“Treehouse starts well and the opening scene suggests this may be a small budget gem however any hope of this is quickly extinguished. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe 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. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTreehouse changes direction at the drop of the hat as if the writer didnu0026#39;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.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAlthough itu0026#39;s a pretty poor film, itu0026#39;s not a total write off as there are at least a couple of decent scenes and some of the filming is quite good. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI canu0026#39;t really recommend this film and am probably being a bit generous giving it a 5 but I have seen far worse films.”
