A girl finds a mysterious Ancient Chinese box that grants her 7 wishes, but blood must be paid each time.
This means that someone she knows dies per use. Wish Upon is a terribly confusing horror movie, not because of the premise, but because of the editing errors, the inconsistencies, the unrealistic dialogue and characters, plus strange special effects.
It can be quite laughable at times, especially when you and a group of friends are constantly pointing out the errors in each scene. Wish Upon is one of those so bad it’s good kind of films which takes itself seriously.
Although it is not on the same caliber like say, Troll 2(1990), The Room(2003) and Birdemic(2010) in terms of quality, Wish Upon is with agreement one of the more recent ones worth tearing down, although frankly, we all know that there are countless amounts of bad horrors released annually, although few have the "so bad it's good" seal of approval.
It also reminds me of one of my own draft ideas about a story and/or video game regarding wishes, but I'm not ready to talk fully about that or my other ideas, yet. Maybe one of these days, my personal wish shall be fulfilled about giving myself enough free time to write a story, or create a video game.
