Storyline
All's quiet in the small Vermont town of Hazelville as Memorial Day approaches until a string of mysterious deaths begin plaguing forest ranger Mark Cody. As hikers and campers turn up dead, Cody struggles to figure out what's behind the murders while the Mayor looks to keep the deaths hush-hush, afraid it will affect tourism on the town's biggest money-making day of the year. Botanist Max Cooper arrives and determines them to have been victims of the dreaded "Great White Pine." After the Mayor refuses to close the woods and tragedy ensues on Memorial Day, Cody hires grizzled lumberjack Squint to hunt down and kill the voracious tree leading to Cody, Cooper, and Squint venturing out into the woods in Squint's old beat-up pick-up truck for a final showdown with the monster tree.

Trivia
The movie is a
Jaws parody and many lines are direct references: "That's the thing about trees... they're silent like the night! They don't make a noise... they just stand there." "Everyone out of the woods!" "This was no lawnmower accident!" "We tell them there's a killer tree on the loose, and you've got pandemonium on Memorial Day!" "Jim, if you open up those campgrounds on Memorial Day, well, it's like opening up a buffet, for chrissakes!" "Apparently, a great white pine has staked its claim to the woods around Hazelville." "A cage won't work with that tree!" "Didn't they say on TV they caught the tree?" "You're gonna need a bigger axe."
