Killer Tree Monster

Ted Tarbet · January 28, 2003, 02:10:28 AM

Does anyone know the title of (and how to obtain) a 50's or 60's horror flick about a tree monster (no, not from The Wizard of Oz, although those tree monsters probably inspired this flick). They finally killed it in the end with a spear thru the heart? I think it then fell into some quicksand. My memory's kind of hazy about it. I do remember it scaring me as a kid and then laughing at it as a teenager.

Do you happen to know where I could find a VHS or disk of this lovely flick?

It's only available on the gray market, but I know of a source. If you're interested, e-mail me.

I love killer trees movies. The concept is so odd! One day, someone will create the ultimate killer tree movie.

Arf!

Hey, what about those tree creatures in The Lord of The Rings 2. I would love to see them have a Hobbit lunch.

Yes. It's called "From Hell It Came" I think. There was a JAWS parody not too long ago called "Trees". I've seen neither, but I want to.
