 I found this movie on utube while scanning through videos while i was at my daughters soccer practice and i had to get up and walk away from the other parents cause i was laughing so hard. Right from the get-go this movie is pure brilliance, fouled mouthed lumber jacks descend on a hillside of soon to be christmas trees, this scene alone is enough to make this movie great, but when the trees decide to fight back on christmas day, thats when the gory fun starts , no one is safe from the onslot of violent revenge these trees take on the people who keep them captive in their houses over christmas. This is definatly one of the best short horror films ever made and is not to be missed , and after you watch it, and wipe the tears of joy from your eyes, you will never, ever, look at a christmas tree the same again.
