Bear is deeply in love with his friend Nikki and wishes she would return his feelings. When he discovers a mysterious “One Wish Willow” in a shop, he makes exactly that wish—and it comes true. But Nikki’s affection quickly turns into a terrifying, uncontrollable obsession. She becomes increasingly violent, hurting herself and others, as their relationship descends into supernatural horror. Trapped by the consequences of his own wish, Bear must find a way to stop the nightmare. This film was both terrific and terrifying. It made me jump more than once and even gave me goosebumps. It’s not the kind of film I would usually watch, but I thought it was excellent.
“Bear: Nikki, what are you doing?
Nikki: Well, if I have the bed all to myself tonight, I’ll lay there warm. Until slowly, I feel cold, like I walked into a freezer. My hands will feel like they’re full of sand, like when you lay on them wrong. And that feeling will slowly spread across my entire body. You’re still in my heart, but you’re slipping. Any thought of pain or regret will slip away like a chemical switch. Even though it’s quiet in the room, somehow, it gets even quieter. It’s not painful. You just let go, everything you once were, and then there’s nothing. It’s not darkness, no, sweetie. Darkness is a color. There’s just… nothing…. Or you can stay!”
