Trees pays homage to the 1975 classic, Jaws, whose infamous characters, plagued by the threat of a killer great white shark, have been replaced with a cast haunted by a menacing great white pine tree. Like many of its ilk that aspire to be "so bad it's good," the film does have some genuinely funny moments. Life is peaceful in the small town of Hazelville until a man-eating "Great White Pine" plays havoc.
