A distraught woman- pining over the death of her recently executed partner in crime and love- desperately tries to reincarnate him, by undertaking a ritual designed to release his soul from his ashes.
However, things don't go exactly as planned.
As he ends up possessing the Christmas tree.
Which gives him a chance to hunt down and kill the one that got away...as The Killing Tree.
Despite the fact the whole demonic anthropomorphic tree slasher trope has been done before- most notably in the awesome Christmas horror short, Treevenge (but also in Twas The Night Of The Tree Beast)- this was much more entertaining than it should of been.
Especially considering most of the gore and action are facilitated with CGI effects.
Part of it's charm comes from the fact that it doesn't take itself too seriously, though.
Most explicit when the Christmas star is used as a shuriken, with no effort made to hide the string that it's on.
Having been released by the same company that brought us the Krampus series...I went in to this with relatively low expectations.
And it, at least, managed to surpass those.
Though, with that being said...there's not much depth to the story...and the character development is rather poor.
But if you don't go in expecting much from it...it's certainly worth a watch for a few laughs, and bit of mindless entertainment.
Just realize that Treevenge is still the better of the killer Christmas tree horrors (and packs more entertainment in 9 minutes, than this does in 70).
But it is what it is.
3 out of 10.
