“The Killing Tree” (*1/2 out of four) was a ridiculous horror thriller about a vindictive widow (Judy Tcherniak) who conjures up a spell to resurrect her executed husband but something goes wrong and the dead husband is brought back as a Christmas tree (!) intent on revenge and murdering those who put him in the grave! What’s next? A Thanksgiving horror movie about a killer turkey??? Obviously stupid premise isn’t even made with any conviction and doesn’t generate any laughs or scares and turns into a real bore. This clunker makes previous holiday horror romps “Jack Frost” and “Silent Night, Deadly Night” almost look like Oscar fare by comparison.
