JHB and CPT readers, how would you like to join us for an early screening of Wish Upon starring Joey King and Ryan Phillippe? Be careful what you WISH UPON. If you love horror films, you don’t want to miss this supernatural horror film by Annabelle director John R. Leonetti.
“Fun “Wish Upon” Exceeds Expectations” – Illinois Times
“The splatter is deployed cautiously and sometimes wittily …” – New York Times
“… Echoes of Final Destination and Carrie, Wish Upon delivers the gruesome goods.” – Boston Herald
“… Makes up for the fact that it’s about nothing by being incredibly entertaining.” – New York Magazine/Vulture
“… Wish Upon offers a welcome glimmer of magic.” – Newsday
“Teen-oriented thriller is a serviceable and well-produced slice of supernatural horror.” – ComingSoon.net
“The film’s final moments are a total gut punch I definitely did not see coming…” – Daily Dead
Here is another awesome opportunity to join in on the fun and interact with some of the other readers from the site. Thanks to Times Media Films, on the 5th October 2017, we’ll be hosting a special early screening of Wish Upon, an update on the classic Monkey’s Paw “be careful what you wish for” breed of horror.
Twelve years after discovering her mother’s suicide, 17-year-old CLARE SHANNON (Joey King) is bullied in high school, embarrassed by her manic, hoarder father JONATHAN (Ryan Phillippe) and ignored by her longtime crush. All that changes when her father comes home with an old music box whose inscription promises to grant its owner seven wishes.
While Clare is initially sceptical of this magic box, she can’t help but be seduced by its dark powers, and is thrilled as her life radically improves with each wish. Clare finally has the life she’s always wanted and everything seems perfect – until the people closest to her begin dying in violent and elaborate ways after each wish. Clare realizes that she must get rid of the box, but finds herself unable and unwilling to part with her new-and-improved life – leading her down a dark and dangerous path.
Age Restriction: PG-13 (for violent and disturbing images, thematic elements and language)
