Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

For fans of the slasher genre, this film has it all, so how did it go so horribly wrong? All the elements are there - a killing to set the stage; a jealous boyfriend; a weird hunter with a crossbow; six hot lesbians under canvas with the prospect of girl-on-girl action; it is very much slasher by numbers but the numbers don't add up.(SPOILERS ahead) The film starts well enough when we realise that there is a maniac on the loose. Then the main characters are introduced so we meet the friends and lovers of Susan, who is hosting the birthday party in the woods. This is where it all breaks down. Although the action seems to take place in a very confined area, no-one hears shouts and screams from people nearby and at night, lights from cars and campfires seem invisible. The worst aspect comes near the end when the identity of the killer is revealed and with a further revelation, the viewer realises that he/she has been led up the garden path.The quality of the film as a whole leaves a lot to be desired. It looks low-budget and the acting is a bit mediocre. There is a bit of lesbian kissing and the nude scenes look to have been done using body-doubles. There is nothing to recommend in this film so only 1 star.

Susan invites all of her ex-lovers on her annual Birthday Camping trip. The six women are instantly at each other's throats. After they realize that Michelle never showed up, they start disappearing one by one. Everyone's a suspect, including the crazed bow-wielding redneck who keeps crashing the party and a jealous boyfriend of one of the women."Make a Wish" is directed by a lesbian and intended for a lesbian audience, and I think it might be one of the first horror films to fit this category. There are lots of humorous queer "inside jokes" and it is refreshing to see a cast of mostly queer lead characters in a horror flick. Unfortunately, many of the characters are one-dimensional clichés. We have the "aggressive vegan," the weird wiccan, the slut, and the "dyke-turned-straight-girl." While the movie is inherently progressive, and much more queer than most horror movies with lesbian characters, its portrayal of lesbians is very limited.The movie is surprisingly well-made for having such a low-budget. It was shot on hand-held digital video, but whoever shot it has a great eye and a steady hand. The acting is mostly mediocre (save for the lead actress, who does a wicked job). While most of the kills aren't shown and there is little gore (according to the director, they only had a couple hundred bucks for make-up budget, which is impressive because there are some really inventive effects here!), the deaths are pretty nasty. It isn't a scary movie by any means, but I admit that I was surprised to find out who the killer was."Make a Wish," the first lesbian slasher, isn't a great movie. However, it is a good time and better than most recent Z-graders. I'm not sure many typical horror fans would like it, but I'll recommended it to folks who like both "The L Word" and "April Fools Day." My Rating: 5.5/10

*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*You know, I am such an unashamed fan of all things lesbian that even the most tired movie still feels like good old exploitation to me. Even the most sincere lesbian love story, ("Better than Chocolate", etc), is a treasure trove of goodness. So whether it be Russian school girls singing about their love or a bunch of chicks on a camping trip, I dig lesbians! But isn't "Make A Wish" just a stinky pretend slasher movie wrapped up in lesbian relationship issues? Why yes it is. And what's wrong with that?Well, as it turns out, quite a bit. "Make a Wish" is a pretty sorry excuse of a horror flick. The kills are weak and the gore effects are pathetic. The only reason to sit through this one is the girl/girl make out sessions. There are a couple of kissing scenes and one or two sex scenes. All of these are good and made my wish come true. "Make a wish" is certainly not a good movie but it did have that one element I love. You know, "The L word".

Just what we need--a lesbian slasher flick! A bunch of women (straight and gay) go camping to celebrate their birthdays. Most of them have slept with each other to provide "tension" to this. One by one they're picked off by an unseen killer. Who is doing it...and why? And how about the psycho that just escaped from the mental hospital?Purportedly this is supposed to be a fun take off of horror films with lesbian sex. It does have all the clichés of slasher films but provides no humor, insight or ANYTHING to them...it's just another stupid, dull slasher film...the only twist is that it's all lesbians. The acting is bad all around, the killings have some of the worst special effects I've ever seen, the script isn't funny or suspenseful, there are HUGE gaps in the plot and the identity of the killer is laughably predictable. Pointless and stupid--avoid.
