Leave your thoughts about Cherry Tree.
| We Got This CoveredMatt DonatoCherry Tree is a story of witchcraft that's stuck on fast-forward as it zooms ahead with a disappointing attention to plotting (in favor of gore and centipedes). |
| Village VoiceNick SchagerThis ungainly B movie makes virtually no sense in terms of either mythology or basic plotting. |
| Projected FiguresAnton BitelYou may go in... hoping for the baroque irrationality of Dario Argento's Suspiria, the stylised mother of all witchcraft movies, but what you get instead is something closer to the shrill silliness of Suspiria's belated sequel The Mother of Tears. |
| The Ooh TrayEd WhitfieldBrendan McCarthy's script is a cliché stack, the heroine's a blank and the villains are paper tigers. |
| User ReviewAllan CA weak, clichéd blend of AHS Coven and (a teen version of) Rosemary's Baby that makes little sense and a final scene that is so shockingly crap it defies belief. |
| User ReviewDavid SA whole film extrapolated from someone's sketch-book doodle of centipedes and cherries. The premise was ridiculous and things went steadily downhill from there. |
