The truth about wet spots, teachers unite, and I'm right, and you're wrong, places everyone, it's time for Last Looks.
If you made a call so you could chat with Paul to ask him what you really want to know
Or maybe just kick back, have some fun and relax, cause you want to hear an entertaining show
Sure some things they forgot, whether you noticed or not, so now it's time to set the record straight
It's the mini episode, Last Looks here we go, and start how did this get made
Hello my horny American daredevils and my French werewolves
I'm your host Paul Shearer and welcome to How Did This Get Made Last Looks
Where you get to voice your issues on American Werewolf in Paris and I know there are a lot
Plus I'll tell you what I'm watching, we'll reveal next week's movie
And as always I will try to solve your problems on Paul's helpline
But first things first, a big shout out to Devin Helmer
Devin composed that amazing opening theme song to Last Looks, Devin that was Aces
I've never used that term before but I feel like it's appropriate after hearing that song
If you want to send a song to the show, we love them, we love to hear your songs
We love to have songs like Devin's songs that are good
So send them to us at HowDidThisGetMade at Earwolf.com
But keep them short 15 to 20 seconds is best
And just a little bit of housekeeping to get out of the way
How Did This Get Made is going back on tour at the end of the month
It is our big Halloween tour, it's our actually rescheduled summer tour
So if you had tickets for the summer tour, those tickets are still good, can't wait to see it
But maybe you couldn't go to our summer tour
Now it's a Halloween tour and you can buy tickets fresh
Tickets are still available for Indianapolis, Detroit, Cleveland and Chicago
Just a handful in Chicago, but we would love to see you out
And we would love to see you in your best Halloween costume
That's right, we want you to come dressed as your favorite How Did This Get Made character
Maybe that's Jason, maybe that's me, maybe that's the epitome of what Tall John is
We've never really seen Tall John, even though I am Tall John
There is a Tall John costume, I don't know
And as always, if you can't think of anything, just get some red pantyhose
And come as Sean Connery's character from Zardaz
If you want to find out what movies we're talking about, just go to HDTGM.com
You can get tickets there as well
And if you live on the West Coast
We might have one more opportunity for you to come see us on tour
Stay tuned for an announcement about that in just a little bit of time
Not LA, but close
Plus, I just want to give a shout out to our Discord
Our Discord is amazing
They made the big move this year to go from the dying
How Did This Get Made message boards on the old Earwolf website
They came over, they trusted me to start this Discord
And it's been amazing
And you know what, there's been one thing since this show has started
That has been requested more than anything else
It's not a movie, but it is control
It is control, and we are finally going to give you some control
Because we're letting you pick a movie for this podcast
That's right, we've never let you do it
Why? We don't trust you
We trust Averil
Averil is an amazing producer
She picks great, great films
But you know what?
The Discord is great
And now I'm giving my trust to you
And you're going to pick it
That's right, and if you have not been on our Discord yet
Go check it out at discord.gg slash hgtdm
You can also go to my Discord at discord.gg slash paulshear
And you can vote for the first time ever on what movie you want us to do
Is it Phantom of the Paradise?
Antitrust
Making Contact, a.k.a. Joey
Dracula 2000
Doppelganger
Mother May I Sleep with Danger
Titanic, The Legend Goes On
Or Plan 9 from Outer Space
I mean, a real eclectic group of films here
Vote, and we will pick the one with the most votes
Unless we really don't like it
But you know what?
I actually think that this is a great list
We can't go wrong here
So get on that Discord, discord.gg slash hgtgm
To tell us what you want us to cover
Alright, anyway, let's get into it, people
I know we talk a lot about movies
But there are bigger things out there in the world
You got problems?
Let me solve them
It is time for Paul's Helpline
I woke up this morning with a big lump on my balls
Yeah, call my doctor
No, I think I better call Paul
I better call Paul
You better call Paul
I woke up this morning with a no-tech to my wall
Said I'm leaving you for your brother
So I think you better call Paul
You better call Paul
You better call Paul
You better call Paul
Ooh, like that theme
That is from John Cohen Artistry
I like that
Okay, here we go people
You know the drill
You give me a call
And you ask me questions
And sometimes we get questions that we really can't answer
Because last week we had a teacher call from Florida
Who wanted to know how to raise awareness for the plight of teachers
There's so many things going on in Florida
And we thought that this is a very interesting conversation
To open to our Discord and to everybody who listened to the show
And we got so many great words of wisdom and advice
You can read all of that on the Paul Helpline section of our Discord
But I thought this phone call from Daphne was pretty great
Hey, my name is Daphne
And I'm actually calling to respond to Janet from Florida
Who is the former teacher who was asking a question
How to raise awareness and help get her voice heard on a larger scale
I'm a former teacher
And I've actually worked with reporters for the last few years
To help bring awareness to this exact issue
So I agree with your recommendation for her to go to TikTok
There's actually a hashtag
It's teacher quit talk and none of that's silly
But that is where a lot of former teachers are sharing their stories
And building a community
And I know for a fact that reporters are following that hashtag
Because they found me on there
And that's where they tell me that they're finding some of the teachers that they're interviewing
On a local level, get school board members that are elected
That are going to fight for teachers
That is just such an important thing for everybody to really know about what they can do
Anyhow, if I could connect with Janet in one way
I would tell her to connect with me at my Instagram account
At teacher career coach
Because of the large audience that I have in this work
Reporters do reach out to me to match them specifically with teachers who have left in specific areas
Or for specific reasons for their interviews
So I'd love to connect with her or anyone else
Thanks, thanks
Thank you Daphne
Look at that
People help people
Sometimes I help
Sometimes you help
But this is what I love
I love the conversation
So keep these helpline calls coming
I love them
Bigger the questions
Let's group think
Let's put it together
It'll take a couple of weeks for us to figure it out
Because people will be calling in and doing all this stuff
But anyway, give us a call
Leave some voicemails
Don't be shy
And you could just, you know
I don't know
I could be here to help you
Maybe I can give you plans for how to bail on
Going out with some friends one night
Or how to tell someone that you want to break up with them
Or I could solve what couples costume to wear for Halloween
I'm open to it all
Anyway, give us a call at 619 P-A-U-L-A-S-K
That's 619 Paul Ask
Alright, we'll be right back with your questions, comments and concerns
On American Werewolf in Paris
Okay, last week we talked at length
About American Werewolf in Paris
We had questions
We might have even missed a few things
Actually, we missed a lot
Because a lot of people felt
Like we desperately needed to see
American Werewolf in London
To see all the in-jokes that we missed
But you know what?
We don't care
We don't care
Maybe we'll do it on unspooled
But right now, we went in
Just experiencing this movie
Like every teen went to go see
American Werewolf in Paris
Anyway, you're gonna fill us in
You're gonna tell us everything that we missed
Everything that we got wrong
In a little section we like to call
Corrections and omissions
Thank you, Sean Fogel
Great theme
People, I'm excited
First of all, I'm excited because
I feel vindicated
We'll get to that in a second
But secondly, we're gonna be talking a lot
About the Eiffel Tower today
That's right, a lot of
Eiffel Tower-related content
And we'll start off with Dr. Gutt's
10.03
I would not have guessed that this film
Would have so many similarities to another
How did this get made film, A View to a Kill
Both films feature a woman jumping
Off the Eiffel Tower
Both feature the protagonist
Stealing a Frenchman's car
And the victim overreacting
In response to the carjacking
And both have villains with connections
To Nazism
Given all these parallels
I am now disappointed that when
Tom Everett Scott and Julie Bowen
Go to dinner, they are not watching that woman
From Avtech perform her
Butterfly Pavilion show
Yes, you know what? I still love those
Butterfly puppets, they were pretty great
That's one of my favorite moments
In View to a Kill, which is saying
A lot about that movie
Alright, GT75 writes
It is possible
To bungee jump off the Eiffel Tower
But not like they did it in the movie
Back in 1987, the creator
Of bungee jumping
Jumped from underneath
The second floor of the tower
Allowing him to fall straight down
The center through the large
Opening in the middle of the first
Floor observation deck
The falls only about 370 feet
But it would be more in line
With the amount of rope
That Tom Everett Scott had
And he has put
A clip here in Wow, it is
Impressive, first of all
Why would you not do the thing
That is the thing that's already been done
It's right there for you
I guess it's not that exciting, but you could
Probably have done it practically
So it would have been way more interesting
Anyway, we're going to put that clip
In the show notes so you can check it out
If you're not on the discord, but I love
That the creator of bungee jumping
Went to the Eiffel Tower
This movie makes me mad
Corgi Herder writes, before the main character
Sees the woman jump off the Eiffel Tower
He's looking at a notebook of calculations
And nothing he has written down makes sense
Okay, this is what I love
Getting into the math
The listed wind speed is 28 miles
Per hour You don't want a bungee jump
With significant winds
Next to a structure yet
You know what, even if someone who doesn't bungee jump
I get that Number two, with his crew
Drawing the jump is close
To the tower's height of a thousand feet
They're not at the very top
But for reference
If they're close, the record
For a bungee jump off a fixed object
Is 764 feet
Off the Macau Tower
So, alright, that would be
I mean, look, they are on a daredevil
To a man, they gotta go high
The guy in the crowd was wrong
Tom Everett Scott does list
The correct acceleration of gravity
Oh, okay, wait
Now there's some defense
The guy probably assumed it was written as meters
Not feet
But that's still not
Helpful for calculating a bungee jump attempt
You need spring
Force formula
To figure out the length
Of the bungee needed
Not how fast you will free fall
In a vacuum
So, boom!
A math slam!
Corgi Herter coming to play
Not happy that they have not won
The
The correction and omission in a while
And they really wanted to
Serve it up
Silence of the Grams writes
FYI, Paul, Warren Zivon's song
Werewolves of London is not
In the original
Film
Really?
I know that Warren Zivon
Wrote that song in like 10 minutes
And it became the biggest hit
Of his career
And the rest of his work is not like that at all
And I love that scene
On
Larry Sander's show
Where Warren Zivon is the musical guest
And he's just like, please don't make me play that song
And then they make him play that song
And that was like the first time I realized
That he hated
That song
And what a, like what a travesty
Like that he has an amazing body
Of work
And like a fuck around song
Took off, there's an album
Going off here on a tangent really quick
Van Morrison was in a record contract
And he had to record like 70 tracks
Or
Release 70 tracks, do something
With like 70 tracks
Before he could get out of his contract
Someone will be able to correct me on all this
But who cares, because the point is not
About the tracks, it's about this
That album is released
Bootleg
And it is one of my favorite things
Because it's like
Van Morrison going
This is song
45
45
Is the number
Of this song
And it's all
Just him fucking around
Just trying to make enough songs
I think they had to be a certain length
So it's like that guy who just
Says everybody's name and poop
Which if you've not done that on Spotify
Just type in your name and poop
And you'll see what you get
And I think the artist is called
The man who sings about poop in toilet bowls
Let's go to the phone
Damon from DC, what do you got?
Hi Paul, this is Damon from Washington DC
Come with
One thing from American
Werewolf in Paris
I find it so weird how
Every scene seems to lead back
To Sarah Fiend's villa
Specifically, when they're in
The
Home and they fall through the floor
Into the water, somehow
That water system leads
To a tiny door in Sarah Fiend's basement
Like what's that about
And also then
When Tom Everett Scott runs away
From Claude
For the second time
That he leaves out in his underwear
Gives him the slip and then immediately
Comes back and so like Claude
Would never think to come look
For him there
And yet somehow while Claude
Has run off
To chase him, he's also managed
To steal all of the serum
So some really weird things happening
Around always getting back to Sarah Fiend's villa
In that basement
Love the show
And can't wait to see you out on the road sometime
I mean, Damon
You are completely right
I didn't think about that
Why is the world connected to this little villa
That seems so far out of town
And I would say probably because
Of budget
That really is
It's so stupid when you
Listed them all together like that
Great point there, Damon
DC, we'll be back one day
I loved our shows in DC, that was a blast
Let's go
To Kid from Los Angeles
With a correction
Hey, this is Kid from Los Angeles
I don't think that the
The guy who turned
The main character into a werewolf
Is the same guy
Who turned the French girl into a werewolf
Because
There's a scene when she's on top
Of him
And
She's talking to her dead mom
When she's like
You've got to be more careful about who you turned
And she mentions that
Whatever the skinheads name is
It wasn't my fault because
He stole my blood
I thought that the idea was
He like
Used her and stole her blood somehow
To become a werewolf so that he could like
Turn his like other
Skinhead followers into werewolves
That was at least my impression
Yes, Kid, you are right
We actually discussed this a little bit
On the live show, we cut it out
Not because of any other reason
Then because we wanted to hear it
From your mouth
You said it to Sinkley
Kid, you are right
He stole her blood to turn himself
And other skinheads into werewolves
Alright, and let's go
To our final one
From Ryan, from Livermore
It's another omission
What do you got?
Hi, Paul, this is Ryan from Livermore
I guess I'm calling about an omission
From the last episode
So you guys never settled on what actually cures
Seraphine
And when I watched it
She gets in the back of the ambulance
Because she was not made into
A werewolf by Claude
And she didn't eat Claude's heart
So her cure had to be the cure
Her father was trying to find
And so she gets this injection
In the back of the ambulance
And really fast the guy says
We're losing her, we're losing her
Give her an accelerant, but it's like
With a thick French accent, you can't understand it
And the subtitles even say inaudible
But she gets an accelerant
On the syringe when she's getting the injection
And like way too long
For it to not be an important part of the movie
So I think that's what's supposed to be
The cure
For her werewolfism
And they just, you know
Then with happily ever after, I guess after that
So anyway, love the show
Great, see you later
Okay, I like this, yes
She is cured by the adrenaline
Accelerant, but that's why I believed
That the end of the movie
Which we'll get to in a second where they have to keep on jumping off of things
Was to keep it at bay
Like she always needs that kind of
Accelerant injection
It's not just one and done
Can't be, can it?
Ryan?
Can it only be one?
I don't know. Alright, let's go to the discord
Because there are people on there that are going to be backing me up
So Matt Harvest writes this
Paul, you're not the only one who thought the bungee jumping at the end
Was to stave off being a werewolf
I love screen rant
Michael Kennedy writes
The ending of the film which sees the lead couple control their werewolf transformations
By doing adrenaline fueled
Activities like bungee jumping
Is also an eye roller
So boom, me and screen rant
Are on the same page
And now
Guess what, it's heating up
People are starting to get on the same page
Because Jimbalaya
Jimbalaya agrees
That's right, Jimbalaya agrees
Despite the no reactions from the audience
And on the discord
Julie Delpy turns into a werewolf
When injected with a depressant
By her stepfather
At the end of the movie she's injected with adrenaline
And it seems to have the opposite effect
As Ryan says noted
It's implied that Delpy's mother
Is a love interest from the first film
Meaning her lycanthropy
Was inherited at birth from her father
Unlike Andy, her curse couldn't be lifted
Only controlled hence
Delpy continues to
Perform
Adrenaline inducing acts
In order to stave off a transformation
This
Is likely while the original storyline
Was altered to include the daredevil
Tour
Bam, bam, bam
As our new producer Scott says
Sorry Julie Bowen
Let's change it to justice
For Paul Shear
By the way, did a little charity event
For
You know
With the LA food bank
And a lot of people were tweeting at me
Like did you tell her, did you tell her
No, I didn't tell her that we made a shirt
With her face on it that said justice for Julie Bowen
It would be impossible for me
To explain all the ins and outs of that
If she finds out about it
I have no problem with it
But for me to like lay that on
In a casual way
I think it would come off
Absolutely insane. Anyway grumble bottom writes
Okay
Anatomy time
The American werewolf in Paris animators
Don't know a dang thing about canine bone
Structure of the transformation sequence
Shows what appears to be the lower leg bones
The tibia and the fibula
Cracking and angling back to create
An oft-referenced dog leg
I know a lot of people think
That this is a canine's knee
But knees don't go in that direction
The so-called dog leg
Is in the canine's heel
To make an analogy
To human anatomy
Canines basically walk around on their fingers and toes
The other hand and foot and bones
Are elongated as compared
To humans. That's all
There's no backward bones
Rick Baker got his
Shit right in American werewolf
In London showing how humans
Hands and feet stretched
Out to take on
A canine form
By the way, we did show the full sequence
In the theater there
Rick Baker, that scene is
Amazing. This one's from
HXCKidVinny
On Twitter. Did you all forget
You had a bit about sleeping in the wet
Spot on the league?
Yeah, I did
We did a lot. We did that show for seven years
I don't remember every moment of it
But Scott pulled the clip
Here we go
This is from the league
Talking about wet spots
Get ready
Juices
What's wrong with that? What are you going to call it?
How about bitters or spritz?
Those are mixology terms. That's what I call it
Love phone
That is horrific
What do you do to clean up the wet spot?
Sophia makes me put a towel down
You're showing her buddy
You have to embrace the wet spot
Do what I do. I sleep in it
Like a pig who lives in his own slop
Anyway, so many great corrections
And omissions this week. But I gotta tell you
There's only one winner here
And as much as I want to give it
To Jembalaya. Because Jembalaya really
Breaks it all down. Jembalaya
Clearly the smartest. But you know what?
I feel like Corgi Herter
Has been working hard
To get back to this winner position
And you know what? Corgi Herter
We're giving it to you. That's right
You win nothing
But you get this amazing song
From Sean Fogle. Hit it!
You win
Nothing
You win
Nothing
You win
Nothing
All right. If you want to chime in
With your own thoughts about the latest episode
Hit up the discord at discord.gg
Httgm or call me
At 619 Paul
Ask. All right. Coming up
I'll tell you all the things that you should be watching
But right now I'm going to give you a special one
If you like The Good Fight
Which I love
It's the spin-off of The Good Wife
It is such a good
Show and only gets better and better and better
How does it get better?
Mandy Patampkin playing a judge
Who's like on a Netflix show
That's like People's Court
In the back of a copier shop
Elaine May as
The ghost
Of
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Let's talk about
Andre Brower on the show
Let's talk about Delroy Lindo
Just crushing it
So many great people
Come in and out of the show
And I'm very lucky to be one of those people
On the final season
And I come in
And I'm a real
Dickhead
But I love it
The show is such a treat to be on
What a blast
So that's a little tease
I'll be talking more about what you should be watching
In Paul's Pick
But before we even get into any of that
We've had so many amazing
Second Opinion songs on the road
And at the Dallas show we had some great ones
So I'm going to give you a couple more
Of our favorite ones
We'll be right back after these songs
I see a bad movie rising
Hold on, did he just sniff her butt hole
Do all French wear wolves just wear sleeveless shirts
I'll go to Amazon tonight
I got some dumb shit I can ride
You say one star
I got five
Thank you, I'm Chris
Thank you
Alright, come on forward
We know what's done now
Now it's time for Second Opinions
Wear wolf boobs
Daredevil bro dudes
In Paris there is no explanation
Very massacre clubs
In fetishization
Bang on graves
Jump in fountains
And there'll be too much evaporation
If you think this film sucks
You're mistaken
If you want a second
You killed it
My name is Mark
Mark everybody
Sorry Mark, that was great
You went out on a high note
You know, if you're listening to How Did This Get Made
You might be saying, wow, I love that you have
These two episodes a week
One of those reasons we have two episodes a week
Is because we're doing something called Mat Name Monday
Mat Name Monday is a chance for us to revisit
Old movies in our back catalogue
That have not been out from behind the paywall
In a very long time
And last week on Unspooled
We did Midsommar
And so we figured we would pair that with
The Wicker Man
Jonah Ray was on that episode
It's a great one, not the bees
Classic crazy Nick Cage
So, you know
Enjoy your podcast, listen to
A Little Wicker Man, listen to A Little Midsommar
And you'll be disturbed by the fact that
I don't even really get mad
At the cult that much
I just talk about some other shit
People have been like, why do you let the cult off so easy?
You know, they seem nice
Anyway, next week's Mat Name Monday
Continues our How
Did This Get Made, that's right
Our horror month
Here
We continue our werewolf theme
With howling to your sister's werewolf
Featuring Tignitaro
And Stephanie Eileen, we actually recorded that
Was that in DC?
I think it was
So look at that, okay
I love it
I love our Mat Name Monday
So every Monday you'll get a special treat
And if you want to listen to a little bit more behind the scenes info about that
You can watch my video series
On my YouTube page
Just go to my YouTube page, Paul Shear
Alright, we spent a lot of time hearing from you
But no one
Has asked me
What I'm up to, what I'm into
That's why it is now time for Paul's
Pics
Of the Week
Alright people, let's get into it
I am a huge fan of Mission Impossible
I love Christopher Macquarie
And there was an
Empire Magazine podcast
A handful of years ago
I feel like it was like a six hour
Podcast with Macquarie
Close to it
Something giant like that
And it was amazing
Listening to Christopher Macquarie talk about how he makes movies
Is just
I love it so much
It's spontaneous
It's exciting
It's really super visceral
And there's a podcast called Light the Fuse
Light the Fuse
You're not listening to Light the Fuse
You're missing out
They have been breaking down
Every aspect of the Mission Impossible series
Whether that is
Reading
First draft scripts
Talking to directors who were maybe attached
Talking to directors who actually directed them
Brian De Palma is on the show
They talk to visual effects people
They've talked to Christopher Macquarie
They get into every little nook
And cranny about Mission Impossible
And you know I love those movies so much
And on episode 200
Macquarie comes back
And brings on a loveboat cast
Of stars
Which
Is topped off by Tom Cruise
And listening to Tom Cruise and Macquarie
Talk about this brand new Mission Impossible
With Nick Offerman on there as well
A lot of the stars of Top Gun
Because they also did a spin off podcast called Top Fuselage
Which is all
About Top Gun and Top Gun Maverick
It's a great episode
Light the Fuse podcast
The podcast is great too to check it out
Highly highly recommend
Anytime you can listen to Christopher Macquarie
And Tom Cruise talk about
How they make their insane
Films
Now
I also want to talk about
A book that I just finished reading
And I absolutely love
Betty Gilpin who you know from
Glow and the movie The Hunt
Which is fantastic
And tomorrow war
Betty Gilpin
Released a book
It's called All the Women in My Brain
And Other Concerns
And it's a memoir
And it's stream of consciousness
It is
Just phenomenal
And I loved it
I read it so quickly
I've been on like a little bit
Of a book tear as a matter of fact
Betty Gilpin's book is so much fun
I read and listened to it
I went back and forth on it
And her reading her own words
Is I think even better
Than the book because it's such
An interesting pace and tone
That the audio book really
Serves it well
Also a good friend of mine
Is Justin Halpern
And Justin
Is the creator of Shit My Dad Says
You know that famous giant thing
That happened that took over the internet
By storm
And Justin wrote these books
About his dad
That I think it was like the twitter stream
And then it was the books
And then it was a tv show which he was
Didn't create but he was you know
On the side of
But this is like really
His dad and him
And a journey between him and his dad
And it was so great to go back
And listen to it like when a little bit of the
Some circumstance of that
Went down because it is so
Legitimately funny, Shit My Dad Says
The book is
Just a great coming of age story
With this really interesting dad
Who is a scientist
And
The relationship between him and his son
Is truly just
Really really great
Now that is a book that I recommend
Not listening to the audio book of
Because the guy who does it
To fucking character
I mean I feel like
Like four of the voices in there are
Variations of South Park
Characters. It's like Cartman
Again
But yeah so definitely check out that book
Shit My Dad Says is a great read
And you know what we're coming up to the holidays
Maybe the great stock and stuff or get it now
What else do I want to talk about here
Oh my goodness
I got to see RRR
RRR
Is a
Film that if you've not yet seen
I think Jason and I will talk about it on one of these
Quarchats which we got to retitle
What's a good title for Quarchat let me know
With
900 people at the Man's Chinese Theatre
Last Friday night the director
Came and we got to speak to him
This movie is going to make a run at the academy awards
And it should
It is absolutely
Amazing
Now here's the thing
You have not seen RRR
And it's a three and a half hour movie and I got to tell you
I went in just going like I'll watch the first 15 minutes
And I was like holy shit this movie
I couldn't stop watching it
Now
I'm going to mispronounce this
And I apologize for mispronouncing this
But Bahubali
The beginning
Is one of two films there's two
Parts of it and I think that it might even be
Better than RRR
I don't know
It's really really good they're all on
Netflix RRR
Bahubali the beginning and the conclusion
Check these
Films out
He also does a remake of the fly
Like this director
SS Rajamuli
Is truly a treat
And
We got to learn so much
The Q&A I put up on my Instagram page
But you can go check it out at BeyondFest
Me and Amy Nicholson
For 45 minutes take a lot of questions from the audience
Anyway those are some of the things
That I think you should be checking in
Okay let's talk about next week's movie
We're going from a literal werewolf paw
To a figurative monkey paw
That's right next week we are watching
2017's Wish Upon
Starring Joey King and Ryan
Here's a short breakdown of the plot
Teenage girl played by Joey King
Is gifted a music box that promises to grant
Its owner seven wishes
At first her life starts to radically improve
But she quickly discovers
She must pay a deadly price
For each wish
Alright Rotten Tomatoes
Gives this film a 19% on the tomato meter
And Nat Zoller Sights from RogerEbert.com
Says the best thing you can say about it
Is that the acting is alright
There are a few decently executed moments
Of nastiness
The whole thing is in focus
And you can understand what's being said
Wow you know what I agree with all of that
But let's go do the trailer
You know that wish box that you died
Got you?
Has it played any music yet?
What? Why?
The music ends
The blood price is paid
For every wish someone you love
Dies
I wish
I didn't know that any of this would happen
Oh god
Wish upon
Ready PG-13
Wow

For free on Tubi or Pluto TV
