I didn't really liked The Body Tree. Maybe I expected too much of it. The story is just not that great to keep you interested, at least not for me. And that was due to some really annoying characters. Plus the acting was not good from everybody. The characters are basically arguing and yelling during almost the entire movie, trying to find out who's the murderer, and at one point I couldn't care less who was the murderer. The plot was also not the greatest I ever saw. Maybe it could have been better with another cast and characters. It's also obvious that this is not Siberia so that's also a thing that bothers me. Just do some research and find a right place for it if you want it to look like Siberia.

We thought we would give this movie a shot but we turned it off straight away. The fact that they filmed in Southern California was so evident from the first time they stopped the car. Everything about the scenes screamed Cali, from the outside of the farm area to inside the house. There was absolutely nothing that said Russia or Siberia at all. That right there spoiled the whole movie. I know I wouldn't be able to see past it.

Love can be a dangerous obsession! Would have been better as a normal murder story. Loved the drone pic from Altai mountains, sadly the rest was not shot there easy to see!

The writers and everyone else involved with creating the plot had a good idea, they just didn't go about writing it very well. They characters weren't introduced very well so it was hard to keep track of who was who and they did a horrible job explaining what happened to their friend that caused them to wind up in Siberia in the first place other than that she inexplicably ended up dead.

This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
The first thing to say about the film is that the acting is something terrible and terrible and for this reason alone the film deserves to be destroyed rather than watched, then the plot is very banal and in any case so convoluted as to be unnecessarily complicated to understand. But it's complicated because it doesn't make any sense and the ending then has a twist which to say is stupid is to give it a compliment because it's completely useless and it claims to explain the film with a little final explanation that makes everything even more senseless and ugly.

I got bored and didn't bother finishing it.
I skipped to the end to find out whodunnit and was annoyed at that too.

The Body Tree is heavily influenced by films such as Ten Little Indians, and The Thing, with a group of people in an isolated location trying to second guess who the killer is. However, the plot turns things on their head in an original way.
Yes it's got plenty of cliched jump scares and slasher movie stereotypes, but this is definitely one of the better horrors I've seen in recent years. The Siberian setting (not the snowbound variety) is distinctive, the acting is decent enough, and the characters are developed enough to have some investment in their fates. Admittedly some are unpleasant.
The group are brought together to celebrate the life of a mutual friend who was murdered. There are some flashbacks that reveal more of the events of that incident, and it keeps the story flowing and entertaining.
It's well worth a watch, and I'm surprised it hasn't had a more positive reaction.

I'm a thriller junkie and I liked that this film did something different. Not a perfect movie but I liked that it kept me guessing. Some really tense scenes and back and forth dialogue. Not for everyone I'm sure but if you're like me and looking for something different in horror, something more suspenseful, this is a cool twist.

The problem with Body tree is it doesn't know what it wants to be- a horror or a murder thriller and ultimately it ends up being neither. This is a problem with a lot of indie films- they lack a vision and blueprint. (Avoid it)

It keeps you guessing, its well shot, and the acting is not horrible.
A horror/murder mystery that I enjoyed, give it a shot.

Was totally into the flick. Saw on Amazon. Thought I knew who did it, then thought again, and again, still surprised. More suspense thriller with touches of dark comedy than horror. Liked that it had a lot of twists and turns and covered young people being hunted in the woods in a new way. A good watch!

Loved this movie. All these crazy characters trying to solve a murder and they're all torn in different directions about what to do and who's to blame...until it's too late. It's got some of the usual of horror but also dark humor and mystery like a Hitchcock.
