10 "New" Movies That Just Ended Up Ripping Things Off

3. Wish Upon Is PG-13 Final Destination

Seemingly made for the three people who wished the Final Destination franchise had a tame PG-13 rating instead, this past summer's rancid horror flick revolves around a young woman who finds a mysterious music box which will grant her seven wishes...albeit with grim consequences.

The film centers around a number of comically over-elaborate "accidental" death sequences, such as one poor sap getting her ponytail caught in the garbage disposal, an unlikely elevator accident, and a totally random chainsaw decapitation.

It's largely bloodless and awkwardly edited as such, but in all honesty, it's just surprising it took this long for someone to make Final Destination for Babies.
