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.
