[Trees](https://horrornews.net/105368/film-review-trees/)! I’ve only heard about it, (k)not yet seen it! With a title like that it’s sad I couldn’t think of it.

Resurrecting this (no Christmas pun intended haha) to say that I just watched this on Amazon Prime the other day and LOVED it. It was hilarious, violent, and had a heart. David Harbour was great. Over the top silly, but thoroughly entertaining, and for me, a new Christmas classic.

They’re advertising an incredibly scary Christmas movie right now. I haven’t watched the whole commercial because the very idea of John Travolta playing Santa Clause frightens me so much.
