Treehouse is a suspense thriller from four time feature film director Michael Bartlett (The Zombie Diaries). The film was adapted to screen from Alex Child and Miles Harrington’s script. Currently at the Cannes Film Festival, an opportunity to review this film early was provided to this film fan and some thoughts on Treehouse are hosted here.

Thoroughly suspenseful, Treehouse is a well-paced thriller, which brings a lot of emotion to the screen. A supernatural or malicious physical element is plaguing a pair of teenagers and tension is built by this threatening element. This title is a standout indie feature, because of its attention to directing techniques and the performances provided by actors J. Michael Trautmann and Dana Melanie. Treehouse is a very creepy feature, which needs to reach a wide audience.

The story begins with a double kidnapping. Early scenes show the character Elizabeth (Melanie) looking for her younger brother, Little Bob (Jake Gregory). Instead of her brother, Elizabeth finds a strange character on her isolated ranch; she gives chase. Then, the film transitions to new characters and settings. Brothers Killian (J. Michael Trautmann) and Crawford (Daniel Fredrick) are out in the woods for a night of fun. But, fun does not come knocking. Instead, these two brothers find Elizabeth frightened and wounded in a large treehouse. Mysterious shadows in the forest below suggest that someone or something is out to get them.
