I am not sure if i am adding spoilers, but here is what to expect when you watch this movie( apologies beforehand for people who did not want these spoilers):
1. A tree-house: so you can hide in it in the middle of a forest to avoid harm coming your way and of course no one will think to go up and look for you there
2. Asthmatic dark figures: so they can forewarn their presence by breathing heavily down the doorway while you just slide in the shadow so no one can see you
3. Bunch of kids using radio: because you don't want the killers to hear you yelling at each other from a distance.. yet you do..
4. a psychological breakdown: Right in the middle of an imminent crisis where your repressed childhood memories decide to take you over and you manage to resolve those issues RIGHT THEN, and you rise like a phoenix from the ashes to save the day
5. A pretty girl: so she can call a just met perfect stranger "baby bear" or similar by the end of the day and acts like its perfectly the norm but i guess stranger things have happened...in the movie that is
6. A bunch of killers: who look like they never had a shower in their lives, who have no speech in between them except for grunts and wild gesticulations and it makes you wonder more about their upbringing rather than the plot of the entire movie
so no, the movie is not good enough for people looking for serious horror, although the stupidity of the characters in the movie is pretty horrifying!

what to expect
A poor script sinks any promise
Treehouse starts well and the opening scene suggests this may be a small budget gem however any hope of this is quickly extinguished.
The premise is decent, young adults and children are being kidnapped and it all seems linked to a strange tree house. Unfortunately a very poor script never even gets close to tapping the films potential. There are plenty of superfluous scenes that add little or nothing to the story.
Treehouse changes direction at the drop of the hat as if the writer didn't quite know what he wanted the film to be, slasher, supernatural or gritty thriller. As a result we just get a jumbled mess of a film that is at times confusing and at times boring.
Although it's a pretty poor film, it's not a total write off as there are at least a couple of decent scenes and some of the filming is quite good.
I can't really recommend this film and am probably being a bit generous giving it a 5 but I have seen far worse films.
Pain!
Just how do these awful films keep getting made? It's something that tends to happen a lot in the horror genre, though calling Treehouse a horror movie is a bit of stretch.
It's difficult to grasp just what the makers were going for since the film goes nowhere fast and quickly loses focus to the point that nothing much makes sense. It starts off promising enough, with a nice musical score and some nifty location photography work. Then it piles on the exposition, throws in some poor acting, all building towards a laughable finale that is most certainly not worth waiting for - and again the reveal doesn't make any sense given what had happened earlier in the piece.
Poor and best avoided unless you want to feel angry? 2/10
