What People Are Saying
-
Arbor Day: The Root of Evil is six times the fun in just over an hour. Arbor Day doesn’t hold back, and sure-as-hell doesn’t let a small budget get in the way.
LET’S TALK TERROR

Arbor Day The Root of Evil is a ton of fun. It's a low budget slasher, yes, but it has a ton of camp and a ton of whimsy. At its core is the Arborist, who is immediately iconic both in his actions and his design.

When watching this, it really gave me that. Tales from the crypt vibe...and honestly, it's just a fun horror movie. It's a love letter to all those great campy horror films that we love.
