Replacing Rachael Leigh Cook with a Tree
 |
It sounds like a bad Twitter trend. Instead, it’s a fan film so ill-conceived that I kinda love its audacity. Take a movie nobody has cared about in at least a decade, give it a twist that’s idiotic, shoot the whole thing with production and sound quality so low that nobody could ever mistake it for an actual trailer…and then even though your concept is nuts, commit to it fully.
The result is “Tree’s All That,” in which a handsome high-schooler falls in love with a tree. Surprisingly, no joke about getting wood…though they make every other one.
Watch after the jump, if you share my taste in bad.
