      Varden L Man, this movie was just a pile of crap. It couldn't decide if it wanted to be like the old horror movie Wishmaster, or another slasher crap movie like scream. I almost felt bad for Meatloaf, and Zelda Rubinstein who I've definitely enjoyed in other movies. For this one, though they should've turned it down both of them. It was horrible. it was all over the place in the plot. The storyline was just plain sloppy with lazy acting all around to boot. To make matters worse with the plot, when it's revealed that the bulls penis totem that they wish upon was a novelty item purchased for $100, the kids still believe it's real. what the hell is going on here? Don't waste the time on this movie because you'll never get it back. It's just not worth it because it's that bad. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/28/23 Full Review Tidders W Just watched this on Tubi. I didn't like the no repressions or consequences for his actions, the whole non consensual relationship, how he ditched everyone for her. She never gave her consent. She never removed the spell because his spell was for her to love him and have a lifelong relationship. She made it abundantly clear that she wasn't into him and she even friendzoned him. She would have been unable to remove the spell herself, because she was forced to think that's what she wanted. I loved the other parts of the movie. I feel like the both of the main character should have been killed off and the teacher should have survived and kept passing it on. Maybe passed it on onto someone who truly really wanted revenge vengeance and power. I saw this movie when I was a teenager and thought it was cute and wonderful...but the adult in me now sees it wasn't such a good movie...with really no lesson learned or remorse. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the worst horror films I have ever seen. I was not sure if this was meant to be funny or serious. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member pretty lame movie, idea was good but it was very poorly executed, it just got kind of pathetic tbh. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member BOTTOM LINE: It's predictable, boring, and the special effects are terrible. Then again, it was on Lifetime... <a href="http://tinypic.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i48.tinypic.com/v6i3w0.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a> I'm not even gonna waste my time writing a long review on "Wishcraft." It's one of those movies where once you see it, you're happy to move on and never watch it again. I will tell you that it's about this guy named Brett, played by Michael Weston (whom I really like as the P.I. and Cuddy's boyfriend on "House") who gets this magical totem in the mail that grants him three wishes of his choice. It's all downhill from there. I guessed every twist and turn and guessed who the killer was before any revealing was done. The only thiing I didn't predict was the ending, which is so ridiculously stupid that not even Nostradamus could have seen it coming. Do whatever you must to skip this piece of garbage. "Heck nah." Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Cute,daring and entertaining. I can't beleive i don't remember this movie coming out. widely over looked, it has charm, and magic. when A boy recieves a gift in the mail and opens it, he finds a 'Bulls Privates' wrapped and aged perfectly, freaked out he reads the card, letting him know that he has 3 wishes and this "thing" can grant it. "Why not whats the worst that could happen,right?". for every wish is a death that follows.. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
