Dean Koontz is Tree Dogs

Wednesday, May 28, 2008

Told you I'd end up watching this one again soon.

This whole Tree Dogs concept is great, and has really taken on a life of its own with my friends. It's become a cult classic entirely of our own devising.

I think the appeal of Tree Dogs is its basic competence. The direction is mostly adequete for this kind of movie, and the cast is passable. And it seems like everyone's actually trying, not just phoning it in. But it's all in service of really stupid, unscary ideas and a terrible screenplay. Which I think just helps emphasize how bad everything is.

Phun Phact: Hill Harper, the token black guy in this movie, was like 40 when they made it even though he's playing a college student.
