10 Awesome Characters Trapped In TERRIBLE Horror Movies
8. Meredith McNeil - Wish Upon
One of the most widely-ridiculed mainstream horror films of recent years, Wish Upon boasts an intriguing premise albeit one that it totally squanders through its horrible execution.
High-schooler Clare Shannon (Joey King) comes into possession of a music box which will grant her seven wishes, yet in the tradition of all monkey's paw stories, each wish results in the death of someone close to her.
It's an insanely stupid film which fails to appreciate how unlikeable its protagonist is for continuing to make wishes even as the bodies keep piling up.
The only character in the film to significantly call Clare out about this is her friend Meredith (Sydney Park), who in an hilarious scene calls Clare a "selfish bowl of b*tch sauce" for using her wishes for self-serving purposes, especially given the rising body count.
Amid a bland ensemble of characters, Meredith is really the only one with any, well, character, and who actually reacts somewhat realistically to the situation.
In a better movie she would've been the protagonist, but instead she ends up killed in an elevator accident after Clare makes a wish to be popular. Boo.
