. Rated: 1.5/5 Nov 2, 2022 Full Review Matt Donato IGN Movies The Killing Tree decks the halls with holiday horror absurdity that hits the expected highs and lows of a killer Christmas tree slasher. Rated: 6/10 Nov 1, 2022 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com Tree activity almost becomes an afterthought for the feature, which is certain to gift disappointment to anyone electing to spend time with a seriously unadventurous endeavor. Rated: D Oct 29, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
