Do you remember having a favorite tree growing up? Maybe you shared your first kiss underneath its leafy branches, rested against its gnarled bark while reading your favorite paperbacks, or even used it as the safe spot in games of base tag with your friends. Well, the titular timber in Curse of the Witching Tree isn’t that type of tree, and in his feature film directing debut, James Crow effectively shows its horrifying historical roots.
Siblings Emma and Jake Thorson weren’t thrilled about moving to St. Jonas farm in the first place, but they find more to fear than feeding the pigs when the spirits of nine slain children begin to pop up on the grounds. Unfortunately for the teenager and her younger brother, their mom isn’t buying into their supernatural theories—she’s understandably preoccupied with the condition of her husband, who’s been in a...

Director/writer: James Crow. Cast: Sarah Rose Denton, Lucy Clarvis and Lawrence Weller. Curse of the Witching Tree is an indie production. Shot in the United Kingdom and set in Kent, this title brings a spirit to a remote farm. Here, a couple of seance scenes offer some tension, but several, other scenes feel stretched. The pacing is consistently up-tempo. However, this viewer's attention started to drift, with the appearance of cheap scares and burlap sack-headed antagonists. Curse of the Witching Tree will release in the UK, shortly and only the most die-hard of indie horror fans will want to take notice. The story begins with a desperate family. The head of the family, the father, is waylaid in bed and in a coma. A mother, sister and brother are tasked with running a farm, which is inhabited by the dead; this is no easy task. Security cameras create a few bumps in the night.
