Plot
Directed by Sharon Ferranti, Make a Wish is a lesbian friendly send-up of the classic slasher films Halloween and Friday the 13th. The film revolves around an annual birthday camping trip, which finds a group of women -- all the ex-flames of Susan, the birthday girl -- at the mercy of a vicious serial killer. Tension rises as the women disappear rapidly, and things only get worse by run-ins with the current boyfriend of one of Susan's exes and a scraggly, crossbow-wielding hunter. Meanwhile, internal conflict also threatens the group's survival as a whole, as flirtation and perceived betrayals more often than not lead one of the campers to leave the campsite in a huff, only to walk into the murderer's clutches. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide
