Treehouse

Treehouse is a 2014 American horror film directed by Michael Bartlett, written by Alex Child and Miles Harrington, and starring J. Michael Trautmann, Dana Melanie, Daniel Fredrick, and Clint James. Teens attempt to escape a treehouse back to the safety of their town after going out after a curfew. Plot On the outskirts of a small town, a teenage girl named Elizabeth returns home one day to find that her house has been broken into and her younger brother, Little Bob, has been abducted. She chases the kidnappers into the woods with a rifle, but fails to catch up with them when she steps on broken glass and hurts her foot. Elizabeth and Bob are both declared missing and a curfew is set for the youth of the town. Killian, a teenage boy in town, is frequently bullied, and is defended by his older brother, Crawford. They live with their Aunt Marsha after their father, an abusive traumatized war veteran, died, and their mother’s health deteriorated significantly. One weekend, while Marsha is away, Crawford persuades Killian to join him and his friends in the woods for a party. The brothers arrive in the woods in the evening, only to realize that they ended up in a different place from Crawford’s friends. Crawford spies an old treehouse high up in a tree and convinces Killian to climb up with him, where they discover a shaken Elizabeth. Killian recognizes her as one of the missing people, and she hastily explains that there are creatures in the woods and they’re searching for her. She says that she managed to escape them by climbing into the treehouse, and they haven’t found her yet.
